Open source is the foundation. None of this — the light client, the miner, the wallet tooling, the DOB minter — would exist without the researchers and engineers who built the underlying protocols and published their work freely. This page is a small attempt to honour that.
⛓️ Nervos CKB Core
Protocol, VM & tooling
The foundation everything runs on.
The CKB full node in Rust. Our node dashboard, stratum proxy, whale bot, and light client all talk to it. Everything depends on this.
The spec our ESP32 light client implements from scratch in C. Every packet, handshake, and state machine in ckb-light-esp traces back to this document.
The P2P networking layer CKB nodes speak. Our light client implements the Tentacle handshake, Yamux multiplexing, and SecIO encryption natively in C to connect to the network.
CKB's canonical binary serialization format. Our light client implements Molecule parsing in C. The upcoming WyMolecule library is a full ESP32 port.
CKB's payment channel network — fast off-chain payments, on-chain settlement. We run two Fiber nodes (ckbnode + NucBox), built FiberQuest's tournament payment layer on top, and contributed the first open-source Node.js Fiber RPC client.
The first open-source Node.js client for the Fiber Network JSON-RPC API — built as part of FiberQuest during the Claw & Order hackathon (March 2026). Wraps all Fiber RPC methods: invoices, payments, channels, peers. MIT licensed.
Multi-system emulator frontend used in FiberQuest as the game host. We poll RetroArch's UDP network command port (READ_CORE_MEMORY) at 20Hz to read live game RAM — player scores, lives, round state — and trigger Fiber payments autonomously.
The on-chain Digital Object (DOB) standard on CKB. Our DOB minter and Founding Member NFTs are built on Spore. Permanent, owner-controlled, no platform risk.
The modern CKB TypeScript SDK. Our DOB minter, membership system, and all browser-side CKB interactions are built on CCC. Handles wallet connections, transaction building, and Spore minting cleanly.
On-chain file storage for CKB. We use CKBFS to publish the Founding Member DOB image permanently on-chain and built a browser SDK adapter on top of it.
🔐 Cryptape
Security research & advanced protocols
The team behind CKB's cryptographic foundations.
The audited SPHINCS+ lock script deployed on CKB mainnet. Our planned SPHINCS+ hardware wallet targets this as its on-chain counterpart — we only need to build the embedded signing side.
Lets any Nostr identity own CKB cells — same secp256k1 curve, no separate wallet needed. On our radar for bridging BitChat mesh identity with on-chain CKB assets.

Builders in the ecosystem
Independent developers whose work we build on or alongside.
The first quantum-resistant wallet on CKB mainnet, using SPHINCS+ signatures. Our planned hardware wallet is designed to be a signing companion to Quantum Purse — air-gapped, post-quantum, embedded. Respect to tea2x for building this.
Passkey-based wallet for CKB — Face ID / Touch ID, no seed phrases, no extension. Powers the entire Wyltek membership system and DOB minter. The reason joining takes one tap on iPhone.
The original ESP32 Bitcoin solo miner that NerdMiner CKB is forked from. BitMaker-hub's architecture — display, stratum client, WiFiManager — formed the starting point we adapted for Eaglesong/CKB.
Decentralised BLE mesh chat protocol and Android app. Our ckb-light-esp includes a BitChat mesh relay engine, and we're working on a LoRa bridge extending the mesh over kilometres.
🔌 Embedded Ecosystem
ESP32 libraries & tooling
The Arduino and PlatformIO community that makes embedded development accessible.
Multi-display graphics library for Arduino/ESP32. Used in wyltek-embedded-builder to drive displays across 32 board targets.
Captive portal WiFi config for ESP32/8266. Used in NerdMiner CKB — plug in, connect to the AP, enter your credentials, and you're mining.
The go-to JSON library for embedded C++. Used across Wyltek projects for parsing API responses, config files, and stratum protocol messages.
Native USB HID stack for ESP32-S3. Powers WyRelay and WyTerminal — lets the ESP32-S3 appear as a USB keyboard to any host machine for remote command relay.
Tiny JPEG decoder for Arduino/ESP32. Used in WyTerminal to decode scaled JPEG screenshots received from the daemon and render them inline on the AMOLED display.
Compact QR code generation for Arduino. Used in wyltek-embedded-builder and the CKB POS system to display payment QR codes on embedded screens.
Resistive touchscreen driver for XPT2046 controllers — the chip on most ESP32 Cheap Yellow Display (CYD) boards. Used in wyltek-embedded-builder touch support.
TrueType font rendering on ESP32 via FreeType. Used in NerdMiner CKB for clean display typography instead of bitmap fonts.
NTP time sync for Arduino. Used in NerdMiner CKB for accurate timestamps on the mining display.
🏗️ Infrastructure & Web
Platforms & services
The tools and platforms the Wyltek web stack is built on.
Open source Firebase alternative. Powers the Wyltek membership system — profiles, lounge messages, reactions, mint queue. Postgres + Realtime + Storage, all open source.
Fast build tooling for the DOB minter web app. Zero-config dev server, instant HMR, clean production builds.
UI library powering the DOB minter. Component model made the wallet connection flow, cluster panel, and batch mint progress trackable cleanly.
Linux distribution for ARM SBCs. Our SBC image builds, OPi3B nodes, and the board running this site all run on Armbian. The userpatches system makes per-board CKB customisation possible.
This site is hosted on GitHub Pages. Free, fast, and the source is always one click away from every page.
AI models used during research and development — architecture decisions, protocol research, code review, and the research crawl system that powers the member research library.
This list grows. As we build more and integrate more open source work, this page gets updated. Last updated: March 2026. If you see something missing, let us know.
