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.

Charles Howenstine DDS on Arresting Gum Inflammation Before It Leads to Surgery
Michigan, US, 20th February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Many patients first notice gum disease in small, easy‑to‑ignore ways. A little bleeding while brushing. Tenderness that comes and goes. Mild swelling that does not hurt enough to feel urgent. Charles Howenstine DDS often explains that these early signs matter more than people realize, because they usually reflect inflammation, not permanent damage.
Gum disease does not begin with bone loss. It starts with bacteria collecting along the gumline and triggering an inflammatory response. In the early stages, the bone and connective tissue that support the teeth remain intact. The disease is present, but it has not crossed the point where damage becomes irreversible.
This window matters. When inflammation is identified early and addressed consistently, the disease process often stops. Dentists describe this as arrested gum disease. Progression halts. Tissue stabilizes. Surgery stays off the table.
Charles Howenstine DDS emphasizes that arresting gum inflammation is not complicated, but it does require follow through. Daily brushing and flossing reduce bacterial buildup. Professional cleanings remove hardened deposits that home care cannot reach. When the bacterial load drops, the gums respond. Bleeding decreases. Swelling subsides. The tissue becomes firmer and healthier.
What surprises many patients is how much control they have at this stage. Gum inflammation does not progress on its own. It progresses when the conditions that caused it stay in place. When those conditions change, the disease slows or stops.
Consistency is the deciding factor. One cleaning does not arrest gum disease permanently. Improvement depends on maintaining habits over time. Arrested inflammation means the disease is under control, not cured. Without routine care, inflammation returns.
Surgery enters the conversation only when disease advances far enough to affect bone. At that point, treatment shifts from prevention to repair. Charles Howenstine DDS works to keep patients well clear of that threshold by identifying inflammation early and responding before damage escalates.
There is also a persistent misconception that gum disease is inevitable with age. Charles Howenstine DDS pushes back on this idea. Age does not determine outcome. Daily habits, professional maintenance, and follow through do. Many patients maintain stable gum health for decades when inflammation is addressed early and kept arrested.
Monitoring plays a central role. Arrested gum disease requires regular evaluation. Dentists assess tissue response, bleeding patterns, and pocket measurements over time. Stability confirms success. Changes signal renewed activity and prompt early correction.
Clear communication supports long‑term results. Patients are more likely to maintain habits when they understand what is happening and why it matters. When people see how small actions affect inflammation, care becomes intentional rather than reactive.
Arresting gum disease reflects partnership. Dentists provide diagnosis, guidance, and professional care. Patients bring consistency at home. Together, they prevent progression and protect the structures that keep teeth stable.
About Charles Howenstine DDS
Charles Howenstine DDS is a dentist and practice owner in Stevensville, Michigan. His clinical focus includes prevention, early intervention, and maintaining arrested gum conditions through clear communication, routine care, and disciplined follow through.
