Lumino Ceremony: Building the Privacy Protection Infrastructure
PlatON, a privacy AI computing network which is committed to building a decentralized collaborative artificial intelligence network and global brain, is promoting the democratization of artificial intelligence and establishing a secure general artificial intelligence. The bottom layer of its decentralized privacy protection infrastructure is based on Zero-Knowledge Proof.
What is Zero-Knowledge Proof
Zero-Knowledge Proof is a cryptographic technology to realize privacy protection authentication. The prover needs to make the verifier believe that he knows or owns a message, without disclosing any information about message which is to be confirmed. For example, if the prover wants to prove that he knows the safe box password without revealing it, he can just show some items existing in the safe box that everyone knows.
This process is Zero-Knowledge Proof. The proof needs an initial credible setting (some items existing in the safe box that everyone knows), namely a series of public parameters to help the prover build Zero-Knowledge Proof.
Deficiency of Zero-Knowledge Proof
As a cryptographic technology with both privacy protection and authentication capability, zero-knowledge proof is widely used to realize transaction verification under hidden business details in blockchain. The zero-knowledge proof system applied in the blockchain field is mainly a cryptographic algorithm called “zk-SNARKs”. At present, the existing classic zk-SNARKs algorithms include GGPR13, PGHR13, Groth16, GM17, and new generation algorithms such as Sonic, Marlin, Plonk, which support updating public parameters. The current version of ZCash, a well-known private cryptographic currency, uses Groth16 algorithm.
From the above “safe box”, we can see that the premise for the correct operation of this kind of algorithm is existing a series of random trusted parameters. However, randomized parameters will not come out of thin air and there is no trusted third party in the blockchain. Parameters created by centralized third parties can be reconstructed in theory, and it is possible to forge proofs, which may destroy the underlying security in PlatON. Imagine that if a specific institution informed the verifier of the storage of the items in the safe box, the institution and the prover could collude and use this secret information to falsify the illusion that the prover knew the safe box password.
Therefore, it is an undoubtedly excellent idea to organize multiple participants to create these randomized parameters through Secure Multi-party Computation. In this process, single party can not reconstruct the parameters any more. Only when this activity is completed safely will the subsequent decentralized application be safe. In fact, ZCash has successfully created system parameters for Groth16 algorithm in November 2017 through its ceremony, Power of Tau.
Lumino, creating secure parameters
In order to prevent the parameters generated by the centralized mode from affecting the underlying security, PlatON started the Secure Multi-party Computation ceremony Lumino on June 21, 2021, last for 60 days. This ceremony is expected to create necessary secure parameters for the Zero-Knowledge Proof protocol.
During the Lumino ceremony, multiple participants carry out several rounds of calculation in the form of a relay, that is to say, the current participant need to use the calculation results of the previous participant as the input of this round, and the calculation output become the calculation input of the next participant as well. After a certain number of rounds, the output of the last participant is the final result of the whole ceremony, namely the system initialization parameters that Plonk thatalgorithm of PlatON will choose. Obviously, the more participants take part in the ceremony, the safer the parameters will be.
As a practical and efficient Zero-Knowledge Proof algorithm, Plonk is commonly used in PlatON projects and communities, which is characterized by a one-time initialization process, that is, running once can be used to deploy multiple applications. Providing necessary initialization parameters for Plonk algorithm through Lumino ceremony means that no one can master the secret information behind the parameters, which can be used to cheat players in the whole system. Lumino ceremony will lay a solid foundation for the security of PlatON.

Brandon Gilkey Advocates for Youth Mentorship and Financial Education Amid Growing Economic Uncertainty
-
Real Estate Leader Highlights the Power of Guidance, Adaptability, and Long-Term Thinking for the Next Generation
Arizona, US, 11th February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, As economic uncertainty, rising housing costs, and limited financial education continue to challenge young Americans, real estate entrepreneur Brandon Gilkey is using his voice to advocate for increased youth mentorship and practical financial literacy—especially for students navigating life beyond athletics and traditional career paths.

