Lumino Ceremony Uses A Combination Of Zero-Knowledge Proof And Blockchain To Solve The Limitations Of Privacy And Data Security
The loss of Internet data leakage is gradually increasing, and data privacy will be the key development focus of the industry. According to BM Security assessment, the average cost of global data leakage in 2018 was $3.86 million, which was 6.4% higher than that in 2017. In addition to that, the assessment also shows that large-scale data leakage is costly, with millions of records leakage possibly causing $40 million in losses, and 50 million records leakage may cause $350 million in losses. In this context, developing privacy encryption technology has become the focus of industry and market.
Zero-knowledge proof is an advanced privacy protection technology. Zero-knowledge proof is a cryptographic technology proposed by MIT researchers in the 1980s. As the name implies, zero-knowledge proof implies that you are the legal owner of a certain right without leaking relevant information, that is, to give zero information to the outsiders. Therefore, trusted computing uses cryptography such as zero-knowledge proof to complete data calculation while ensuring data privacy. Privacy protection technology based on cryptography provides a trusted environment for data calculation. Whether it is personal information, enterprise business data or unique data resources, there are hidden dangers of data leakage in the process of data exchange, storage and calculation. Cryptographic algorithms represented by zero-knowledge proof provide a solution for data security and privacy.
Zero-Knowledge Proof Provides A New Direction For The
Development Of Blockchain
The development of blockchain can not be distinguished from privacy protection technology, and cryptography is just needed for distribution of books. In a conventional blockchain transaction, when assets are sent from one party to the other, the details of the transaction are visible to each party within the network. On the contrary, in a transaction with zero knowledge proof, others only know that a valid transaction has occurred, but do not know the sender, receiver, asset class and quantity. The identity and amount involved in the transaction can be hidden, and problems such as “jump the gun” can be avoided. Zero-knowledge proof protocol supports the transfer of assets on distributed blockchain network, and has complete privacy.
ZCash is the most prominent zero-knowledge proof in blockchain-based systems, which is also the first cryptocurrency to realize zk-Snarks. Since then, other blockchain systems have also added zero-knowledge proof to verify while protecting user/transaction privacy. Perhaps, the most famous is Ethereum which realized zk-Snarks as part of the Byzantine upgrade.
Lumino Ceremony – The Starting Point Of The Application Of Zero-Knowledge Proof In Blockchain Industry
Zero-knowledge proof can realize flexible data calculation interaction and cross-validation, though it is still difficult to realize. Since it needs repeated examples to prove that the answer is true, which requires highly to hashrate. Currently the efficiency of generating proof is about 7 seconds, which requires a lot of hashrate to improve the computing speed.
At present, the biggest challenge faced by privacy computing lies in how to improve the efficiency of privacy protection and realize large-scale commercial landing. Zero-knowledge proof depends on hardware facilities, and the research and development and production of special computing hardware require huge upfront costs, so this is why the concept of privacy computing has appeared since 2014 but so far there has not been a real project.
In 2021, PlatON, a private computing AI network, announced the official launch of Lumino, a secure multi-party computing ceremony, inviting global community participants to help the development of private computing technology.
Lumino is a large-scale activity that uses secure multi-party computing protocols to generate zero knowledge proof system public reference string (CRS) in a de-trust manner, and it is a prerequisite and an important step for deploying and using privacy-related applications in a decentralized ecosystem.
Lumino means luminous and illuminated in Chinese. In Platon/Alaya’s world, Lumino is a multi-party collaborative computing ceremony that creates the necessary security parameters for one of Platon/Alaya’s cryptographic infrastructures, the Zero-knowledge Proof Protocol.
The emergence of Lumino is a milestone, which means that the formal commercialization and large-scale promotion of zero knowledge are becoming possible.

