Platon Aims To Become The Public Infrastructute Of Privacy Computing To Open Up Business Prospects For The Crypto Space

In the Information Age, Data Becomes a New Factor of Productivity

In economics, factors of production, also known as production inputs, are essential resources for the production of goods and services. In his epochal work “Principles of Economics”, famous British economist Marshall put forward the theory of four factors of production — land, labor, capital and entrepreneurial talent. National income (NI) is the reward of four factors, and that is, national income (NI) = labor wage (w) + land rent (r) + capital interest (i) + operating profit (π). This “four-in-one formula” sums up the core of western economic production theory and distribution theory, which has been widely accepted for more than a century.

However, factors of production are a historical category that evolves with the development of economy and society. The birth and development of the Internet has changed the mode of production, life and consumption, and it promoted many important and profound changes, and played an increasingly important role in economic development, social life and national governance. The full exploitation and effective utilization of all kinds of data has raised production efficiency to an unprecedented level. Data has become an indispensable factor in economic activities and a new generation of production factors after land, energy, population and food.

Privacy Brings Data Dilemma and MPC Realizes Data Collaborative Computing

Nowadays, people have already extended their social activities to the network space. Every day, people contribute data continuously to the network space. A large amount of data is collected, calculated, analyzed, excavated and this goes beyond the original data level of information value.

However, because of the plain text nature of the data, the owner loses ownership of the data once the data is granted to others for use. Therefore, to ensure the privacy protection of data, a huge amount of data managed by enterprises cannot be exchanged and co-calculated with the data held by other enterprises, which is why a large number of data cannot generate value.

The emergence of privacy computing ends this dilemma. Yao Qizhi, a member of the Chinese National Academy of Sciences, proposed secure multi-party computing (MPC) in 1982. In a nutshell, participants have to enter information to calculate an agreed function. In addition to the accuracy of the calculations, they must also protect the privacy of each participant’s input data. Specifically, there are now n participants, each of whom, xi, is aware of the xi they entered, who together calculate a pre-agreed function f (x1 ,…, xn) = y. In this way, all participants will get the final y value, but they will not be able to know the specific data entered by the other participants. Thus, with local data not aggregated and privacy not divulged, each party can still achieve a common desired result by performing the operations of the given logic.

Privacy computing opens up huge business prospects for the digital world (Crypto Space)

Bitcoin’s pioneering combination of virtual currencies and peer-to-peer payment systems open the door to decentralization. With the introduction of intelligent contract function, Ethernet has greatly improved the scalability of blockchain, and all kinds of applications can be deployed on blockchain. Because of these characteristics, early public blockchain networks such as Bitcoin and Ethernet have been developed, attracting a large number of blockchain and encryption enthusiasts in the world, and many traditional institutions have been entering the area of blockchain, exploring various possibilities of decentralization.

The combination of privacy computing and blockchain is expected to put data ownership back in the hands of data producers, meaning that vast amounts of data can be counted without affecting privacy and ownership, so that the owners can profit and data can burst out with greater value. Therefore, the blockchain project based on privacy calculation is naturally suitable for the commercial practice in the fields of financial, medical, scientific research, government affairs, and logistics and so on.

“Operator” PlatON network for blockchain data

PlatON, the representative project of the combination of privacy computing and blockchain currently, is based on the basic attribute of blockchain and is supported by privacy computing network, and provides the next generation Internet infrastructure protocol with the core characteristics of “computing interoperation”. PlatON’s vision is to become the public infrastructure for privacy computing of the next generation, publishing privacy computing algorithms through contracts, and implementing MPC protocols with data providers and computing nodes for privacy protection requirements, so as to realize cooperative computing of data. PlatON, designed to price data flows, is all about computing and data, which is the most fundamental part of future human production. PlatON can achieve large-scale application landing and commercial scenario implementation:

For example:

I. Build a wider credit collection network. The public chain that provides private computing can provide user with customizable computing logic template and multi-party access mode, and in the case that the access party’s data does not need to be collected and shared, only the credit inquiry results are output to the demander, and the original data can be encrypted and stored in the blockchain system to meet all kinds of audit needs.

II. Supply chain financial infrastructure. The public chain of private computing is based on blockchain technology and cryptography algorithm, which can provide a platform solution for supply chain finance to digitally identify, process and transfer assets. Construct a new financial financing model of supply chain in which the information of the upstream and downstream enterprises can be shared symmetrically, the credit value of the core enterprises can be transmitted, the business tickets can be split and the risk can be controlled, and provide convenient data traceability for the supervision and enhance the service efficiency of the industry as a whole.

