Lumino, lightening up the world of secure multi-party computation

Published

New digital era, new demand of security

With the advent of the era of big data, the leakage and abuse of personal privacy data are common, which not only disturbs the normal market order, but also seriously restricts the innovation and development of the digital economy. In recent years, many countries have carried out relevant legislation of digital economy and data governance, which makes the legal requirements of personal privacy data more rigorous, and the supervision system is becoming increasingly strict. The various online scenarios led by the Covid-19 not only bring convenience to our life, but also cause a lot of security demand of data protection

Therefore, the data producers, such as government agencies, operators, platforms, are constantly raising the legal standards of storage, transmission and transaction. It has brought a problem to the data owners: how can fully utilize the data resource endowment to create business profits and social value, meanwhile ensure that the data privacy is protected in accordance with supervision provisions? The real demand behind the problem is bound to give birth to new technologies. The combination of blockchain and secure multi-party computation provides a new solution for breaking the “data island”, ensuring data security and releasing data value.

Recently, as the leader in the global blockchain industry, PlatON has started a new journey in the construction of privacy computation infrastructure, launching the secure multi-party computation ceremony—— Lumino. Lumino aims to create system parameters in a decentralized way, which could help build a real community-based, open-source blockchain ecosystem and ensure the underlying security of the main network and the reliability of future digital applications.

The “chemical reaction” of blockchain and secure multi-party computation

To understand the essence of Lumino, we need to understand the blockchain and secure multi-party computation. Blockchain is a technical solution that does not rely on a third party and a network that stores, verifies, transmits and communicates through its own distributed nodes. The core problems it solves are network decentralization, data consistency and tamper-prevent. Secure multi-party computation is to solve the problem of privacy protection among a group of mutual distrusted participants. It should ensure the independence, correctness decentralization and do not disclose the data to other participants. Secure multi-party computation was firstly proposed by professor Yao Qizhi, who is a Chinese computer scientist and the winner of Turing prize. Since 2010, the development of executable general compiler makes its concept gradually well-known.

It can be seen that both blockchain and multi-party security computation are technologies dealing with data interaction between a group of participants according to specific rules. However, blockchain is mainly used to verify the correctness of the calculation, and the purpose is to achieve the consistent recognition of the results and prevent the results from being tampered with; the purpose of secure multi-party computation (MPC) is to get specific results in the case of data confidentiality, and emphasis on privacy protection in data share situation.

When secure multi-party computation encounters blockchain, the integration has become a technology trend that attracts much attention. Due to the different traits of blockchain and multi-party security computation, they are not exclusive and can complement each other. Blockchain can improve its ability of data confidentiality by using secure multi-party computation to adapt to complex environments; while secure multi-party computation can complete redundant computation with the help of blockchain to obtain verifiable and unique results.

The combination of MPC and blockchain is ultimately to meet the more complex and changeable real needs, especially for various environments of data exchange and sharing. For example, secure multi-party computation can realize key management in the blockchain wallet, and divide the management right of assets reasonably to reduce the risk of single key loss. It can also realize the cross-domain access of EHR data. Based on personal digital identity infrastructure, hospital A could apply for data access to hospital B by obtaining the patient’s authorization, which does not need directly return the patient’s medical record data. It would meet the dual goals of diagnosis needs and privacy protection.

New practice in privacy protection——PlatON & Lumino

Secure multi-party computation is essentially a solution for data security. It is consisted of cryptographic technologies such as obfuscation circuit, secret sharing, homomorphic encryption, etc. PlatON has already realized the layout in these fileds. The key to secure multi-party computation is to use zero knowledge proof to prove that there is no leakage, which is also the key to Lumino.

Most of the existing efficient zero-knowledge proof algorithms need to create system parameters in a centralized way, so the third party who creates the parameters may forge proofs to destroy the underlying security of the main network. Lumino aims to generate the system parameters of the zero-knowledge proof through secure multi-party computation. In this process, the parameters are generated by members altogether, so they will not be obtained or tampered by a single party. This also constitutes the cornerstone of the subsequent privacy protection application. Only when the activity held safely, the subsequent decentralized application will be more secure.

This ceremony is PlatON’s latest practice in the field of privacy protection, and Lumino’s goal is to link the world’s cryptographic geeks to build a global privacy computation infrastructure. In the future community-based and open-source blockchain ecosystem, every participant is an important node, and every participation will make the underlying network more secure. Therefore, this is not only an activity, but also a collective wisdom full of ritual sense. PlatON will also take this opportunity to realize the vision of building infrastructure in the digital era, and make every effort to be the best practitioner in the field of privacy security.

Author James R Morris Releases Historical Fiction Novel

Published

on

Water War presents a fictional account set in 1920s California, inspired by the history of water acquisition by Los Angeles in the Owens Valley.

