Decentralized And Fully Open-Source Project PlatON Aims To Construct New Generation Financial Infrastructure
In recent years, with rapid development of 5G, Internet of Things, cloud computing and other technologies, the whole society has been evolving and upgrading on the road of informationization, digitization and intelligentization, and the data has become the key factor in the production process. As the value of data resources is gradually recognized, the demand for data circulation and sharing is increasing.
Although entities such as platform enterprises can set up algorithm analysis teams, use crawlers and terminal equipment and other technologies to obtain external data and process the same, provide relevant data to the outside world or provide data services, and overcome their own development problems in a centralized processing mode, from the perspective of the whole society, the data that can be acquired and processed by the centralized processing mode is still limited. The current digital infrastructure cannot meet the urgent needs for data transaction and sharing. Moreover, the inherent protection policy of trade secrets in the industry and the concerns of government departments on security interests restrict the maximum use of data value.
The emergence of blockchain and privacy computing technology provides guarantee and incentive for protecting data privacy and promoting data sharing transactions, and is gradually disrupting the traditional centralized governance model, creating the possibility for building a “decentralized” digital infrastructure.
“Decentralization” Reform And Development Trend In The Financial Field
The financial industry depends on big data, and its essence is in effective allocation of resources on the basis of mutual trust. As the traditional financial system is based on the centralized mode, it is highly dependent on intermediaries such as banks and arbitrators such as courts, which makes the market transaction cost high and the system efficiency low. It requires a lot of paperwork and it is difficult to manage vouchers. Introducing blockchain technology into the financial industry will break through the traditional centralized capital transaction mode and build a scattered and decentralized financial service system, which is called distributed finance (Defi).
Defi is not bound by central financial intermediaries such as banks, exchanges and brokerage companies, and uses blockchain intelligent contracts, which can specify in advance how to deal with all possible disputes and eliminate the necessity of third-party arbitrators, thereby reducing the provision and use of intermediary services and reducing transaction costs within the system. Compared with the traditional financial system, Defi transactions are smoother, and the financial services it provides will not be affected by a single point of failure.
Although Defi has many advantages in technology and business model, its development still faces many challenges. Security, as the first element of financial infrastructure, is also an unavoidable topic in Defi development. Within the financial system, the underlying network carries the transaction flow and payment settlement, while the vast amount of data flowing on nodes is related to customer privacy and trade secrets. In addition to that, whether it is institutional coordination and financial supervision in the short term or profit sharing in the future financial scenario, it is necessary to make a trade-off between data sharing and protection. All these cannot be separated from the escort of private computing technology.
Exploration Of PlatON In Constructing Financial Infrastructure
As a global leader in blockchain + privacy computing, PlatON will provide public infrastructure services under the open-source architecture for global AI and distributed application developers, data providers and various communities, institutions and individuals with computing needs through a new generation of private computing architecture consisting of verifiable computing, secure multi-party computing, zero-knowledge proof and homomorphic encryption.
At present, PlatON technology application scenarios have been extended to credit reporting, payment and clearing, key management and other fields. Facing the future all-digital era, one of PlatON’s core strategies is to explore possible paths for building a new generation of financial infrastructure by relying on privacy computing and its technical endowment, so as to promote large-scale transaction services and liquidity governance of data assets. To this end, PlatON officially launched the meta-network Alaya in October 2020. As the prototype network and “business sandbox” of PlatON’s new generation financial infrastructure, Alaya is committed to becoming the “pioneering demonstration area” of the next generation privacy computing and data asset computing infrastructure in the world.
PlatON is also a decentralized and fully open-source project, and anyone who is willing to support its development can contribute and get rewards. Recently, PlatON launched Hackathon activity on DoraHacks developer platform Hackerlink and set up a bonus pool of 170,000 US dollars, aiming at encouraging developers to emerge new inspiration and create new value, and further enriching the ecological application of PlatON and its meta-network Alaya around the private AI computing network. This activity was officially launched on July 21st and is expected to last until the end of September. The idea is tested on the Alaya development and test network or main network to continuously verify the completeness of the basic functions of the network. PlatON welcomes developers from all over the world to submit blockchain projects based on Alaya network to build a secure and credible digital infrastructure.

