Lumino Secure Multi-Party Computing: A New Generation Of Data Security Sharing Solution
The Dilemma Of Digital Economy
The most critical and cardinal element of the digital economy is data. Data is the “oil” of digital economy. Hence, utilizing the “data oil” safely and efficiently is the focal point of global economic digital transformation. On the one hand, the digital economy has entered a high-speed development age. The global digital economy has reached 36.2% of global GDP. It is necessary to open up the “data island” among enterprises and establish an open and shared digital resource environment. On the other hand, the public is paying more and more attention to personal privacy and data security, and regulators have introduced a series of regulations to ensure information security. For example, car companies buy parts back and assemble them into cars, the ownership belongs to the car companies, while parts manufacturers also make it clear that once the parts are sold to factories, the factories have ownership. But the data level is more sensitive. Personal data include the face, voice, name, height and other sensitive personal privacy specifics. How to define the ownership of the data between these parties? At present, there are no clear legal provisions, nor the industry has clear answers. In foreign practice, the EU has made very strict data protection regulations, but the entire EU data information technology industry lags behind China and the United States.
Because data protection is too strict, data from different sources do not interact, data is not open and can not interact to generate value and to improve the efficiency of the economy as a whole. The EU is not a good example, because it does not balance the relationship between data privacy protection and the development of the data industry.
Privacy protection and data security need multi-party promotion
Facing the dilemma of data security and sharing, the “available and invisible” secure multi-party computing provides us with an innovative solution.
Secure multi-party computing is a calculation process performed by multiple participants. Multi-party computing technology includes inadvertent transmission, secret sharing and confusing circuit. Multi-party computing has the advantage of high confidentiality and maneuverability, and each party has absolute control over the data it owns. Secure multi-party computing can be applied to networks where participants are not trusted. Participants can know the agreed results of collaborative computation, but they can’t get or deduce the original contents of the data. The flow of data and the collaborative analysis are of great value in all industries, and have brought about a lot of application demands. There are two main scenarios in the market:
1) Data security query
In the big data age, the data that the enterprise holds itself often cannot satisfy the demand of business analysis, many enterprises will purchase the external data to expand the data source. When an enterprise uses an external database to query, it faces the risk of divulging the query condition information. MPC technology helps enterprises to set up a secure query to obtain more external data under the condition of ensuring their own data security, thereby deepening the digital transformation and making better use of big data technology to optimize business.
2) Data joint analysis
Joint analysis often faces two headwinds. On one hand, it is illegal to trade personal privacy information. On the other hand, data sharing makes data-holding companies lose their competitive edge. MPC technology, through inadvertently querying, makes the data not public, the query object not exposed, and the results can be correctly given feedback for, which has an important application in the financial risk control business.
Lumino: new ideas for secure multi-party computing
Lumino is a large-scale activity that uses secure multi-party computing protocols to generate zero knowledge proof system public reference string (CRS) in a de-trust manner, and it is a prerequisite and an important step for deploying and using privacy-related applications in a decentralized ecosystem. The activity now focuses on the PLONK algorithm. As a practical and efficient zk-SNARK algorithm, PLONK is often used in blockchain projects and communities, which is characterized by only one-time initialization process, i. e. running once, it can be used to support a variety of underlying circuit logic and multi-class application deployment.
Lumino’s vision, from the start, was to link the world’s cryptographic geeks to become co-creators and witnesses of privacy computing infrastructure, not just an event but a ritual. We changed the method of centralizing system parameters into a distributed one. For a truly community-based and open-source blockchain ecosystem, each of which is the most critical link, and each participant who joins makes the bottom one safer, which would be a ceremonial collective wisdom.
Lumino is the cornerstone of subsequent de-centering privacy protection applications based on zero-knowledge proof, and the subsequent de-centralization applications will be safer only if the activity is safely completed.

New York, NY – 01/02/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – TCG.Zone (The Collectors Grid), a key player in the global collectibles infrastructure and ecosystem, has officially unveiled its strategic shift toward prioritizing investments in high-value, rare collectible assets. This strategic realignment underscores the company’s commitment to tapping into the long-term value and cultural significance of elite collectibles, with the recent participation in a high-profile international auction serving as a pivotal first step in this new direction.
