Styx Protocol · Legal · Open source

Licenses and attributions.

Styx Protocol, formerly Protocol 01, is assembled out of other people's work. This page names that work, states the licence it arrives under, and links to the project itself. Rows that named a package this repository does not use were deleted rather than reworded. Upstream repositories still get renamed, transferred and deleted, so a link here can go stale between edits; where a project's own repository has disappeared, the row points at the registry the dependency is installed from.

Styx Protocol: core protocol and applications

These are the direct dependencies of the wallet, the extension, the web app, the Solana programs and the prover service. Each row repeats the licence that project declares in its own package metadata, and links to the project's repository, or to its registry page where that repository no longer exists.

Two proof stacks appear below and they are not the same thing. The on-chain verifier is hash-based: winterfell, SHA-256 and Poseidon, with no elliptic curve anywhere in the proof. The older native Groth16 prover kept in services/prover does use a curve, BN254, which is why ark-bn254, ark-groth16 and ark-circom are listed here.

Only direct dependencies are named. A build resolves far more than this, and the count changes with every lockfile. Read the tables as an honest map of what the project chose, not as a complete bill of materials.

The authoritative licence for any package is the text in that package's own repository, not the identifier in our table. If an attribution here is missing or wrong, write to legal@protocol-01.com.

Read this before you rely on it

Two things a reader must not miss. Every package above carries transitive dependencies under their own terms, which this page does not enumerate, so a legal review cannot stop here. And the warranty disclaimer in the licence above is meant literally: this is unaudited devnet software, with no mainnet deployment.
