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

From Complexity to Clarity: Solving Multi-Currency Issues in QuickBooks
Brandon, MB, Jul 02, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — For many Canadian businesses, dealing with multiple currencies is part of everyday operations. Whether working with US partners, international vendors, or cross-border customers, QuickBooks’ multi-currency feature is often enabled to handle these transactions. While useful in theory, it frequently introduces a level of complexity that can make financial management far more difficult than expected.
Once multi-currency is turned on in QuickBooks, it becomes a permanent feature of the file. Over time, this can lead to complicated account structures, inconsistent exchange rate impacts, and confusion in financial reporting. What begins as a necessary capability can quickly evolve into a source of inefficiency.
One of the most common issues businesses face is reporting accuracy. Exchange rate fluctuations affect accounts in ways that are not always intuitive, leading to discrepancies between expected and actual balances. Profit and loss statements and balance sheets may reflect gains or losses tied to currency changes rather than operational performance, making it harder to interpret financial results clearly.
Reconciliation also becomes more challenging. Matching transactions across currencies requires careful tracking of exchange rates and converted values. Even minor inconsistencies can create time-consuming discrepancies, forcing accounting teams to spend additional hours resolving differences that did not exist in a single-currency environment.
As files grow over time, these complications tend to compound. Historical transactions tied to outdated rates, combined with evolving business needs, can result in a system that feels increasingly difficult to manage. For many companies, the issue is not just complexity—it is reduced confidence in the accuracy and usability of their financial data.
To address this, businesses are turning to specialized solutions designed to simplify or remove multi-currency functionality altogether. These approaches rely on advanced tools and expertise to restructure QuickBooks files while preserving the integrity of financial data. Instead of working around the limitations of multi-currency, the file is optimized to align with the company’s current operational needs.
The result is a cleaner, more streamlined accounting environment. Financial reports become easier to read and interpret, reconciliations are faster and more straightforward, and overall system performance improves. Teams spend less time troubleshooting discrepancies and more time focusing on analysis and decision-making.
For Canadian businesses that no longer require complex multi-currency tracking—or need a simplified structure for better control—this transformation can be significant. By removing unnecessary complexity and restoring clarity, companies regain confidence in their books and efficiency in their workflows.
Multi-currency functionality may be powerful, but it is not always practical for every stage of business. With the right expertise, companies can move from complexity back to clarity, creating a financial system that supports growth rather than slowing it down.

Crossing Borders with QuickBooks: US and Canada File Conversion Made Easy
Brandon, MB, Jul 02, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — As businesses expand across borders, accounting systems often need to follow. For companies operating in both the United States and Canada, QuickBooks may seem like a unified solution—but behind the surface, the US and Canadian editions are built differently. These structural differences can create serious challenges when businesses need to move financial data from one region to another.
A QuickBooks file created in the US edition cannot simply be opened in the Canadian version, and vice versa. Each edition is designed to meet country-specific accounting standards, tax systems, and reporting requirements. This includes differences in sales tax handling, payroll structures, currency settings, and financial formatting. As a result, direct compatibility between the two versions does not exist, making file conversion a specialized task rather than a simple transfer.
Many real-world business scenarios require this type of conversion. Companies relocating operations across borders, subsidiaries aligning with a parent company’s accounting system, or organizations consolidating financial data into a single standard platform all face the same challenge. In these situations, maintaining complete and accurate financial records during the transition is essential.
Improper conversion can create significant risks. Data may be lost, misaligned, or incorrectly mapped, leading to inaccurate financial reporting. Tax codes may not translate correctly, and historical transactions can become inconsistent with local compliance requirements. These issues are not always immediately visible but can surface later during audits, filings, or internal reviews, creating costly complications.
This is why businesses turn to specialists like E-Tech, who focus specifically on cross-border QuickBooks conversions. With a deep understanding of both US and Canadian editions, E-Tech ensures that files are not only transferred but properly adapted to the target environment. Their approach accounts for structural differences, preserving data integrity while aligning it with local standards and regulations.
The result is a clean, accurate QuickBooks file that is fully functional in its new edition. Financial data remains intact, reports are reliable, and the file is ready for immediate use without the need for extensive corrections. Businesses can continue operations confidently, knowing their accounting system reflects both accuracy and compliance.
Cross-border growth should not be limited by software barriers. With the right expertise, the gap between QuickBooks editions can be effectively bridged, allowing businesses to move forward with clarity and control.

26 Years of Expertise: Why Experience Defines QuickBooks Data Recovery
Brandon, MB, Jul 02, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — QuickBooks has undergone significant transformation over the past two decades, evolving from early desktop versions to today’s more complex and integrated platforms. While these advancements have improved functionality and scalability, they have also introduced new layers of complexity when something goes wrong. When a company file becomes corrupted, recovery is no longer a simple technical fix—it requires deep expertise shaped by years of hands-on experience.
Understanding how QuickBooks file structures have changed over time is critical to successful recovery. Earlier versions used simpler database frameworks, while modern versions incorporate more advanced architecture, larger datasets, and multi-user environments. These differences mean that recovery is rarely a one-size-fits-all process. A file created years ago and upgraded multiple times may contain inconsistencies that are invisible to standard tools but critical to accurate restoration.
Real-world recovery cases often reflect this complexity. Corruption can stem from a combination of factors such as system failures, network issues, or long-term file degradation. In many situations, damage is layered, with multiple errors affecting different parts of the file. Successfully repairing these cases requires not only technical skill but also the ability to diagnose underlying issues and apply the appropriate recovery methods without compromising the data further.
This is where experience becomes a decisive advantage. Seasoned technicians bring a level of insight that cannot be replicated by automated tools alone. Having worked across multiple QuickBooks versions and encountered a wide range of corruption scenarios, they understand the nuances of file behavior and the best path to restoration. Their expertise allows them to recover data that might otherwise be considered lost, while preserving accuracy and integrity.
Experience also reduces risk. Inexperienced handling or reliance on generic repair methods can lead to partial recovery, missing transactions, or inaccurate financial records. For businesses, these outcomes can be just as damaging as data loss itself. Working with professionals who have a long track record ensures that the recovery process is controlled, precise, and aligned with real business needs.
Over more than two decades, QBRP has built its reputation on this depth of experience. By continuously adapting to changes in QuickBooks technology and refining its recovery techniques, the company has maintained consistently high success rates. Clients benefit not only from restored access to their data, but also from the confidence that their financial records are complete, correct, and ready for use.
When QuickBooks files fail, the difference between partial results and full recovery often comes down to experience. A long history of solving complex cases brings both technical capability and reliability, giving businesses a clear advantage in protecting their most valuable financial information.
