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.

Press Release

Gerard McMann Expands Canadian Investor Education Programme with Market Insights and Retirement Planning

Published

17 minutes ago

on

July 8, 2026

By

Montreal, Canada, July 8th, 2026, FinanceWire

The Montreal-based trading platform is broadening its commitment to Canadian investors with a suite of new educational tools, updated market analysis resources, and enhanced retirement account guidance designed to serve both first-time and experienced traders across the country.

Gerard McMann, the AI-powered financial trading and investment platform operating out of Montreal, Quebec, has announced a significant expansion of its investor education and market resources programme for the Canadian market. The initiative reflects a growing demand from the firm’s Canadian client base for structured, accessible learning tools that complement the platform’s existing trading infrastructure.

The expansion adds dedicated sections to the Gerard McMann broker Canada offering, covering retirement account planning, compound interest modelling, cryptocurrency fundamentals, and multi-asset portfolio construction. Each resource has been developed with both newer investors and seasoned traders in mind, recognising that the Canadian market spans a wide range of experience levels and financial goals.

“Canadian investors deserve the same depth of resources and platform capability that institutional clients take for granted. That is the standard we are building toward.” Press Release responsable, Laura Hughes commented.

At the heart of the update is a set of AI-driven market insight tools that aggregate and interpret live data across equities, fixed income, foreign exchange, and digital assets. Rather than delivering raw data feeds, the tools are designed to surface context: why a market is moving, what historical patterns are relevant, and what variables are worth tracking for a given asset class. For Canadian investors navigating cross-border exposure between TSX-listed securities and US-listed instruments, the contextual layer adds a dimension that standard brokerage platforms do not typically provide.

Retirement Planning at the Centre of the Canadian Expansion

One of the most substantial additions to the Gerard McMann Canada offering is an expanded retirement accounts section, covering individual retirement accounts with tax-deductible contribution structures. The section includes a rebuilt compound calculator that allows users to model different contribution scenarios over time, incorporating variable return assumptions and adjustable contribution frequencies.

Retirement planning has historically been underserved by online trading platforms, which tend to focus on active traders rather than on the longer-horizon investor building toward a specific financial outcome. Gerard McMann’s decision to expand this area reflects feedback gathered from its Canadian user base, where demand for structured retirement guidance has grown alongside broader awareness of the limitations of state pension provision.

Gerard McMann Canada reviews collected from active users over the past twelve months have repeatedly highlighted the retirement account tools as a differentiating factor. Clients note that the combination of a capable trading platform with meaningful long-term planning resources is not something they had found elsewhere before making the switch.

“The most consistent piece of feedback we receive from Canadian clients is that they wanted a platform that took their long-term goals as seriously as their short-term trades.” Laura states.

Platform Infrastructure Supporting the Expansion

The educational resources sit on top of a trading infrastructure that supports more than 90 order types, spanning limit and market orders through to complex algorithmic strategies. Real-time trade confirmations, margin calculations, and portfolio assessment tools are available across web, mobile, and desktop environments, giving Canadian investors access to institutional-grade execution regardless of how or where they choose to trade.

Client securities accounts at Gerard McMann are protected. These protections apply in the event of broker-dealer failure and are independent of market conditions.

The platform’s existing infrastructure already supports clients across multiple asset classes, including equities, options, futures, foreign currencies, fixed income securities, and cryptocurrency. The July 2026 expansion does not alter the underlying trading engine but adds a resource layer that the company believes will improve outcomes for Canadian investors who arrive at the platform with clear goals but limited prior experience.

Platform Updates for Canadian Clients

For prospective clients evaluating Gerard McMann as a broker Canada option, the updated platform offers a starting point through the Gerard McMann Basics section, which has been revised to include Canadian-specific regulatory context and tax considerations. Platform tutorials have been updated to reflect the current interface, and a new series of investment concept guides covers topics including asset allocation, currency risk for cross-border portfolios, and the mechanics of dividend reinvestment.

Client onboarding follows a structured process: account registration, identity verification, account funding, and access to the full platform, including research tools and educational content. The company’s Canadian support line operates alongside its international contacts and is staffed by advisers familiar with the specific questions Canadian investors typically bring to a first consultation.

The expansion is live as of July 2026 and available to all new and existing Gerard McMann clients with Canadian accounts.

Yellow Stone Finance Group Launches Performance-Focused CFD Trading Platform for Forex, Metals and Global Indices

Published

London, UK, July 8th, 2026, FinanceWire

Yellow Stone Finance Group Ltd. has rolled out a trading platform built around three things retail and active traders consistently ask for: tighter spreads, faster execution, and access to a wider spread of markets from a single account.

The platform, available now at yellowstone-financial.com, gives traders exposure to more than 10,000 instruments across forex, shares, metals, indices, commodities and crypto CFDs all routed through the same account, the same margin pool and the same pricing engine.

For a company operating in the forex and CFD space, where execution speed and pricing transparency are often the deciding factor between brokers, Yellow Stone is leaning into both. The firm’s matching engine targets average execution speeds of around 40 milliseconds, with raw ECN pricing pulled from a pool of more than 25 tier-1 liquidity providers the kind of infrastructure more commonly associated with institutional desks than retail-facing brokers.

“Most traders don’t switch brokers because of one big problem they switch because of a dozen small frictions that add up: a slow fill here, a wider-than-expected spread there, a platform that doesn’t quite keep pace with how they actually trade,” a Yellow Stone spokesperson said. “We built this platform around removing those frictions rather than adding more bells and whistles on top of them.” Karsten Ziegler, Press Release Responsable states.