Personal Injury Near Me Directory USA Launches Claim Services Helping Individuals and Small Businesses Find Lawyers Nationwide
Personal Injury Lawyer Near Me Online Directory USA is a nationwide online platform designed to help individuals and small businesses across the United States find personal injury lawyers by location and service focus. Based in Cheyenne, Wyoming, the directory organizes legal professionals to simplify searching, comparing, and contacting lawyers who handle injury-related claims. The platform is built to support informed decision-making during situations where timely and relevant legal guidance is essential.
Cheyenne, Wyoming, United States, 23rd Jan 2026 – Personal Injury Near Me Online Directory USA has announced the introduction of Personal Injury Claim Services within its nationwide directory, expanding the platform’s role in helping individuals and small businesses across the United States connect with experienced personal injury lawyers. The expansion reflects growing demand for accessible, location-based legal support as injury-related claims continue to place financial and operational strain on households and small enterprises nationwide.

The United States sees a sustained volume of personal injury incidents each year. According to federal transportation data, motor vehicle crashes alone result in millions of injuries annually, many requiring legal assistance to resolve insurance disputes, medical cost recovery, and liability questions. Workplace injuries remain another significant contributor, with the Bureau of Labor Statistics reporting millions of nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses each year, a substantial portion of which involve small and mid-sized businesses. These figures illustrate a consistent, nationwide need for reliable access to personal injury legal services.
Why This Expansion Matters
Personal injury claims are rarely straightforward. They often involve multiple parties, medical documentation, insurance negotiations, and strict timelines governed by state law. For individuals and small business owners, navigating these processes without experienced legal guidance can lead to delayed resolutions, reduced compensation, or procedural missteps.
Research published in legal and insurance industry studies indicates that claimants who engage legal counsel early are more likely to reach timely settlements and better understand their obligations throughout the process. Despite this, many people still rely on general online searches or advertising-driven listings that provide little clarity about a lawyer’s focus, availability, or relevance to their specific situation.
The introduction of Personal Injury Claim Services within the directory is designed to address this gap by organizing legal professionals around the real-world needs of claimants, rather than broad or generic legal categories.
“After an injury, time and clarity matter,” said Luke D., spokesperson for Personal Injury Near Me Online Directory USA. “People are dealing with medical appointments, lost income, and uncertainty. This expansion is about making it easier to identify lawyers who routinely handle injury claims and understand the pressures individuals and small businesses face.”
How the Platform Works for Users
The directory is structured to reduce friction at the point of search and contact. Users can locate personal injury lawyers through a clear, step-by-step process:
- Search by Location: Users enter a city, state, or ZIP code to find lawyers practicing in their area, reflecting the importance of local jurisdiction and state-specific laws.
- Compare Services: Listings present practice areas such as auto accidents, workplace injuries, premises liability, product liability, and wrongful death, allowing users to narrow results based on claim type.
- Direct Contact: Users can reach out to lawyers directly to discuss their situation, request consultations, or clarify next steps.
- Shared Experiences: Reviews and feedback help future users make informed decisions based on real interactions.
This approach is intended to save time and reduce uncertainty during a period when many users are already under stress.
The Key Benefit for Users
The primary benefit for users is confidence grounded in relevance. By using Personal Injury Near Me Online Directory USA, individuals and small businesses can:
- Reduce reliance on scattered search results or generalized advertising.
- Identify lawyers who focus on the type of injury claim they are facing.
- Compare options side by side within their local area.
- Move forward with clearer expectations and fewer delays.
For small business owners, this can be especially important. Data from the U.S. Small Business Administration shows that legal disputes and injury-related claims can significantly disrupt cash flow and operations. Quick access to appropriate legal support can help businesses respond responsibly while limiting long-term impact.
A Practical Resource for Small Businesses
Small businesses account for nearly half of private-sector employment in the United States. When injuries occur—whether involving employees, customers, or commercial activities—owners must balance legal obligations with day-to-day operations. Many do not have in-house legal teams and need external counsel they can trust.
