Building a machine network based on blockchain to create a new IoT era

Published

on

Mankind is entering the era of “connection of all things”

Recently, the Ministry of industry and information technology released the key industries and application scenarios of “5G + industrial Internet”, marking that China’s 5G application has shifted from exploration to promotion. 5G has three characteristics: high speed, low delay and wide connection, which will promote the consumer Internet forward to the industrial Internet, and finally build an intelligent world of “everything connected”.

The essence of industrial Internet is to use information technology to closely connect the equipment, production lines, factories, suppliers, products and customers in the industrial manufacturing industry, which is across the equipment, system, and region, so as to improve efficiency and promote the intellectualization of the whole manufacturing service system. The 5G application scenarios released recently, such as collaborative operation and flexible manufacturing, indicating the importance of industrial Internet to achieve broader and deeper social cooperation. It is through this large-scale cooperation that human civilization makes progress continuously.

Large-scale social cooperation could be divided into two patterns: the first is centralized, with hierarchical “command-feedback” chain and mutual principal-agent relationship as the core characteristics. The typical representatives are government, bureaucratic organizations and military units; the second type is decentralized, represented by market mechanism. There is no central planning or unified coordination. The participants of the mechanism, based on cost-benefit calculation, promote the overall interests through automatic division of labor and exchange. On the social level, the efficiency of decentralized market mechanism is higher than that of centralized command mechanism. In the future mass machine equipment connection (mMTC) network, a decentralized and value exchange based large-scale collaboration among machines can be realized by introducing market mechanism. Therefore, the industrial Internet in the digital era is not only the Internet of factory manufacturing, but also a distributed network and governance structure. All enterprises can safely join this network to realize manufacturing services, integrated innovation and value sharing.

Sharing mechanism in large scale machine cooperation

Although large-scale collaboration between machines has great value potentially, it still faces problems such as privacy protection, trust between agents and higher demand of computing power of large-scale collaboration.

Therefore, the solution design of the industry is to adopt the pattern of “machine network + blockchain”. The role of Cloud in traditional industrial Internet, such as using the smart contract based on the blockchain to realize the value measurement, distribution and settlement of large-scale cooperation. Finally, it would make the large-scale cooperation of cross-border and public affairs more credible and efficient.

1) Effective data confirmation

The reason why blockchain has become the key to the future industrial Internet is that it integrates technologies such as cryptography, peer-to-peer network, consensus mechanism, and forms a new way of data recording, transmission, storage and presentation, so as to construct a decentralized pattern, which can effectively confirm the data rights. In the industrial Internet, the integration of blockchain technology can solve the problem of mutual trust and cooperation among multiple players, as well as the problem of industrial enterprises’ control over their own data.

2) Reducing the transaction cost of multilateral platform

With the development of global market and the subdivision of supply chain, the participation cost of complex business activities is no longer “bilateral”, but “multilateral”, and the establishment of trust relationship is more and more expensive. Blockchain technology can build a peer-to-peer and unified platform for business activities. At the same time, it can significantly reduce one of the trust costs in transaction costs to be commercially feasible. Participants in business activities will move from traditional “bilateral platform” to “multilateral platform”. While scale effect is formed, the trust cost will not increase too much.Finally, it will be superimposed into an ecological effect, forming a viable business model.

3) To solve the problem of Isolated Data Island by privacy computing

Although blockchain can play a significant role in solving trust, cooperation and other problems in industrial Internet, it still has some defects in data value mining and privacy protection. Therefore, blockchain also needs to combine with privacy computing. Privacy computing can not only realize data sharing under privacy protection, ensure the authorization of privavy data, but also prevent malicious eavesdroppers or others from accessing the original data or data calculation results. In the industrial Internet, the core data is still kept in the enterprise. Under the premise of meeting the needs of data privacy security, privacy computing enables enterprises to use massive industrial data more efficiently and accurately, solving the problem of Isolated Data Island. Furtherly, it enhance the value of data in the process of sovereign ownership and rights sharing, and realize the two-way empowerment of various enterprises.