To build the public infrastructure for the digital age, PlatON continuously optimizes technology, iterates the underlying infrastructure, and breaks through the “impossible triangle” in terms of performance. “Impossible triangle” means that it is difficult to achieve both a good “decentralization” and a good “security” of the system in a blockchain and a high “transaction processing performance” at the same time. The most well-known blockchain projects in the industry are Bitcoin, Ethernet, and EOS. At present, using native Token transfer performance test method and EOS under the same testing conditions, PlatON has achieved a comprehensive performance leader in the quasi-real environment, and will continue to focus on the data field and accelerate the construction of data market.

Mahadevi Ayahuasca Retreats Introduces Authentic Amazonian Ceremonies and Educational Resources in Colombia

Published

on

Colombia, 18th Mar 2026 — Mahadevi Ayahuasca Retreats, a plant medicine retreat center located in the Colombian Amazon near Mocoa, is offering immersive and responsibly guided ayahuasca experiences designed for individuals seeking personal insight, healing, and spiritual exploration. Founded by Yasha Shah, the retreat combines traditional Yagé ceremonies with a rare preparation known as Crudo ayahuasca, creating a carefully structured environment for participants interested in experiencing the medicine with guidance, safety, and respect for Indigenous traditions.

Situated in the lush Putumayo region, Mahadevi Ayahuasca Retreats provides a tranquil natural setting where guests can participate in small group ceremonies while receiving comprehensive preparation and integration support. The retreat aims to create a supportive atmosphere where participants can explore the transformative potential of ayahuasca while being guided through each step of the process.

Ayahuasca, a traditional plant medicine used for centuries by Indigenous communities in the Amazon basin, has gained increasing international attention for its potential role in self-discovery and personal growth. However, with growing global interest has come a wide range of retreat options, making it important for participants to choose programs that emphasize safety, cultural respect, and informed preparation.

Mahadevi Ayahuasca Retreats was founded with the goal of providing a more thoughtful and responsible retreat experience. According to founder Yasha Shah, the focus is not only on the ceremonies themselves but also on proper preparation and integration afterward.

“Our approach is about helping people engage with the experience in a grounded and respectful way,” Shah said. “Preparation, guidance, and integration are just as important as the ceremonies themselves. We want participants to feel supported throughout the entire process.”

One distinctive aspect of the retreat is its use of Crudo ayahuasca, a raw preparation of the medicine that many participants report as being gentler on the body compared to traditional brewed preparations. This variation has attracted individuals who are new to ayahuasca and may be seeking a more accessible introduction to the practice.

Ceremonies are held in small groups to ensure personalized guidance and a calm, focused environment. Participants stay in a premium natural setting near Mocoa, surrounded by the biodiversity and serenity of the Colombian Amazon.

In addition to hosting retreats, Mahadevi Ayahuasca Retreats is also committed to education and responsible awareness about plant medicine. The organization has launched The Ayahuasca Framework, a comprehensive free educational video course designed to provide clear and balanced information about ayahuasca.

The program explores topics such as Indigenous traditions, neuroscience insights related to altered states of consciousness, safety considerations, and practical guidance for those considering attending an ayahuasca retreat. The course aims to help individuals make informed decisions about whether a retreat experience aligns with their personal goals.

“The Ayahuasca Framework was created to provide clarity in a space where information can sometimes be confusing or incomplete,” Shah explained. “We wanted to create a resource that blends Indigenous perspectives with modern scientific understanding while prioritizing safety and responsible engagement.”

Through its ceremonies and educational initiatives, Mahadevi Ayahuasca Retreats seeks to contribute to a more informed and respectful conversation around plant medicine experiences.

As interest in ayahuasca retreats continues to grow worldwide, the organization believes that responsible preparation, transparent education, and culturally respectful practices are essential elements of a meaningful retreat experience.

Pac-Man and Lazy Fatalism: Why Global Education’s Acquisition Frenzy Is Colliding With Economic Reality

Published

on

As student demand tightens and affordability pressures rise, education strategist warns that scale without discipline may amplify risk rather than reduce it

United States, 18th Mar 2026 — The global education sector is entering a more competitive and economically complex phase as student demand tightens, affordability pressures increase, and capital continues to pursue aggressive expansion across international education markets.