New York City, New York, United States, 4th Mar 2026 – Author James R Morris announces the release of his novel, Water War: The Fight For California Water In The 1920s. The book is a work of Historical Fiction and is available on Amazon in multiple formats.

About the Book Theme

Water War: The Fight For California Water In The 1920s is a Historical Fiction novel set in California during the 1920s. The story is based on real historical events connected to the acquisition of water by Los Angeles from the Owens Valley.

The novel follows a ranching family living in the Owens Valley during a period of major change. At that time, Los Angeles was increasing the amount of water it was taking from the Owens Valley. The book presents this period of California history through the daily lives and experiences of local residents.

The narrative provides a fictional account inspired by documented events. It presents the social and economic conditions of the time and highlights how infrastructure projects affected rural communities. As a work of Historical Fiction, the novel combines historical background with imagined characters and personal stories.

This publication contributes to the limited number of novels written about the Owens Valley water developments of the early twentieth century. While several nonfiction works have examined the subject, this book approaches the topic through a fictional format.

Genre and Category

 
The book is classified as Historical Fiction. It explores a significant period in California history and presents it in narrative form. Readers interested in Historical Fiction that is rooted in documented events will find this work relevant.

Author Background

James R Morris was born and raised in Owens Valley, California. His family has lived in the region for several generations. During his childhood, he lived in verious Owens Valley communities, including Olancha, Lone Pine, Bishop, and Independence.

He also spent summers in the mountains with local ranching families. During those years, he heard firsthand accounts from people who had knowledge of the historical events that later became part of this novel’s background.

Morris later attended the University of California, Berkeley, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree, a Master of Business Administration, and a PhD in finance. He taught finance at the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Houston, and the University of Colorado Denver. He retired as Professor Emeritus.

In his academic career, Morris has written numerous professional and academic articles in finance. He is also the author of three textbooks on financial modeling:

●  The Dow Jones-Irwin Guide to Financial Modeling (1987)

●  Introduction to Financial Models for Management and Planning (2009, with John Daley)

●   Introduction to Financial Models for Management and Planning, Second Edition (2017, with John Daley)

Although his professional background is in finance, he has maintained a long-standing interest in history, particularly the history of California. Water War: The Fight For California Water In The 1920s reflects that interest and his personal connection to the Owens Valley region.

He currently lives in Denver, Colorado.

New evidence-based book challenges the two most dominant worldviews in today’s world

Published

on

The long-standing religious belief in an all-powerful deity controlling human destiny through his will, and the equally entrenched materialistic scientific belief that existence is purely random and devoid of meaning.

Seattle, Washington, United States, 4th Mar 2026 – Award-winning researcher James Ross Godbe releases Stillpoint: The Geometry of Consciousness, a scientific/spiritual effort intending to spark a global shift in human consciousness.  The information presented in Stillpoint establishes a startling and hopeful new understanding of our world, all based on empirical evidence.

In Stillpoint, Godbe delivers a bold and meticulously reasoned synthesis of scientific inquiry and ancient spiritual wisdom. Drawing on newly uncovered empirical evidence to support its central claim, the book asserts that our solar system was intentionally created by an  enlightened, evolved, consciousness for a purpose – with profound implications for humanity’s survival. 

Drawing upon the insights of Albert Einstein, M.K. Gandhi, Jane Goodall, Hannah Arendt, the Dalai Lama, and others, Godbe aligns his narrative with a lineage of respected observers who have each warned that, without a fundamental shift in human consciousness, humanity will not be able to alter the direction it’s headed – the 6th extinction.

Critically, the book presents evidence that the creators of our solar system embedded a communication in the scientifically impossible dimensions of the Earth, Moon, and Sun – a communication designed to catalyze a leap in the frequency of human awareness should civilization reach a point of existential danger.

Godbe boldly describes the central discovery presented in Stillpoint as “the most important information humanity has had the opportunity to know in the last 12,000 years.” A short, opening video available at the beginning of the website www.stillpointdesign.org provides an introduction to the discoveries and their implications, and why such a claim would be made.

A recipient of the 1st Prize in the Spirituality category from the Next Generation Indie Book Awards, Stillpoint brings a disciplined and deeply researched approach to its worldview with every claim supported by verifiable evidence, giving the work its lasting gravity. The book invites readers to question prevailing understandings of our world, while offering a factual, hopeful, transformative, and deeply human perspective on our role in the cosmos.  

 

Stillpoint: The Geometry of Consciousness

 

 

The author is an interdisciplinary designer/builder/researcher living in the high desert of California’s Owens Valley.

Stillpoint: The Geometry of Consciousness – where science meets the sacred, and action invites awakening – is now available on Amazon and wherever books are sold.