By highlighting lawyers experienced in handling injury claims relevant to business environments, the directory supports owners who need timely, practical legal assistance. This includes matters such as workplace injury claims, third-party liability issues, and accident-related disputes involving company vehicles or premises.
A Solution for Legal Professionals
For personal injury lawyers, visibility remains a persistent challenge. The legal services market is competitive, and traditional advertising channels often favor large firms with extensive marketing budgets. Industry surveys show that a growing share of clients now begin their search for legal help online, prioritizing location and practice focus over firm size.
Personal Injury Near Me Online Directory USA provides an alternative channel by connecting lawyers with users who are actively seeking injury-related legal services in specific geographic areas. This relevance benefits both sides: users find appropriate counsel more quickly, and lawyers receive inquiries aligned with their practice.
Benefits for Lawyers Include:
- More Relevant Inquiries: Users searching the directory are already focused on personal injury claims.
- Local Reach: Lawyers can be discovered by clients within their service area, reflecting how personal injury cases are typically handled.
- Balanced Visibility: Smaller practices gain exposure alongside larger firms without relying solely on high-cost advertising.
This structure helps level the playing field while keeping the focus on user needs rather than promotional spend.
Categories of Personal Injury Claim Services Covered
The directory’s Personal Injury Claim Services encompass a broad range of common injury scenarios, ensuring users can find lawyers aligned with their specific circumstances. These include:
- Motor vehicle accidents involving cars, trucks, and motorcycles.
- Workplace and occupational injuries.
- Slip-and-fall and premises liability cases.
- Product liability and consumer safety claims.
- Wrongful death and serious injury matters.
By organizing services in this way, the platform reflects how claimants actually experience legal needs—by incident type, not abstract legal labels.
Industry Insight: Growing Demand for Accessible Legal Support
Several national trends reinforce the timing of this expansion. Medical cost inflation has increased the financial stakes of injury claims, while insurance industry reports note rising claim complexity and longer resolution timelines. At the same time, consumer research consistently shows that people value clear information and local relevance when selecting legal services.
Legal analysts have also observed that early access to knowledgeable counsel can reduce procedural errors and improve communication between parties, contributing to more efficient outcomes. These findings support the need for platforms that simplify the discovery process without oversimplifying the legal realities involved.
Building Trust Through Structure and Clarity
Rather than overwhelming users with excessive information, Personal Injury Near Me Online Directory USA focuses on structure, relevance, and usability. Listings are organized to help users answer practical questions: Who handles this type of claim? Are they local? Can I contact them easily?
This emphasis on clarity supports better decision-making for users while encouraging responsible engagement between lawyers and potential clients.
Nationwide Coverage with Local Context
Although headquartered in Cheyenne, Wyoming, the directory serves users across all 50 states. This nationwide reach recognizes that while personal injury law is governed by state-specific rules, the need for accessible legal support is universal.
Users in large metropolitan areas and smaller communities alike can use the same search framework, helping ensure that access to legal information is not limited by geography.

Major Advance in Lightweight and Privacy-Preserving NLP: EmByte Achieves High Accuracy Using Only 1/10Embedding Memory
Brunswick, New Jersey, 23rd January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, A newly published study in the Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: EMNLP 2025 introduces EmByte, a natural language processing (NLP) model that dramatically reduces embedding memory usage while improving accuracy and strengthening privacy protections. Developed by Jia Xu Stevens and collaborators, EmByte demonstrates that modern language models can operate with approximately 1/10 of the embedding memory used by conventional subword-based systems, while also achieving better task accuracy and up to 3-fold improvements in privacy resistance.
The EMNLP 2025 Findings paper presents EmByte as a byte-level embedding framework that replaces large subword vocabularies with compact, decomposed representations. This design significantly reduces the memory footprint of embedding layers—traditionally one of the largest components of NLP models—without increasing sequence length or computational overhead.