Beyond Exposure: How a Blind-Box Toy Seller Built Ownership, Community, and New Sellers on Fambase
Austin, Texas, United States, 28th Feb 2026 – In the fast-growing market for designer toys and blind-box collectibles, scarcity fuels demand. Hidden editions and limited drops — from brands like Labubu to Funko and others — can spark intense bidding overnight. But exposure alone does not create stability.
Algorithms fluctuate. Buyers jump between listings. Sellers compete within the same feed. For independent sellers, the real challenge is retention.
For blind-box seller Olivia Brooks, that reality became clear early on.
Before joining Fambase, Olivia hosted auctions across multiple platforms. Rare drops generated strong bids, but once they ended, buyers were quickly redirected to competing sellers. Momentum disappeared as fast as it arrived.
“I could generate excitement,” she says, “but I couldn’t build lasting relationships.”
That changed when she launched her own Marketplace group on Fambase.
Building a Collector-Centered Community
Instead of relying on algorithm-driven discovery, Olivia invited collectors into a private group focused entirely on her curated designer toy releases. Inside the group, members are not shown competing listings or redirected elsewhere. Announcements, livestreams, and transactions all happen in one centralized space.
Her auctions evolved from isolated sales into recurring community events. Collectors recognized one another. Discussions about condition, authenticity, and rarity took place openly.
Because conversations remain visible, common questions can be addressed once instead of through fragmented private messages, improving efficiency while strengthening transparency.
In the collectibles market, trust is as valuable as inventory.
Flexible Selling, Unified Engagement
For rare limited editions, Olivia relies on livestream auctions to let market demand determine price. The live format preserves competitive energy and transparency.
At the same time, Fambase enables fixed-price “Buy Now” listings within the same group, including smaller items and promotional bundles.
With her collector base concentrated in one place, she can notify members instantly before going live. For major releases, she schedules auction events in advance to ensure participation and avoid unpredictable turnout. This structure allows her to plan strategically rather than react to shifting platform traffic.
Protection for High-Value Collectibles
In the designer toy resale market, certain rare editions carry significant value. Disputes can be costly.
On some platforms, refunds may be processed automatically before sellers respond. Fambase follows an evidence-based review process, giving sellers the opportunity to present documentation before decisions are finalized.
“When you’re dealing with limited collectibles, fairness matters,” Olivia notes. “You need to know your business is protected.”
Turning Collectors into Entrepreneurs
As Olivia’s community matured, she noticed something beyond repeat purchases. Some collectors owned rare pieces of their own. Others were interested in hosting auctions but lacked structure.
Rather than losing those transactions to outside platforms, Olivia began mentoring her buyers.
She guided them in creating their own Fambase Marketplace groups, explained the differences between live auctions and fixed-price listings, and shared practical strategies for scheduling events and maintaining engagement. Instead of competing with her collectors, she empowered them.
By helping buyers become sellers within the same ecosystem, Olivia strengthened her community’s network effect. Collectors were no longer just participants in her auctions; they were launching businesses of their own.
“It’s not just about selling collectibles,” Olivia says. “It’s about building a space where everyone can grow.”
From Exposure to Ownership
Olivia’s experience reflects a broader evolution in the blind-box resale market. Sellers are moving away from short-term exposure spikes and toward ownership of their collector relationships.
In a market driven by scarcity and community trust, sustainable growth depends not only on rare inventory but on loyal collectors who stay.
About Fambase
Fambase is redefining community commerce by giving independent sellers full ownership of their customer relationships, pricing, and growth. Through private groups, livestream auctions, storefronts, and integrated communication tools, Fambase enables sellers to build sustainable businesses free from algorithmic volatility and internal traffic diversion.
Build your community. Own your growth.

As 2026 marks the beginning of China’s 15th Five-Year Plan (2026–2030) amid rising global volatility and fragmentation, CGTN published an analysis exploring how China will sustain steady economic growth, and what drives the resilience of the world’s second-largest economy.