Recently, the world’s only Pokémon card graded PSA 10 – Pikachu Illustrator – once again became a focal point of global attention across the collectibles and cultural landscape. As a long-term contributor to TCG infrastructure and the broader collectibles ecosystem, The Collectors Grid(TCG.Zone) participated in and witnessed this historically significant moment.
Recognized as one of the most iconic works in Pokémon card history, Pikachu Illustrator is distinguished not only by its extreme rarity, but also by its symbolic representation of Pokémon culture, artistic value, and generational memory.
The Legendary Status of the World’s Only PSA 10
According to publicly available information, the world’s only PSA 10 “Pikachu Illustrator” card is currently owned by Logan Paul. The card was involved in a high-profile transaction in 2022, valued at nearly USD 5.3 million, marking a defining milestone in the history of Pokémon card collecting.
The Industry Significance of Goldin Auctions
Although Logan Paul’s acquisition of the card did not take place through Goldin, the Goldin auction platform has continued to play an important role in the card’s contemporary circulation and visibility. As one of the world’s most influential high-end collectibles auction platforms, Goldin’s auction framework and the attention it generates brought renewed global focus to this legendary card, further positioning Pokémon cards within the broader mainstream collectibles market.
Netflix Documentary Captures a Cultural Moment
Amid the phenomenon-level attention generated by this card on the Goldin platform, Netflix documented the full auction process and produced a dedicated documentary. Approached from a cultural and historical perspective, the documentary highlights the unique position of Pikachu Illustrator within the modern collectibles ecosystem, elevating it beyond price alone and framing it as a lasting cultural reference.
Global Participation and TCG.Zone’s Involvement
The discussions and auction activity surrounding Pikachu Illustrator attracted participation from top collectors, institutions, and professional teams from around the world. TCG.Zone was among the active participants in the bidding process. During the auction, TCG.Zone submitted a bid of USD 5,000,000. Although the bid was ultimately surpassed by a higher offer, TCG.Zone remained deeply engaged throughout the process and witnessed this pivotal moment firsthand.
Continuing to Follow the Card’s Future Trajectory
In post-auction interviews, TCG.Zone stated that this participation does not mark an endpoint. The team will continue to closely monitor the movement and future trajectory of the world’s only PSA 10 Pikachu Illustrator, and does not rule out participating again should the right opportunity arise. This event represents more than an auction. It stands as a collective reflection on rarity, cultural identity, and long-term value.
The story of Pikachu Illustrator continues to unfold,and remains an enduring chapter in the global history of Pokémon card collecting.

Press Release
New Novel I Did Good, Sir by Randall N. Ross Explores Vocation, Mentorship, and the Quiet Work of Becoming
I Did Good, Sir follows Jack Reilly from his earliest encounters with mentorship through his professional formation and adult life. Set largely within veterinary practice and rural environments, the novel explores how a sensitive individual learns to navigate authority, responsibility, and self-doubt. Through a series of reflective episodes, the story examines how vocation, care, and language shape a person’s understanding of worth and direction.
United States, 1st Feb 2026 – A new work of reflective literary fiction, I Did Good, Sir by Randall N. Ross, has been released and is beginning to draw attention from readers interested in inward journeys, formative mentorship, and lives shaped by service rather than spectacle. The novel traces the emotional and spiritual development of its central character through moments of apprenticeship, loss, and moral testing, offering a restrained examination of how identity is formed over time.
Ross’s novel centers on Jack Reilly, a sensitive and observant young man whose early encounters with authority figures, animals, and responsibility leave a lasting imprint. Moving between childhood, professional training, and adulthood, the narrative follows Jack as he navigates expectations imposed by family, institutions, and mentors, while quietly attempting to listen for a more personal sense of direction. The book’s title echoes a pivotal moment in the story, a simple phrase that reflects both approval and misunderstanding, and becomes a touchstone for the novel’s broader inquiry into worth, language, and intention.
Rather than relying on dramatic plot turns, I Did Good, Sir unfolds through scenes of attention and presence. Much of the novel is set within veterinary clinics, rural landscapes, classrooms, and transitional spaces such as cabins and roadways. Animals appear not as symbols but as living beings requiring care, patience, and humility, mirroring the protagonist’s own learning curve. The work invites readers to consider how vocation can function not only as a career, but as a moral practice shaped by listening, repetition, and accountability.