PlatON helps intelligent interconnection of Machine Networks

PlatON is a privacy computing network based on cryptography algorithm. As a global leader in blockchain industry, it can effectively solve the problems about Big Data managemen in the industrial Internet by its existing technical advantages, and provide a safer infrastructure based on privacy protection and edge computing capability. Firstly, PlatOn’s powerful encryption algorithm technology can provide trusted device authentication, multi-channel data transmission and data storage services for industrial Internet, and enhance the security of device system; Secondly, PlatOn’s new computing architecture can make full use of the computing resources of adjacent nodes, provide strong computing support for the industrial Internet, and comprehensively improve the timeliness of services. Finally, PlatOn’s privacy protection and multi-party secure computing (MPC) technology can support collaborative analysis of massive data and integration of diverse scenarios

On April 30, 2021, the PlatON privacy AI computing network obtained the community license with 80.6% support rate, and the current pre-deployment network has officially become the main network. PlatON will gradually establish a multi-agent collaboration and computing network for the future, and promote industrial civilization and human society from “interconnection of all things” to “intelligent connection of all things”.

Traction Marketing Launches Specialised Answer Engine Optimisation Framework for Architecture Firms

Published

on

Traditional, image-led architecture websites are increasingly invisible to AI “answer engines” like ChatGPT and Gemini. Without a machine-readable “digital blueprint,” firms risk being ghosted by AI or having their expertise misattributed to competitors. Traction Marketing’s new AEO framework resolves this by translating design excellence into structured data, ensuring that when developers ask high-intent questions about feasibility and planning, your firm is the cited authority, not just a hidden link

Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand, 12th Aug 2026 — In architecture, a beautiful facade means nothing without structural integrity. The same is now true for your digital presence. For years, firms have relied on minimalist, image-heavy websites to speak for their expertise. But in the era of AI-powered “answer engines,” that silence is becoming a liability. When ChatGPT or Google Gemini can’t “read” your design philosophy, they don’t just skip you, they often misattribute your work or invent a narrative for you.

As AI-powered “answer engines” replace traditional search, Traction Marketing has launched a new AEO framework designed to ensure your firm’s expertise isn’t just seen, it’s cited. We’re helping architects move beyond the portfolio page and into the definitive answers provided by the next generation of search.

The Hidden Cost of the “Minimalist” Website

The architectural industry is facing a unique crisis of discoverability. As potential clients move away from traditional keyword searches and toward conversational AI, the “first page of Google” is being replaced by a single, definitive recommendation. If your project data isn’t structured for these machines, your firm effectively ceases to exist in the AI’s worldview.

“AEO is no longer just a marketing choice; it is a form of brand protection,” says the team at Traction Marketing. “Without a machine-readable digital blueprint, firms risk having their sustainability credentials, material innovations, and award wins ignored or, worse – AI hallucinations”.

The Structural Breakdown: How AEO Works for Architects

  • From Imagery to Intelligence: Implementing “Answer-First” hierarchies that translate visual achievements into clear, declarative statements about methodology, materials, and project outcomes.
  • Question-Led Architecture: Restructuring page headings to answer the high-intent, commercial questions developers actually ask AI, such as:
    • “What are the common council planning hurdles for multi-residential builds in Christchurch?”
    • “How can I maximise floor area ratio on a constrained heritage-protected site?”
    • “What is the typical lead time from concept design to building consent for industrial projects in Canterbury?”
  • The Semantic Foundation: Embedding advanced Schema Markup into the site’s code, acting as a technical translator that tells AI exactly which projects are yours, your specific role in the build, and which awards you have won.
  • Precision Content Chunking: Breaking complex design philosophies into concise, single-topic segments to ensure AI citations remain accurate and contextually relevant, preventing “hallucinations” or misattribution.

Beyond Search: The Recommendation Era

The industry is moving from a “search” economy to a “recommendation” economy. In this new landscape, being found is no longer about matching a keyword; it is about being the most trusted data source for a specific answer. For architecture firms, this shift is the difference between being a “suggested link” buried on page four and being the “cited authority” in a direct ChatGPT or Gemini response.

