Lumoz Launches SVM as a Service, Supporting the Integration of ZK and TEE Multi-Proof for SVM L2

DATE POSTED:January 20, 2025
Background

In recent years, the rapid development of blockchain technology has catalyzed innovation across various sectors such as DeFi, NFTs, and AI. Solana, a high-speed, low-cost blockchain, has garnered significant attention thanks to its unique consensus mechanism and high throughput. In large-scale application environments, SVM-based L2 chains or application chains offer vast market potential.

\ Against this backdrop, Lumoz, based on the SVM execution layer, integrates cutting-edge ZK and TEE technologies to propose an innovative SVM chain solution (Lumoz SVM Stack), offering a fresh perspective to the industry. With its efficient scaling architecture and optimized algorithms, Lumoz SVM Stack not only provides ultra-high transaction throughput and processing speeds for SVM chains but also ensures robust security and decentralization.

\

Architecture

Lumoz SVM Stack is a versatile L2 solution built on the SVM transaction execution layer, utilizing a modular architecture that divides functions into independent modules, ensuring flexibility and scalability. The architecture includes several core layers: Ethereum and Solana as settlement layers, Celestia, Avail, etc., for data availability, and support for SP1 and SGX proof types. These designs, coupled with the SVM execution environment, form an efficient and customizable modular Layer 2 solution. Ultimately, Lumoz SVM Stack aims to become the fastest and most versatile SVM-driven Layer 2 solution globally.

\ Solana lacks a global state tree, which is essential for securely settling off-chain execution results back to L1. To solve this, Lumoz combines the core functionality of the global state tree with a sparse Merkle tree (LSMT), using cryptography to verify execution results across the network’s scaling, ensuring the security and consistency of both on-chain and off-chain operations. This innovative solution not only enhances Lumoz's scalability and security but also provides a reliable cross-chain execution mechanism for the blockchain ecosystem.

\

\ Built on the Solana Agave client code, Lumoz SVM Stack ensures compatibility with the Solana mainnet while leveraging Solana's parallel execution capabilities and unique transaction data structure. Through optimizations in storage logic and performance parameters, Lumoz SVM Stack maximizes Solana's native performance advantages, further boosting system efficiency and scalability.

\ This architecture design allows for seamless migration of existing dApps from the Solana ecosystem to the Lumoz SVM Stack network without requiring any changes to program code. The solution reduces resource and cost requirements while maintaining consistency with Solana’s tools and developer stack, providing developers with lower migration costs and higher development efficiency.

Core Components
  • Shared Sequencer: Lumoz SVM Stack employs a decentralized and transparent transaction sequencing mechanism, ensuring efficient scalability and trustworthiness within the network. In terms of security, speed, and decentralization, the shared sequencer enhances system throughput and capacity by batching multiple transactions, reducing the number of individual transactions processed by the base layer. Additionally, Lumoz SVM Stack provides strong support for transaction sequencing, enhancing overall performance.
  • Stateless Validators: The stateless validator contract in Lumoz SVM Stack breaks down full validation tasks into smaller components and distributes them across the validator network. This design significantly reduces hardware requirements for participants, making it easier for nodes to join or leave the network without needing access to the full blockchain state. This not only enhances system flexibility but also lowers participation thresholds, encouraging broader node participation.
  • Data Availability: Although Solana imposes strict transaction size limits that can challenge aggregation-based data availability (DA) solutions, Lumoz SVM Stack extends the DA framework to overcome the limitations of Solana's native DA solution. This design ensures the security and decentralization of data management while retaining the ability to conduct data audits on Solana, ensuring blockchain auditability and transparency.

Key Technologies SVM Compatibility and Parallel Efficient Execution

Solana's SVM (Solana Virtual Machine) provides a highly efficient smart contract execution environment that supports parallel transaction processing and state-independent design. This allows the system to execute multiple transactions simultaneously, improving throughput and reducing latency. SVM supports languages such as Rust and C, enabling developers to build high-performance decentralized applications that drive rapid growth in the Solana ecosystem.