Early readers have noted the novel’s measured pace and its emphasis on interior experience. Responses have highlighted Ross’s refusal to offer easy resolutions, instead allowing moments to accumulate meaning gradually. Several readers have pointed to the book’s depiction of mentorship as particularly resonant, emphasizing how guidance is shown as imperfect, human, and deeply influential without being idealized. Others have remarked on the quiet tension between external success and internal alignment that runs throughout the narrative.
The prose style of I Did Good, Sir is deliberately unadorned. Ross employs plainspoken language and close observation, trusting the reader to engage with what is left unsaid. The novel’s structure reflects this approach, favoring episodic movement and reflection over conventional plot escalation. This restraint aligns with the book’s thematic concern for attention, a quality that Ross has described as central to both his professional and creative life.
In a brief comment on the book’s origins, Ross noted, “I wasn’t interested in writing a story that explains itself. I wanted to write something that stays close to how learning actually feels, uncertain, repetitive, and shaped by small moments that don’t announce their importance at the time.” That sensibility is evident throughout the novel, which resists categorization as either purely coming-of-age or professional fiction, instead occupying a reflective space between the two.
Although the novel is not autobiographical in a literal sense, it draws on environments and experiences familiar to the author. The veterinary settings, in particular, are rendered with specificity and respect, reflecting years of firsthand knowledge. These details ground the story while allowing it to address broader questions about service, competence, and the ethical weight of care. According to the book’s publication details, I Did Good, Sir is a work of fiction, and its characters and events are imaginative constructions rather than direct representations .
The book’s reception thus far suggests that it is finding an audience among readers who value contemplative fiction and narratives centered on moral attention rather than spectacle. Podcast hosts and cultural editors have expressed interest in the novel’s crossover appeal, particularly its relevance to conversations about work, calling, and the often unspoken emotional lives of those in caregiving professions. The novel’s themes also resonate with readers navigating transitions, whether professional, personal, or spiritual.
I Did Good, Sir arrives at a moment when many readers are reexamining inherited definitions of success and fulfillment. By focusing on the slow accumulation of understanding rather than decisive triumphs, the novel contributes to a growing body of literature concerned with inward development and ethical presence. Its questions are not framed as problems to be solved, but as conditions to be lived with attentively.
Brief synopsis
I Did Good, Sir follows Jack Reilly from his earliest encounters with mentorship through his professional formation and adult life. Set largely within veterinary practice and rural environments, the novel explores how a sensitive individual learns to navigate authority, responsibility, and self-doubt. Through a series of reflective episodes, the story examines how vocation, care, and language shape a person’s understanding of worth and direction.
About the author
Randall N. Ross was raised in Torrington, Connecticut, in a family shaped by work, routine, and quiet perseverance. Drawn early to animals and the people who cared for them, he pursued a career in veterinary medicine that included years of training, farm work, and clinical practice. He later founded Vermont’s first small animal mobile veterinary clinic, which he operated for more than three decades.
Alongside his scientific and professional life, Ross has maintained a long-standing creative practice. He has written song lyrics performed on national television, composed music staged off-Broadway, and published poetry focused on reflection and inner experience. These creative pursuits have informed his fiction, which often examines service, mentorship, and attentiveness as lived practices rather than abstract ideals.
I Did Good, Sir reflects this convergence of experience. While fictional, the novel draws on emotional and ethical landscapes familiar to the author, exploring how individuals learn to listen, serve, and continue becoming without certainty. Ross continues to write fiction that extends the questions introduced in this work.

Randall N. Ross is available for interviews, podcast conversations, and literary discussions related to I Did Good, Sir, including topics such as reflective fiction, vocation, mentorship, and the intersection of professional life and creative practice.

Five Global Megatrends Highlighted at Open Dialogue Expert Forum at the Russia National Centre
Moscow, Russia – 31/01/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Expert Dialogues were held for the first time within the Open Dialogue framework at the Russia National Centre in Moscow on 30 January. The forum focused on five major megatrends shaping global economic, technological, and social development, bringing together international experts to explore how these forces will influence societies and industries in the decades ahead.