By adopting these structural changes, firms can protect their intellectual property from being misattributed and ensure that their specific innovations in urban planning and design are the ones being fed into the global AI knowledge base.

Ensuring Design Dominance

This evolution in digital strategy allows firms to maintain total control over their project narratives. It ensures that when the next generation of property developers and city planners consult AI for expert partners, the “structural integrity” of a firm’s digital data matches the excellence of their physical builds.

Ancient Texts, Modern Questions: New Book Explores the Recurring Mystery of Polydactyly Throughout History

Published

on

Footprints of the Gods: Extra Digits—The Mark of the Giants by Jim Vieira and Greg Maestro explores the recurring appearance of six-fingered and six-toed figures across ancient civilizations, archaeological artifacts, religious texts, and historical traditions.Drawing on material from Mesopotamia, the ancient Near East, Jordan, Iran, North America, and other regions, the book examines whether these unusual depictions reflect symbolic art, real cases of polydactyly, or cultural traditions connected to rulers, heroes, and divine figures. The authors also discuss references from texts such as the Epic of Gilgamesh, the Book of Enoch, and biblical passages.Rather than promoting a single theory, Vieira and Maestro present a broad collection of archaeological and historical evidence and invite readers to consider why similar motifs appear across distant cultures. The book aims to encourage further discussion and research into the relationship between archaeology, mythology, physical characteristics, and ancient belief systems.Footprints of the Gods: Extra Digits—The Mark of the Giants is now available on Amazon.

New York, New York, United States, 12th Aug 2026 – For centuries, archaeologists, historians, and readers of ancient literature have examined artifacts, inscriptions, and traditions that raise questions about humanity’s distant past. A newly released book, Footprints of the Gods: Extra Digits—The Mark of the Giants, by Jim Vieira and Greg Maestro, brings together archaeological discoveries, historical records, and ancient narratives to examine one recurring detail found across multiple civilizations: the depiction of individuals with six fingers and six toes.

Rather than presenting a single conclusion, the book surveys evidence drawn from Mesopotamia, the ancient Near East and many more spanning nine regions where unusual anatomical features appear in sculptures, seals, religious imagery, and historical texts. The authors explore whether these recurring depictions were symbolic artistic choices, representations of real individuals with polydactyly, or part of broader traditions surrounding rulers, heroes, and divine beings.

Among the artifacts discussed are Mesopotamian cylinder seals, ancient amulets, stone sculptures, and archaeological finds that depict figures with extra digits. The research also examines references from ancient literature, including the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Book of Enoch, alongside religious passages that mention individuals described as having six fingers and six toes.

The publication highlights how similar motifs appear across geographically distant cultures, prompting questions about whether these parallels developed independently or reflect shared traditions that spread over time. Rather than focusing on sensational claims, the authors encourage readers to examine the available evidence and consider how archaeology, mythology, and written history sometimes intersect in unexpected ways.

In addition to discussing well-known archaeological sites in Mesopotamia, the book references discoveries from Jordan, Iran, and North America, where images and carvings featuring extra digits have also been documented. By comparing these findings, the authors seek to identify recurring patterns that have received relatively little attention in mainstream discussions of ancient history. 

The work also explores how ancient societies associated physical characteristics with status, ancestry, and religious significance. Throughout history, unusual anatomical traits have often been interpreted differently depending on cultural context, sometimes serving as symbols of authority, divinity, or distinction.

According to the authors, the purpose of the book is not to rewrite history but to encourage closer examination of archaeological evidence and historical sources that continue to generate scholarly and public interest. By assembling material from multiple civilizations into a single volume, the book invites readers to consider whether recurring details preserved in artifacts and texts may warrant further research.

As public interest in ancient civilizations, archaeology, and historical mysteries continues to grow, Footprints of the Gods: Extra Digits—The Mark of the Giants contributes to the ongoing conversation by presenting a broad collection of historical references, archaeological discoveries, and visual evidence related to one of antiquity’s more unusual recurring themes.

The book is now available on Amazon.

