ML-DSA (Module-Lattice Digital Signature Algorithm) for Lux
FIPS 204 compliant implementation of ML-DSA (formerly known as CRYSTALS-Dilithium) post-quantum signatures.
Overview
This package provides both pure Go and CGO implementations of ML-DSA, offering quantum-resistant digital signatures for the Lux blockchain ecosystem.
Security Levels
-
ML-DSA-44 (Dilithium2): NIST Level 2 security
- Public key: 1,312 bytes
- Private key: 2,560 bytes
- Signature: 2,420 bytes
-
ML-DSA-65 (Dilithium3): NIST Level 3 security (recommended)
- Public key: 1,952 bytes
- Private key: 4,032 bytes
- Signature: 3,309 bytes
-
ML-DSA-87 (Dilithium5): NIST Level 5 security
- Public key: 2,592 bytes
- Private key: 4,896 bytes
- Signature: 4,627 bytes
Features
- Dual Implementation: Pure Go (via Cloudflare CIRCL) and optimized C (via pq-crystals/dilithium)
- FIPS 204 Compliant: Follows the NIST ML-DSA standard
- Automatic Fallback: Uses CGO when available, falls back to pure Go
- Full Test Coverage: Comprehensive tests including cross-compatibility
Building
Pure Go (default)
go build ./...
With CGO support
# Build the C library first
cd c
make
# Then build with CGO enabled
CGO_ENABLED=1 go build ./...
Building all security levels
./build.sh
Usage
import "github.com/luxfi/lux/crypto/mldsa"
// Generate key pair (ML-DSA-65 recommended)
priv, err := mldsa.GenerateKey(rand.Reader, mldsa.MLDSA65)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// Sign a message
message := []byte("Hello, post-quantum world!")
signature, err := priv.Sign(rand.Reader, message, nil)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// Verify signature
valid := priv.PublicKey.Verify(message, signature)
fmt.Printf("Signature valid: %v\n", valid)
// Use CGO implementation if available
if mldsa.UseCGO() {
privCGO, _ := mldsa.GenerateKeyCGO(rand.Reader, mldsa.MLDSA65)
sigCGO, _ := mldsa.SignCGO(privCGO, rand.Reader, message, nil)
validCGO := mldsa.VerifyCGO(&privCGO.PublicKey, message, sigCGO)
fmt.Printf("CGO signature valid: %v\n", validCGO)
}
Integration with Lux
This implementation is designed to integrate with:
- C-Chain: EVM precompiled contracts for ML-DSA verification
- X-Chain: UTXO-based transactions with post-quantum signatures
- P-Chain: Validator staking with quantum-resistant keys

Security Considerations
- Quantum Resistance: Secure against attacks by quantum computers
- Side-Channel Protection: Implementation includes countermeasures
- Deterministic Signatures: No randomness required for signing (uses deterministic nonce)
- Key Storage: Larger keys require secure storage solutions