Small Embeddings, Strong Results
Embedding tables in standard NLP models often contain tens or hundreds of thousands of entries, consuming large amounts of memory and posing privacy risks when exposed to inversion or reconstruction attacks. EmByte addresses these challenges by representing text at the byte level and applying a decomposition-and-compression learning strategy that preserves semantic information while occupying much less space.
Experimental results reported in the EMNLP 2025 Findings paper show that EmByte:
-
Uses about 5% of the embedding memory required by typical subword models
-
Matches or exceeds accuracy on benchmark tasks such as classification, language modeling, and machine translation
-
Provides significantly stronger privacy protection, making it substantially harder to reconstruct original text from embeddings or gradients
These results demonstrate that embedding size reduction does not require sacrificing model quality. Instead, careful design of the representation can improve both performance and security.
Privacy by Design
A key contribution of EmByte is its impact on privacy. Because byte-level embeddings avoid direct one-to-one mappings between tokens and semantic units, they reduce the amount of recoverable information stored in each vector. This makes common attacks—such as embedding inversion and gradient leakage—far less effective.
According to the EMNLP 2025 Findings results, EmByte’s structure provides roughly three times stronger resistance to privacy attacks than standard embedding approaches. This makes the model especially relevant for sensitive domains such as healthcare, finance, and personal communications, where data protection is critical.
Built on a Long Line of Research
The EmByte framework builds directly on Jia Xu Stevens’s long trajectory of researchin efficient text representation, segmentation, and multilingual processing. Earlier work laid the conceptual and technical foundations for compact and robust language modeling, including:
-
Research on byte-based and subword modeling for multilingual and low-resource settings (EMNLP 2020; COLING 2022)
-
Studies on Chinese word segmentation and synchronous modeling that emphasized efficient representation and structural alignment
-
Early work in machine translation and speech-to-text processing that explored minimal and adaptive linguistic units
Together, these contributions reflect a consistent research direction: reducing redundancy in language representations while improving robustness, generalization, and security.
Implications for Real-World AI
By drastically reducing the memory requirements for embedding, EmByte enables the deployment of capable NLP models in environments with strict memory and privacy constraints. This includes:
-
On-device and edge AI systems
-
Privacy-sensitive enterprise and government applications
-
Large-scale systems where embedding tables dominate memory cost
EmByte also aligns with a broader shift in AI research away from purely scaling model size and toward architectural efficiency and responsible design.
Looking Forward
With its publication in Findings of EMNLP 2025, EmByte is positioned to influence future work on embedding design, privacy-preserving NLP, and efficient language models. The results suggest that smaller, more secure representations can outperform larger ones when designed with structure and learning dynamics in mind.
As language models continue to be integrated into everyday technology, approaches like EmByte point toward a future in which accuracy, efficiency, and privacy improve together rather than compete.
About Jia Xu Stevens
Jia Xu Stevens is a researcher in natural language processing and machine learning whose work spans efficient language representation, multilingual modeling, privacy-preserving AI, and text segmentation. Over the course of her research career, Jia Xu Stevens has contributed foundational and applied work across multiple generations of NLP systems, from early machine translation and word segmentation frameworks to modern embedding compression and privacy-aware language models.
Her research has been published at leading international venues, including EMNLP, COLING, IWSLT, and other ACL-affiliated conferences. A recurring theme in her work is the design of compact, structured language representations that improve robustness, generalization, and efficiency while reducing memory usage and privacy risks. This line of research includes early studies on synchronous segmentation and translation, later advances in subword and byte-based modeling, and recent innovations in embedding compression and privacy resistance.
Jia Xu Stevens’ work emphasizes architectural efficiency over brute-force scaling, demonstrating that carefully designed representations can outperform larger models while enabling safer real-world deployment. Her recent research continues to focus on building language technologies that are accurate, lightweight, and privacy-conscious, with applications ranging from multilingual NLP to on-device and resource-constrained AI systems.