\ Importantly, SVM's parallel execution leverages Solana's unique transaction data structure. In Solana's network, each transaction initiator declares the account information required for reading and writing in advance. This structure enables SVM to efficiently process transactions in parallel, ensuring no conflicts in reading or writing to the same account. Consequently, merely adapting SVM to other execution frameworks does not provide the same advantages of parallel processing.

\ To maximize these benefits, Lumoz uses Solana Client as the foundational execution framework, fully exploiting SVM’s parallel execution capabilities, thereby ensuring efficient transaction processing and low-latency performance throughout the system.

Support for Multi-Proof

Lumoz offers a robust multi-proof pipeline capable of converting assembly-level instructions from different execution clients into algebraic or polynomial proof systems. This design enables Lumoz to integrate multiple backends, such as SuperNova, Halo2, and eSTARK, allowing for encoding arithmetic and moving away from reliance on a single protocol. This flexibility enhances scalability and adaptability.

\ In addition to ZK proofs, Lumoz innovatively incorporates SGX to generate proofs through Trusted Execution Environments (TEE). The code executed in SGX mirrors that executed in zkVM, serving as a lightweight execution client. This ensures that all proof systems validate the same underlying execution, facilitating potential data reuse. In SGX environments, necessary data is signed with standard ECDSA signatures, and the signing process is completed using SGX-specific private keys. The TEE guarantees both the confidentiality and integrity of computations, validating them through remote proofs.

\

TEE: Intel’s Software Guard Extensions (SGX) enables Trusted Execution Environments (TEE) by providing a set of security instructions embedded in certain Intel CPUs. This technology ensures strong cryptographic assurances, protecting computations in the "Secret" memory space from being accessed or observed by unauthorized parties.

\ This multi-proof pipeline design equips Lumoz with a more efficient, secure, and adaptable solution, optimizing performance and ensuring compatibility across platforms and protocols. It fosters innovation in decentralized verification and data security, advancing the forefront of blockchain technology.

SMT-based Cryptographic Settlement Protocol (LSMT)

Lumoz’s Sparse Merkle Tree (LSMT) is a pioneering cryptographic data structure that combines the strengths of traditional Merkle trees and Patricia trees, optimizing the storage of large numbers of key-value pairs. Unlike traditional Merkle trees, LSMT stores only the necessary nodes, typically those containing non-empty values or those on paths leading to values in the leaf nodes. This "sparse" design significantly reduces storage space requirements.

\ A key advantage of LSMT is its ability to generate compact Merkle proofs that verify whether a specific key-value pair is included in the tree without revealing the exact value. This design improves both storage and computational efficiency, making LSMT especially suitable for scenarios that require efficient data consistency verification.

\ In Layer 2 solutions, LSMT plays a crucial role in state commitment and verification. State commitment involves submitting off-chain transactions (Layer 1 state) to the Layer 2 solution. By submitting this state to Layer 1, participants in Layer 2 can validate the validity of off-chain transactions without disclosing the full state or requiring Layer 1 to process each transaction. This method enhances cross-chain verification, reduces dependency on the base layer, and boosts system scalability and privacy protection.

Conclusion

Lumoz, by combining SVM, ZK, and TEE technologies, offers a highly efficient, secure, and flexible SVM-based universal L2/application chain solution. Through the parallel processing advantages of the SVM execution layer and the use of Sparse Merkle Trees (LSMT) for data validation, Lumoz enhances transaction throughput and processing speeds while ensuring security and decentralization. Lumoz’s multi-proof pipeline technology, which includes zk and SGX proofs, strengthens secure transaction execution, improving cross-chain interaction and data processing efficiency.

\ As decentralized applications and blockchain technology evolve, Lumoz’s architecture provides a more flexible development environment, reduces transaction costs, and promotes the broader adoption of blockchain technology across industries. Looking ahead, Lumoz is poised to become one of the most versatile and scalable Layer 2 solutions, supporting the further development of public blockchains like Solana and laying the foundation for sustainable innovation within the blockchain ecosystem.
