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.

Explora Books Showcases My Sister My Twin by Linda McClung at The London Book Fair 2026

Published

on

Explora Books is pleased to announce that Linda McClung’s book, My Sister My Twin will be displayed at The London Book Fair, taking place at the Olympia London in Hammersmith, London, UK, from March 10–12, 2026. This novel examines the complex bond between twin sisters, Kate and Alex, as they face a life-threatening illness and confront years of competitive behavior and buried resentment.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th Mar 2026 – Author Linda McClung, whose other books include The Healer and Seven Minutes into Darkness, presents a story that explores how family conflict shapes individual lives. The narrative begins when Kate, a first-year resident physician, receives a difficult text message from her mother: Alex, her twin sister, has been diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). This news forces Kate to set aside her personal discomfort and return home, where the deep-seated friction between the sisters is immediately put to the test.

The book alternates between the perspectives of Kate and Alex, detailing their relationship from childhood competition, such as arguments over piano lessons and high school dances, to the significant betrayal involving Sean, the man Kate thought she loved. These past hurts, including a serious incident involving a plagiarized term paper, create a wall between them just when they need each other most.

As Alex undergoes debilitating chemotherapy treatments, requiring extensive isolation and physical decline, the gravity of her situation forces the family—including their supportive brother, Mick—to rally. The story skillfully shows how Alex’s illness brings to light the true cost of their unresolved issues, especially as the prospect of a bone marrow transplant arises and Alex initially rejects Kate as a potential donor.

My Sister My Twin is a powerful story about finding common ground during a crisis. It is a study of how family members learn to move past long-held pain and find the path to true healing and forgiveness. The book delves into the nature of sisterhood and the power of emotional honesty.

Explora Books invites all attendees to discover My Sister My Twin at The London Book Fair.

Press Release

Explora Books to Feature Ruth Leedy Carr’s Alternative Earth Model, Tipping Point for a Hollow Earth, at London Book Fair

Published

on

While the scientific community remains largely silent on the stability of our planet’s rotation, a provocative new study is heading to the London Book Fair this March 10–12, 2026. Visitors to the Olympia London in Hammersmith will find Explora Books showcasing a title that challenges the standard model of our planet: Tipping Point for a Hollow Earth: How Asimov and Sagan Backed My Prophecy of a Polar Hole Shift to Europe by Ruth Leedy Carr.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th Mar 2026 – Most people look to the stars when they think of space exploration, but Carr suggests we should be looking beneath our feet. Her work investigates a looming axis shift—a geological event she argues is the most urgent issue of our age, despite being ignored by mainstream media. By connecting the dots between planetary physics and the internal structures of celestial bodies, Carr presents a case for a hollow Earth that is as unsettling as it is meticulously researched.

The book doesn’t just rely on theory; it brings heavy hitters into the fold. Carr explores how literary and scientific icons Isaac Asimov and Carl Sagan left behind a trail of clues that support her findings. By analyzing their writings and riddles, she suggests these thinkers provided a map for a future the public isn’t being prepared for.

One of the most striking elements of the book—and a certain conversation starter at the London Book Fair—is the evidence regarding Mars. Carr points to images of a lighted polar hole on the night side of the Red Planet, allegedly powered by an internal sun. The book details the strange silence from NASA when questioned about these lights, raising a sharp question: why is this data being kept in the dark?

Rather than a dry academic text, Tipping Point for a Hollow Earth functions like an interactive investigation. It uses diagrams, historical legends, and even Arthurian myths to show how the “hollow Earth” idea has been hidden in plain sight for centuries. Carr, who was once named the world’s leading proponent of this theory by researcher William L. Moore, brings her background in journalism and psychology to ensure every claim is backed by a careful examination of facts.

Attendees at the London Book Fair will have the chance to see why this book has become relevant for those who distrust the official narrative. It is a work for the curious—those who suspect that the Earth’s rotation is more fragile than we are told and that the “tipping point” is closer than it appears.

Tipping Point for a Hollow Earth: How Asimov and Sagan Backed My Prophecy of a Polar Hole Shift to Europe is available on Amazon and other major retailers.

Explora Books to Display ‘The Alliterative Alphabet Book’ at the London Book Fair 2026

Published

on

Explora Books will be displaying The Alliterative Alphabet Book by John Akin at the London Book Fair, taking place March 10–12, 2026, at Olympia London in Hammersmith, London, UK. First published in 2022, the book offers a playful yet deliberate take on early literacy, using alliteration as both its structure and its point of joy.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th Mar 2026 – At a glance, The Alliterative Alphabet Book follows the familiar A-to-Z format, but it quickly signals that it is doing something slightly different. Each letter introduces a character whose name and actions lean heavily into repeated sounds and letters. The result is a series of short vignettes that feel closer to miniature tall tales than standard alphabet prompts. The book does not rush through the letters; it lingers on language itself.

John Akin, a former elementary-level special education teacher, wrote the book with a clear teaching goal: to make learning enjoyable without flattening the language. The vocabulary is intentionally elevated, inviting an older reader to guide a younger listener. This shared reading setup becomes part of the book’s quiet strength. It creates space for conversation, questions, and laughter, rather than treating the alphabet as something to be memorized and set aside.

The humor in the book comes from excess and contrast. Angie Axlerod dazzles with aerial feats while unsettling alligators. Delbert Dimwittee, a detective by title, displays questionable judgment and stranger hobbies. Matilda Magilacutty approaches muffin-making with near-mythic focus. These moments are brief, but carefully written, using sound repetition to give each passage a rhythm that children can hear even before they understand every word.

What stands out most is the book’s respect for language. Alliteration here is not decorative; it is the engine of each page. Akin plays with both repeated sounds and repeated letters, showing how subtle shifts can change the feel of a sentence. This attention to craft makes the book appealing beyond its youngest audience, particularly to educators, parents, and readers who enjoy language for its texture as much as its meaning.

At the London Book Fair, The Alliterative Alphabet Book sits comfortably among titles that blur the line between learning tool and literary plaything. It is a reminder that alphabet books do not have to be small in ambition to be accessible. By trusting readers—both young and old—with rich words and odd characters, the book turns early literacy into a shared experience that values curiosity, humor, and sound.

Visitors can explore The Alliterative Alphabet Book at the Explora Books display during the London Book Fair, March 10–12, 2026, at Olympia London.

The Alliterative Alphabet Book is available on Amazon and other major retailers.