Brandon Hilleary on Reducing Paid Advertising Volatility in a Post-Privacy Era
- Why most ecommerce campaigns swing too hard—and what to do instead.
Seattle, Washington, 23rd January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, If you run paid ads, you’ve probably felt it: performance looks great one week, tanks the next. Creative stops working without warning. Your ROAS drops, but nothing obvious changed. For brands trying to grow, this kind of instability isn’t just stressful—it’s expensive.
Brandon Hilleary, a ecommerce growth consultant, sees this kind of volatility all the time. He works with direct-to-consumer brands —companies that rely on Meta, TikTok, and Google Ads to drive growth but feel like they’re flying blind.
“A lot of the instability people feel is baked into how their system works,” Hilleary says. “It’s not always the algorithm or the market. Sometimes the problem is that there’s no structure holding things up.”
He focuses on helping teams put that structure in place. That doesn’t mean building complicated dashboards or obsessing over attribution. It means stepping back, simplifying, and fixing three core issues: creative fatigue, test chaos, and knee-jerk budget shifts.
Creative Fatigue Is More Predictable Than You Think
Hilleary sees creative burnout as the number one reason campaigns start to slip. Brands usually don’t notice until results have already fallen off.
“The same ads keep running. Maybe they worked last month, but now people have seen them three times and they scroll right past,” he explains. “Instead of having new ideas ready, the team scrambles to make small edits—change a headline, swap the first three seconds—and hopes that’s enough.”
It rarely is.
He helps brands build a simple creative rhythm—introducing one or two new concepts every few weeks before fatigue sets in. These aren’t cosmetic tweaks. Each one explores a different angle, like showing how the product works, telling a customer story, or teaching something useful.
When you rotate fresh, well-thought-out ideas into your campaigns on a set schedule, performance gets more stable. There’s always something new to test—and something proven to fall back on.
Testing Doesn’t Work When It’s Random
Another reason campaigns get shaky? Disorganized testing.
“A lot of teams say they’re testing, but what they’re really doing is launching a bunch of stuff at once and hoping something sticks,” Hilleary says. “That’s not testing. That’s gambling.”
Instead, he sets up lightweight testing systems. One or two concepts go into test mode. The team decides in advance what they’re trying to learn and what success looks like. Results are reviewed on a schedule. If something works, it moves into the main campaign. If not, it’s logged and replaced.
This kind of structure reduces wasted budget and keeps creative testing from disrupting performance. It also builds institutional knowledge over time, which makes every round of testing smarter than the last.
The Budget Whiplash Problem
When results dip, many founders and ad buyers make sudden changes to spend—cutting budgets hard or turning off entire campaigns.
“It’s understandable,” Hilleary says. “But it’s also part of the volatility problem.”
He helps teams move away from daily decisions and toward weekly or biweekly pacing. Budgets are adjusted based on trends, not isolated bad days. Review windows are built into the calendar. That buffer gives the algorithm time to adjust and gives the team time to think clearly.
He also encourages brands to define rules ahead of time—when to scale, when to hold, and what metrics matter most. That way, no one is guessing under pressure.
What Stable Growth Looks Like
In a post-privacy world, advertising feels harder than it used to. You can’t see everything that’s happening. Attribution is messier. Audiences are broader. But that doesn’t mean performance has to feel chaotic.
Hilleary’s work helps brands build systems that absorb the noise.
- Creative stays fresh and on schedule
- Tests are limited, tracked, and purposeful
- Budgets move based on real patterns, not panic
When those pieces are in place, everything calms down. Teams stop chasing short-term spikes. Founders trust the process. Results may not always be flashy, but they stop falling apart without warning.
“It’s not about making volatility disappear,” Hilleary says. “It’s about building a setup where volatility doesn’t ruin your month.”
For growing ecommerce brands in Seattle and beyond, that shift can make the difference between unpredictable plateaus and consistent, confident progress.