Gilkey, who transitioned from a sports-driven upbringing in Edmond, Oklahoma, to building over $8 million in real estate holdings, credits mentorship, adaptability, and long-term thinking as the foundation of his success.
“Growing up in sports taught me teamwork, dedication, and resilience,” Gilkey says. “But stepping away from the path I thought I was supposed to take forced me to grow in ways I never expected.”
A Timely Issue Backed by Data
According to recent national studies:
-
Over 60% of young adults report feeling unprepared to make major financial decisions
-
Nearly 70% of high school students receive no formal financial education
-
First-time homebuyer ages have climbed to record highs, largely due to lack of financial preparedness and rising costs
Gilkey believes mentorship can bridge that gap.
“Working with students showed me how powerful guidance can be,” he explains. “When young people have someone helping them see beyond what’s in front of them, it changes their trajectory.”
From Mentorship to Market Success
After graduating from Abilene Christian University in 2003, Gilkey spent years mentoring students through church-based programs before relocating to Phoenix with his wife. That move marked a turning point—one that led him into real estate, where he found a way to combine strategy, service, and long-term impact.
“Real estate isn’t just about transactions,” Gilkey says. “It’s about helping people build stability, confidence, and a future they can believe in.”
His success underscores a broader message: skills learned through discipline, mentorship, and service are transferable—and powerful—across industries.
Empowering the Next Generation Starts at Home
Rather than calling for policy changes alone, Gilkey emphasizes individual action—parents, mentors, coaches, and professionals taking responsibility to guide young people where systems fall short.
“You don’t need to be an expert to make a difference,” he says. “You just need to be willing to share your experience, listen, and help someone think long-term.”
What Individuals Can Do Now
-
Start conversations with young people about money, careers, and long-term planning
-
Encourage exploration beyond one-dimensional career paths
-
Support mentorship programs in schools, churches, and local communities
-
Share real-world lessons—not just success stories, but challenges too
“When we invest time in people early,” Gilkey adds, “we don’t just change individual lives—we strengthen entire communities.”
As economic pressures continue to rise, voices like Brandon Gilkey’s highlight a powerful truth: mentorship and education remain some of the most effective tools for long-term success—both financially and personally.

Vickie DeHart Shares a Practical Message for Busy, Overloaded Days
-
Vickie DeHart of Las Vegas writes to everyday people navigating pressure, overload, and unclear days.
Las Vegas, NV, 11th February 2026, ZEXPRWIRE, This letter is for people who feel busy but not always effective.
For those juggling work, responsibilities, and expectations while trying to keep things moving forward.

I’ve spent decades in construction and real estate, industries where unclear days turn into costly problems. Over time, I’ve learned that most stress doesn’t come from the size of the work. It comes from a lack of clarity.
“As I’ve learned, structure gives you freedom,” I often say. When days start without direction, everything feels heavier.
Construction taught me that quickly. “There’s no hiding in this industry,” I’ve said before. “Either it works or it doesn’t.” The same is true in daily life. When communication is unclear or tasks stay unfinished, pressure builds fast.
Research backs this up.
-
Nearly 70% of workplace errors are tied to miscommunication or unclear expectations.
-
Writing down daily priorities increases task completion by over 30%.
-
Short daily walks can improve creative problem-solving by up to 60%.
-
People who reflect daily report 20–25% lower stress levels.
But this isn’t about productivity hacks. It’s about living with less friction.
“One of the biggest lessons I learned early on,” I’ve shared, “is that most problems aren’t caused by lack of effort. They’re caused by unclear expectations.” When expectations stay vague, even capable people feel stuck.
I also believe something many people don’t agree with. “Mistakes are underrated,” I’ve said. They’re not the issue. Ignoring them is. Progress comes from noticing what isn’t working and adjusting calmly.
Another lesson that still guides me: “You learn more by walking a site than reading ten reports.” Being present—physically and mentally—changes how problems appear. Distance often makes things feel bigger than they are.
And finally, this one matters most: “I don’t believe in pressure-led leadership. I believe in clarity.” Pressure creates urgency. Clarity creates momentum.
What You Can Do This Week
You don’t need new tools or a major life change. Try one or two of these.
-
Write down three priorities each morning. No more.
-
Take a 10-minute walk without your phone. Think through one open issue.
-
Finish one small task you’ve been carrying for days.
-
Clarify expectations in one conversation instead of assuming.
-
Remove one unnecessary step from a routine process.
-
Have one distraction-free conversation.
-
End one day by noting what actually worked.
-
Ask, “What’s unclear here?” before reacting.
-
Step outside when you feel overwhelmed.
-
Choose progress over perfection—just for today.
None of these are dramatic. That’s the point.
“Big ideas only work if they’re grounded in execution,” I’ve said before. And execution begins with small, repeatable habits that make life easier, not louder.
A Simple Invitation
Choose one action from this list.
Commit to it for 7 days.
Notice what feels lighter.
If this letter helped you, share it with someone who feels overwhelmed, busy, or stuck. Sometimes clarity spreads simply by passing it on.