Education strategist Elaina Cohen warns that many institutional growth strategies still reflect assumptions from a previous era—one characterized by expanding student mobility, rising middle classes, and steadily growing enrollment pipelines.

“Institutional brand alone is no longer sufficient,” Cohen said. “The global education market is becoming far more competitive, and strategies built for expansion cycles will not necessarily sustain institutions in the decade ahead.”

Across many developed economies, the number of school-age students is beginning to level off or decline as birth rates fall below replacement levels in numerous countries. While demographic change is only one factor shaping the education market, it is tightening the overall pipeline of potential students.

“We are all fishing in the same pool,” Cohen said. “And the pool is not expanding the way many institutions assumed it would.”

Yet capital continues to move aggressively through the sector.

Cohen argues that the pattern increasingly resembles a Pac-Man dynamic, with institutions rapidly acquiring schools across markets under the assumption that scale itself guarantees stability.

“That mindset can become a form of lazy fatalism,” she said. “It assumes that if you acquire enough schools, demand will somehow materialize.”

“But unlike the arcade game, the board does not refill.”

Demand Is Redistributing Rather Than Expanding

While traditional education markets across Europe, East Asia, and parts of North America face slowing student growth, youth populations are expanding elsewhere.

Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia—particularly India—are poised to become some of the most significant education growth markets in the coming decades.

According to United Nations population projections, Sub-Saharan Africa’s population could nearly double by 2050, reaching more than 2 billion people. The region already has the youngest population globally, with a median age of roughly 19 years.

Countries including Nigeria, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, and Ghana are expected to experience substantial youth population growth.

India represents another powerful demographic center of gravity. With more than 250 million people between the ages of 15 and 24, the country holds the largest youth population in the world.

Economic growth is also reshaping these markets. Several African economies—including Rwanda, Kenya, Ghana, and Ethiopia—have recorded GDP growth rates frequently ranging between 5% and 8% annually, while India has maintained growth often exceeding 6% per year in recent years.

These trends are expanding demand for private schooling, international curricula, and global university pathways.

However, Cohen cautions that demographic expansion alone does not guarantee stable education markets.

“Demand ultimately follows purchasing power,” she said. “Population growth without income growth produces a very different market dynamic.”

When Capital Moves Faster Than Affordability

In many emerging markets, international school tuition can exceed several multiples of average household income. As a result, demand is often limited to expatriate communities or a narrow domestic elite.

This creates a structural tension between investor expectations and economic capacity.

“GDP growth headlines can be misleading,” Cohen said. “The real question is how quickly household income and middle-class purchasing power are expanding.”

Without that alignment, institutions expanding rapidly into emerging markets may encounter volatile enrollment cycles and persistent pricing pressure.

“Capital often moves faster than household income,” Cohen said. “When that happens, institutions end up competing for the same small segment of families.”

The Risk of Leap-Frog Investment

As global investors pursue growth opportunities in education, some institutions have adopted what Cohen describes as “leap-frog investment.”

Leap-frog investment occurs when premium schools are built or acquired in anticipation of future wealth expansion before the underlying middle class has fully developed.

“Infrastructure investment is essential,” Cohen said. “But leap-frogging the income curve can create fragile markets.”

If middle-class purchasing power expands more slowly than expected, institutions may face under-enrollment, heavy discounting, or persistent competition for a limited pool of affluent families.

The Limits of Tuition Inflation

For decades, many institutions relied on annual tuition increases as a predictable revenue strategy. In numerous private education markets, tuition has risen five to seven percent year over year for extended periods.

However, that model is becoming increasingly difficult to sustain.

Across many developed economies, household income growth has not kept pace with tuition inflation. In the United States, median household income has grown roughly three to four percent annually over the past decade, while private school and university tuition has often increased at significantly higher rates.

Rising costs for housing, healthcare, childcare, and transportation are also placing increasing pressure on family budgets.

“Tuition increases of seven percent year over year are simply not digestible for many families anymore,” Cohen said. “When pricing consistently outpaces income growth, institutions eventually reach a ceiling.”

Evidence of this pressure is already visible across the sector. Tuition discounting has expanded significantly, with average discount rates at U.S. private colleges now exceeding 50 percent for first-time students, according to enrollment industry reports.

“Increasing sticker price while expanding discounts creates the illusion of growth,” Cohen said. “But in many cases the net yield is deteriorating.”