Despite mounting external headwinds, China’s economy has demonstrated “remarkable resilience,” Marshall Mills, IMF’s senior resident representative to China, said late 2025. Noting that China contributes around 30 percent to global growth, he said the country’s steady outlook provides significant support to the world economy at a time of heightened uncertainty.
As 2026 opens the first year of China’s 15th Five-Year Plan (2026–2030), policymakers have laid out a clear roadmap. At the Central Economic Work Conference at the end of 2025, Chinese President Xi Jinping set the overall tone for this year’s economic policy as “pursuing progress while maintaining stability, and improving quality and efficiency.”
“There are many tasks on the economic agenda for 2026. We must grasp the key points and ensure coordinated progress,” Xi said.
In a world marked by volatility and fragmentation, China’s strategy centers on deepening structural reform, strengthening the business environment and accelerating technological innovation.
Stable policies underpin economic growth
China’s top-level policy framework provides a strong institutional foundation for innovation-driven development. This stability and predictability not only supports domestic growth but also reduces uncertainty for businesses and strengthens market confidence.
Over the years, China has elevated scientific and technological self-reliance to a strategic priority and set the goal of building a global science and technology powerhouse by 2035.
This vision has been backed by concrete policy measures. Authorities have advanced major national science projects and laboratories, positioned enterprises as the primary drivers of innovation, strengthened collaboration among industry, universities and research institutes, and improved support mechanisms through tax incentives, R&D subsidies, talent programs and science-and-technology finance initiatives.
At the same time, efforts to improve the business environment and invigorate the private sector have continued. Measures include expanded financing channels, tax and fee cuts, relaxed market access and stronger legal protection.
In January last year, the country’s top economic planner, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), released guidelines for building a unified national market to reduce transaction costs and improve factor mobility nationwide.
Meanwhile, China’s national lawmakers last April passed the country’s first fundamental law dedicated to promoting the private sector, seeking to ensure fair competition, improve financing access and strengthen legal protections for private enterprises. China has also fully removed foreign investment access restrictions in the manufacturing sector and further shortened its negative list for foreign investment.
For the 15th Five-Year Plan period, building a modern industrial system, fostering new quality productive forces, expanding domestic demand and advancing higher-level opening-up have been placed at the forefront.
Strong foundations, vast potential
Recent data underscores the effectiveness of this policy framework. In 2025, China’s GDP reached 140.19 trillion yuan (about $20.13 trillion), up 5 percent year on year, while foreign trade totaled 45.47 trillion yuan, marking nine consecutive years of growth.
Liu Shangxi, vice chairman of the China Macroeconomics Society, said the performance reflects Chinese economy’s internal resilience despite external disruptions.
Beyond headline figures, structural upgrading has accelerated. Traditional industries have stepped up digital and green transformation, while strategic emerging sectors – including next-generation information technology, high-end equipment manufacturing and new energy vehicles – have expanded rapidly.
Green transition has become a defining feature of this shift. In 2025, China’s new energy vehicle output exceeded 16 million units, maintaining its global lead for the 11th consecutive year. The country has also built the world’s largest and most comprehensive renewable energy industrial chain. Energy consumption per unit of GDP has fallen 11.6 percent compared with 2020, equivalent to cutting roughly 1.1 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions.
Meanwhile, technological innovation is increasingly embedded across industrial chains. Taking AI as an example, official data shows that by early 2026, China had more than 6,000 artificial intelligence companies, with the core AI industry surpassing 1.2 trillion yuan in scale – up nearly 30 percent year on year. Domestic open-source large models have recorded over 10 billion cumulative global downloads, signaling widespread industrial integration.
With its vast domestic market, complete industrial system, deep talent pool and strengths in digital and green sectors, China has built a comprehensive competitive edge, Liu noted. These fundamentals, he said, will not only sustain the world’s second-largest economy, but also inject greater predictability and stability into an increasingly uncertain global landscape.
