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.

Saiyan Electric Helps Gateway Cities Homeowners Claim SCE Charge Ready Rebates
Downey, California, United States, 31st Oct 2026 – Saiyan Electric, a licensed electrical contractor based in Downey, is helping homeowners in Whittier, South Gate, Long Beach, and the surrounding Gateway Cities navigate the SCE Charge Ready Home rebate process for electrical upgrades needed before installing a Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charger.
How Saiyan Electric Handles the Rebate Process
Saiyan Electric is enrolled in the SCE Charge Ready Home Contractor Network and helps eligible homeowners manage the electrical work and rebate documentation. After a homeowner applies and receives a Prequalification ID, Saiyan claims the project, obtains the required permits, installs the upgraded electrical panel and dedicated 240-volt circuit, and submits the required documentation to Southern California Edison (SCE). This includes the itemized invoice, project photos, finalized permits, and inspection records. Rebate payment follows SCE’s review and acceptance of the required documentation.
Saiyan Electric helps eligible SCE customers in single-family homes prepare for Level 2 charging. For homes with panels under 200 amps, qualifying panel-and-circuit work includes a dedicated 240-volt outlet within 25 feet of off-street parking, excluding the charger and its installation. Income-qualified households may receive up to $4,200; disadvantaged-community households may receive 50% of eligible costs, up to $2,100. Homes with 200-amp-or-larger panels or sufficient existing capacity may qualify for circuit-only rebates: up to $1,000 for income-qualified households, or 50% of eligible costs up to $500 for disadvantaged-community households. Eligibility, approval, charger-installation commitments and funding limits apply.
“A lot of people hear about this rebate and assume the paperwork is on them,” said Michael Velasquez, founder of Saiyan Electric. “We take care of the claim, so homeowners can focus on getting their panel and EV charger done right.”
Under Saiyan Electric’s approved warranty terms, main panel upgrades carry a 7-year warranty, while other qualifying work carries a 3-year warranty, subject to the applicable warranty terms.

DEPH Labs Partners with GB Top Team to Bring AI-Powered Precision Health to Elite MMA Athletes
London, UK, October 30th, 2026, FinanceWire
Partnership will explore how DNA, epigenetic testing and personalized biological insights can help fighters better understand their health, recovery and long-term performance
DEPH Labs, a precision health company using DNA, epigenetics and AI to turn complex biological data into personalized, actionable health insights, today announced a partnership with Great Britain Top Team (GBTT), one of the UK’s leading mixed martial arts (MMA) training organizations. The partnership is geared towards bringing advanced biological testing and personalized health insights into the world of elite combat sports.
https://youtube.com/shorts/D09WepT5q6M?feature=share
The partnership extends DEPH Labs’ proprietary precision health technology to GBTT’s team of professional MMA fighters who regularly compete at the highest level internationally in promotions such as the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), Cage Warriors and the Professional Fighters League (PFL). The collaboration aims to give athletes a deeper understanding of their individual biology, helping them make more informed decisions about training, recovery, nutrition and long-term wellbeing.
Founded in 2019 and led by former UFC fighter Brad “One Punch” Pickett, Great Britain Top Team has established itself as a leading training destination for professional and aspiring MMA athletes. The organization is also home to one of the UK’s largest professional female MMA teams, making it a natural fit for DEPH Labs’ work in sex-specific biological testing.
DEPH Labs’ epigenetic testing technology includes the world’s first biological age platform developed entirely using single-sex data. Unlike conventional biological age models that combine male and female data, DEPH Labs’ approach accounts for differences in how men and women age, creating opportunities for more personalized health and performance insights.
Through at-home saliva testing and AI-powered analysis, DEPH Labs is helping athletes better understand their biological age and track how their bodies respond to the demands of professional training. Repeated epigenetic testing can also help identify changes in biological markers over time, providing another way to assess whether adjustments to training, nutrition, sleep and recovery routines are associated with measurable improvements.
For MMA athletes, these insights could be particularly valuable. Professional fighters face intense physical demands, from repeated training camps and weight management to recovery between bouts. While traditional performance testing can capture an athlete’s current condition, epigenetic analysis offers an additional perspective on how their biology may be changing over longer periods.
“Elite athletes spend an enormous amount of time trying to get the best out of their bodies, but there’s still so much we don’t understand about how individuals respond to training, recovery and nutrition,” said Lisa Loud, CEO of DEPH Labs. “DNA gives us a great foundation, but it doesn’t tell the whole story. By combining epigenetic testing with AI, we can help fighters understand how their biology is changing and whether the decisions they’re making are actually working. Partnering with GB Top Team gives us an exciting opportunity to bring that technology into one of the most physically demanding sports in the world.”
“We’re always looking for ways to give our fighters an edge, and understanding what’s happening inside their bodies is a big part of that,” said Brad Pickett UFC veteran & Co-Founder of Great Britain Top Team. “Training hard is one thing, but knowing how your body responds to that training is just as important. Working with DEPH Labs gives us a rare opportunity to use DNA and epigenetic testing to better understand recovery, performance and long-term health. Every fighter is different, and the more we can personalize their training and preparation, the better.”
The collaboration also reflects a growing interest in applying precision health technology beyond traditional healthcare settings. Rather than relying on generalized recommendations, DEPH Labs aims to make personalized biological insights accessible to individuals who want to better understand their health, whether they’re professional athletes or everyday consumers. DEPH Labs is bringing this technology to consumers through ENGNE, its men’s health and longevity platform, and UMMU, which focuses on female biology. Both platforms use saliva-based epigenetic testing to help individuals track biological changes and better understand how lifestyle choices may influence their long-term health.
The partnership follows the recent appointment of Lisa Loud as CEO of DEPH Labs, where she is executing a vision to make sophisticated health technology easier to use while giving individuals direct control over their biological information. Loud brings decades of experience across technology, financial services, blockchain and digital privacy, having held senior leadership positions at Apple, PayPal, BitMEX, ShapeShift and Secret Network.