That focus shows up in how client funds are handled as well. Yellow Stone holds all client deposits in segregated accounts with tier-1 UK and EU banks, kept entirely separate from the company’s own operating funds. Retail clients also benefit from negative balance protection, meaning that even in fast-moving conditions a weekend gap or a sudden re-pricing an account cannot lose more than the equity it holds. The company also publishes quarterly best-execution reports covering average spreads, fill rates and slippage, a level of disclosure that isn’t standard practice across the industry.

Traders can access the markets through Yellow Stone’s browser-based WebTrader, native iOS and Android apps, or via REST and FIX 4.4 API connectivity for those running systematic or algorithmic strategies. Spreads on major forex pairs start from 0.0 pips, and accounts can typically be opened and funded in under five minutes, with deposit options spanning major cards, PayPal, Stripe, Wise and Bitcoin.

Whether someone is trading currency pairs around economic data releases, hedging commodity exposure, or running an automated strategy through the API, the underlying pitch is the same: one account, deep liquidity, and infrastructure that doesn’t get in the way of the trade.

About Yellow Stone Finance Group Ltd

Yellow Stone Finance Group Ltd is a UK-registered CFD broker offering trading across forex, shares, metals, indices, commodities and crypto markets through its WebTrader platform, mobile apps and API access. The company is headquartered in London, England, and focuses on execution quality, pricing transparency and segregated client fund protection.

Meet Jessica Lasher: The Internet Personality Everyone Is Starting to Notice

Published

1 hour ago

on

July 8, 2026

By

Every few months, social media seems to introduce a new personality that suddenly starts appearing everywhere. Sometimes it happens through one viral clip. Other times, it happens more naturally – through consistent content, growing engagement, and people sharing posts because they genuinely enjoy watching them.

That’s exactly what seems to be happening with Jessica Lasher.

Over the last year, the Vancouver-based creator has quietly built a growing online audience across multiple platforms, with fans continuing to discover her through Instagram, TikTok, X, and Snapchat. While she may still be considered a rising name in the creator space, more people online are starting to recognize her content the moment it appears on their feed.

Part of that comes from the energy she brings online. Jessica Lasher doesn’t come across like someone trying too hard to become internet famous. Her content feels relaxed, playful, confident, and personal at the same time – something followers tend to connect with quickly.

One scroll through her social media pages and it becomes easy to understand why her audience keeps growing. From fashion-focused content and cosplay-inspired looks to fitness clips and lifestyle moments, Jessica blends multiple styles together without making her content feel repetitive. That balance has helped her stand out in a space where many creators often end up looking the same.

Her audience also seems drawn to the contrast in her personality online. Some posts lean into a softer, more approachable side, while others carry a much more confident and bold energy. That mix has become a big part of her appeal.

Followers often mention that her content feels authentic – not overly scripted or heavily curated. In a social media environment filled with polished influencer branding, that kind of natural presence can make a huge difference.

And the numbers are beginning to reflect it.

Across social platforms, Jessica Lasher’s content has already generated millions of views, with clips continuing to circulate through repost pages, recommendations, and short-form video feeds. Even with a relatively early-stage following, her engagement levels continue growing as more viewers discover her content and start following her across multiple platforms.

That growth has happened steadily instead of overnight, which is often a stronger sign of long-term audience loyalty. Viral moments can bring temporary attention, but creators who continue gaining momentum usually build something deeper than quick internet trends.

Jessica’s audience appears to follow her because of her overall personality and presence, not just because of one specific post.

That difference matters.

Many online creators struggle to hold attention once trends move on, but Jessica Lasher’s content continues attracting repeat viewers because her audience never fully knows what kind of post they’ll see next. One day it may be a casual fitness clip, another day a cosplay-inspired shoot, and another a fashion-focused reel that spreads quickly across social feeds.

That unpredictability keeps her content interesting without making it feel random.

Her growing popularity also reflects a larger shift happening online right now. Audiences are becoming more interested in creators who feel relatable while still carrying a strong personal brand. Instead of following influencers who appear overly distant or manufactured, people are gravitating toward internet personalities who feel real enough to connect with while still standing out visually.

Jessica Lasher fits naturally into that space.

Her tattoos, confident style, and fashion aesthetic give her content a recognizable identity, while her softer personality keeps the overall vibe approachable rather than intimidating. It creates a balance that works especially well on modern social media platforms, where personality often matters just as much as appearance.

Another reason people are starting to notice Jessica is the consistency of her online presence. She remains active across multiple platforms, which helps keep her audience engaged while also expanding her visibility beyond a single app or algorithm.

That multi-platform growth has become increasingly important for creators trying to build long-term recognition online. Instead of relying on one viral moment, Jessica Lasher has been building familiarity – the kind that slowly turns casual viewers into loyal followers.

And judging by the growing attention around her name, that strategy appears to be working.

Search interest around Jessica Lasher has continued increasing as more viewers discover her content through recommendations, reposts, and fan pages. With every viral clip or shared post, new audiences are introduced to her content, creating the kind of momentum many creators spend years trying to build.

For now, Jessica Lasher remains one of the internet personalities people are just beginning to discover. But with her audience continuing to grow across platforms, it feels increasingly likely that her name will become much more recognizable in the months ahead.

Because once the internet starts paying attention to someone consistently, it usually means something bigger is already beginning.
