# Lux Network

> Post-quantum blockchain with 6 specialized chains, sub-second finality, and 15K+ TPS.

## About
Lux Network is a post-quantum secure blockchain platform featuring 6 specialized chains, each optimized for specific use cases. It achieves sub-second finality via the Quasar consensus protocol with throughput exceeding 15,000 transactions per second. Lux implements NIST-approved post-quantum cryptography (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA) to ensure long-term security against quantum computing threats.

## Chains
- **A-Chain (Asset Chain)**: Asset issuance, tokenization, and management
- **B-Chain (Bridge Chain)**: Cross-chain bridges and interoperability
- **C-Chain (Contract Chain)**: Smart contracts and EVM compatibility
- **D-Chain (Data Chain)**: On-chain data storage and indexing
- **Y-Chain (Yield Chain)**: DeFi protocols, yield farming, and staking
- **Z-Chain (Zero-Knowledge Chain)**: Privacy-preserving transactions with ZK proofs