Silicon Valley Technology Consultant Tamar Toledano Says Businesses Are Replacing Hype With Measurable Results

Published

on

San Francisco, California, Aug 12, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — After years of companies racing to adopt the latest technology trends, many organizations are taking a more disciplined approach to innovation. From blockchain and NFTs to the metaverse, businesses are increasingly evaluating emerging technologies based on measurable business outcomes rather than market excitement. According to technology consultant Tamar Toledano, this shift reflects a growing recognition that successful digital transformation depends on solving real operational challenges, not following industry hype.

Many enterprises are now introducing formal review processes for experimental technology initiatives. These include predefined performance milestones and “kill switches” that end projects if they fail to demonstrate meaningful adoption or measurable business impact within a specified timeframe. The approach allows organizations to redirect resources toward initiatives that generate lasting value rather than prolonging costly experiments. “The technology itself is rarely the problem,” said Tamar Toledano. “Problems arise when organizations adopt technologies simply because they are popular. Every investment should begin with a clearly defined business objective and a practical path to measurable results.”

The technology industry has experienced multiple waves of enthusiasm around emerging innovations. Blockchain promised to transform industries beyond finance. The metaverse generated ambitious predictions of work and commerce. NFTs attracted billions in investment from companies eager to establish digital ownership strategies. While each technology demonstrated legitimate use cases, many organizations launched projects without identifying problems that genuinely required those solutions.

As enthusiasm outpaced practical implementation, businesses encountered rising development costs, integration challenges, uncertain customer demand, and limited returns on investment. Many pilot programs never advanced beyond proof-of-concept stages, while others were quietly discontinued after failing to produce meaningful business benefits.

According to Toledano, these experiences have encouraged organizations to adopt more disciplined technology evaluation frameworks. Rather than asking whether a technology is innovative, decision-makers are increasingly asking whether it improves efficiency, reduces costs, increases revenue, or enhances customer experiences. “The conversation has shifted from asking, ‘Should we use blockchain?’ to asking, ‘What business problem are we solving?’” Toledano explained. “That change in thinking leads to much stronger investment decisions.”

The same mindset is increasingly shaping enterprise AI adoption. While artificial intelligence continues to deliver measurable value across industries, organizations are becoming more selective about where and how they deploy it. Rather than implementing AI across every department, companies are identifying high-impact use cases where automation, prediction, or data analysis can generate measurable operational improvements.

Toledano believes this represents a healthier stage in the technology adoption cycle.

“Successful organizations recognize that not every emerging technology deserves immediate deployment,” she said. “Sometimes the most valuable decision is determining that a problem can be solved more simply with existing tools.”

Throughout her consulting career, Toledano has helped organizations evaluate emerging technologies through the lens of long-term business performance. Her approach emphasizes aligning technical investments with strategic objectives, ensuring that innovation supports operational goals rather than becoming an objective in itself.

She notes that many companies now require technology initiatives to meet measurable benchmarks before receiving additional funding. These benchmarks may include user adoption rates, operational savings, revenue generation, customer satisfaction improvements, or implementation efficiency. Projects that consistently fail to meet those objectives are discontinued, allowing organizations to focus on higher-performing initiatives.

This disciplined approach also reduces the risks associated with rapidly changing technology markets. Rather than making large, irreversible investments based on future expectations, businesses can validate assumptions through smaller pilot programs before committing additional resources. “The most successful digital transformations are built on continuous learning,” Toledano said. “Organizations should be willing to test new ideas, but they should be equally willing to end projects that do not create measurable value.”

Looking ahead, Toledano expects enterprise technology strategies to become increasingly evidence-driven. Executive teams are placing greater emphasis on measurable outcomes, cross-functional collaboration, and disciplined investment governance. As a result, technology decisions are becoming more closely aligned with overall business strategy rather than industry trends.

She believes this evolution will ultimately strengthen innovation by encouraging companies to pursue technologies with proven practical benefits instead of chasing every emerging trend. “When organizations prioritize outcomes over excitement, innovation becomes far more sustainable,” Toledano added. “The goal is not to adopt the newest technology. The goal is to build better businesses.”