Structural Misalignment in the Education Economy

What is emerging across global education markets is a growing structural misalignment. Tuition models in many premium institutions were built during decades of demographic expansion and rising middle-class purchasing power. Today, however, student populations are tightening in many developed economies while household income growth has slowed relative to tuition inflation. At the same time, capital continues to pursue expansion strategies through acquisitions and international market entry. The result is an unusual tension: institutions attempting to scale supply while the affordability foundation that once supported demand is becoming less predictable. In economic terms, the education sector is transitioning from a demand-expansion environment to a competition-for-share environment—a shift that requires far greater discipline in pricing, portfolio strategy, and revenue governance.

Capital Markets Are Becoming More Selective

These pressures are increasingly intersecting with capital market expectations.

Investors who once rewarded rapid expansion are now placing greater emphasis on predictable revenue, disciplined pricing strategies, and sustainable margins.

“In expansion periods, demographic growth masked many operational inefficiencies,” Cohen said.

“In tighter markets, those inefficiencies become visible very quickly.”

Revenue Governance Becomes the Strategic Advantage

Cohen has directed multinational revenue systems within education enterprises operating across more than twenty-five countries, overseeing revenue strategy, enrollment operations, marketing, and technology teams.

Her work has included revenue forecasting tied to demographic modeling, pricing architecture redesign, acquisition diligence, and institutional portfolio strategy.

Under tightening conditions she implemented structural changes that reduced tuition discount exposure, improved net tuition yield, rationalized underperforming programs, and converted previously non-performing initiatives into recurring revenue streams.

“These were not simply enrollment gains,” Cohen said. “They were structural protections for long-term financial stability.”

According to Cohen, institutions that succeed in the next phase of global education will treat revenue as a governed system aligned with demographic and economic realities.

“The era of passive enrollment is over,” she said.
“In competitive markets, precision replaces optimism.”

17-Year Industry Veteran Recognized Among Top Real Estate Agents in West Palm Beach

West Palm Beach, Florida, United States, 18th Mar 2026 – Loodmy Jacques, founder and team leader of The Jacques Team at Keller Williams Reserve, has been honored with the prestigious 2026 ThreeBestRated® Award, recognizing nearly two decades of excellence serving South Florida’s residential real estate market.

The ThreeBestRated® Award identifies top-rated businesses based on a rigorous 50-point inspection that evaluates reputation, history, complaints, ratings, satisfaction, trust, and excellence. Recipients must maintain consistently high standards across all evaluation criteria.

“We’re honored by being nominated as three best rated agent for South Florida,” Jacques said. “I think that gives everybody else to view that we are doing the right things and we’re going to continue doing the right thing and our customers can trust us more because they’ve seen that we are getting the recognition that we deserve.”

The Jacques Team has built its reputation on client-focused service, selling approximately 120 homes annually with over 300 five-star Google reviews. Jacques, originally from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, entered real estate at age 19 while attending college and has since become one of the top-producing agents in Palm Beach County.

“We provide excellent service to all our customers,” Jacques explained. “I always tell my team, we want to provide the Ritz Carlton level of service to every single client. I want every client to feel that they’re our only client, and we go above and beyond to make sure that happens.”

Jacques’s approach centers on education and guidance rather than transactional selling. He emphasizes helping clients make informed decisions that serve their long-term interests, particularly in Florida’s evolving market conditions.

“This business is a bit intimidating for any buyer or seller that does not do this every day,” Jacques noted. “My main role would be as a guide, as an educator, and making sure that I help buyers and sellers make the right decision because if they make the wrong decision, it could be a very costly one.”

The Jacques Team has developed comprehensive systems to support clients throughout transaction processes, including buyer education seminars, weekly check-ins, and 20-step marketing plans that extend well beyond traditional MLS listings.

“Long or gone the days of just putting it on the MLS and then the house sells itself,” Jacques said. “Now we have to go and we have a 20-step marketing plan to make sure that we are hitting every single point.”

Jacques characterizes Florida’s current market as more balanced than pandemic-era conditions, creating opportunities for both buyers and sellers working with experienced professionals who understand market dynamics.

“I would say that this market is more of an honest market now because buyers are more cautious. They’re not no longer chasing the market and sellers are watching days on the market like a hawk,” he explained.

The team serves buyers and sellers across all price points throughout Palm Beach County and surrounding areas, specializing in residential properties, luxury homes, and property management services for domestic and international clients.

The Jacques Team continues expanding its service offerings and team capacity to meet growing demand in West Palm Beach’s evolving market, where major corporate relocations and population growth continue driving real estate activity.