Organized by the Russia National Centre in partnership with the Centre for Cross-Industry Expertise “The Third Rome” and supported by the Presidential Executive Office, the forum brought together experts from around the world to discuss economic, technological, and social transformations.
Maksim Oreshkin, Deputy Head of the Russian Executive Administration for Global Trends, presented five key megatrends that, he said, are already shaping global development and will continue to influence the world in the coming decades.
“By 2026, Open Dialogue has become an international platform uniting experts from across the world to discuss the future of the planet, the global economy, and society,” Oreshkin said. “Understanding these processes is essential for preparing for change and leveraging it in the interests of nations and, above all, people. Today, I will focus on five key megatrends — while not treating artificial intelligence as a separate trend, because it has already become an integral part of our lives.”
1. A New Global Economic Paradigm: Globalisation 2.0
A shift from traditional globalisation to a more decentralised system was described. BRICS+ countries now play a growing role in the global economy, technological development, and demographic trends, while the Global South is increasingly engaging in direct trade and national-currency settlements.
“Globalisation hasn’t ended; it has changed,” Oreshkin said. “Sovereignty — at state, social, and economic levels — is now the key to competitiveness. Only countries that preserve all three levels can lead in a multipolar world.”
China, the USA, India, and Russia are identified as major global powers, while highlighting emerging growth centres such as Indonesia and “connector countries” like the United Arab Emirates. Digital platforms and decentralised networks are also becoming independent participants in the world economy.
2. Platformisation and Institutional Automation
The second megatrend highlights the rise of platforms and automation across all sectors. Platforms and algorithms are increasingly shaping decision-making in healthcare, education, finance, trade, and beyond.
“Platform solutions enhance efficiency and reduce transaction costs through self-adjusting algorithms,” Oreshkin said. “Countries without technological sovereignty risk becoming dependent on external platforms, which can have strategic consequences during conflicts.”
3. Transformation of the Global Financial System
It was noted that traditional financial models face mounting challenges, including rising public debt, widening inequality, and geopolitical fragmentation. Technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and digital platforms are creating alternative financial mechanisms, including decentralised finance.
“The traditional model of cross-border payments is under pressure. Decentralised systems and digital technologies are reshaping the financial system,” he said.
4. Demographic Shifts and Challenges
The fourth megatrend concerns global population dynamics. Global fertility rates have fallen sharply, with some countries facing critical declines. By the end of the 21st century, the working-age population may shrink significantly, while the proportion of elderly people rises, placing pressure on pension systems and social services.
“Even in Africa, the ratio of elderly to working-age population will rise to 30%, and globally to 56%,” Oreshkin explained. “Education demand will decrease, but healthcare and social service needs will grow. These interconnected trends will amplify each other.”
5. Human Capital Development in the Technological Era
The final megatrend focuses on human capital in a rapidly changing technological environment.
Autonomous systems, digital platforms, and artificial intelligence are transforming education, work, and healthcare, while biotechnologies expand human capabilities.
“AI is both a challenge and an opportunity,” Oreshkin said. “It allows personalized learning paths and supports teachers.
Professions are changing: mid-level specialists will be in demand, and companies must retrain employees from junior positions. The social sphere will also evolve, ensuring active longevity in the new demographic era.”
Global Perspective
Throughout the presentation, Oreshkin illustrated each trend with real-life examples from different continents: a manager from Asia, a farmer from Africa, and a homemaker from Eastern Europe. He highlighted that innovations in Africa could improve education and healthcare, Eastern Europe may see rising living standards and more efficient social systems, and Asia will require reskilling to meet changing labor demands.
“The world has entered a period of significant change in finance, demography, and other spheres. States, companies, and individuals must be prepared. Those who understand and adapt will shape the future,” Oreshkin concluded.
Open Dialogue on Air
This year, Open Dialogue introduced a podcast format — Open Dialogue on Air — featuring global experts discussing key trends in international development. Participants include award-winning Chinese sci-fi writer Chen Qiufan, Dr. Selina Neri of the Future Readiness Academy, Dr. Rais Hussin of EMIR Research (Malaysia), Prof. Wang Feng of UC Irvine, and global strategist Dr. Parag Khanna.
First held in April 2025 at the Russia National Centre, the Open Dialogue brought together over 3,000 experts from dozens of countries. By presidential decree, it will now be held annually.
