Platon Aims To Become The Public Infrastructute Of Privacy Computing To Open Up Business Prospects For The Crypto Space
In the Information Age, Data Becomes a New Factor of Productivity
In economics, factors of production, also known as production inputs, are essential resources for the production of goods and services. In his epochal work “Principles of Economics”, famous British economist Marshall put forward the theory of four factors of production — land, labor, capital and entrepreneurial talent. National income (NI) is the reward of four factors, and that is, national income (NI) = labor wage (w) + land rent (r) + capital interest (i) + operating profit (π). This “four-in-one formula” sums up the core of western economic production theory and distribution theory, which has been widely accepted for more than a century.
However, factors of production are a historical category that evolves with the development of economy and society. The birth and development of the Internet has changed the mode of production, life and consumption, and it promoted many important and profound changes, and played an increasingly important role in economic development, social life and national governance. The full exploitation and effective utilization of all kinds of data has raised production efficiency to an unprecedented level. Data has become an indispensable factor in economic activities and a new generation of production factors after land, energy, population and food.

Privacy Brings Data Dilemma and MPC Realizes Data Collaborative Computing
Nowadays, people have already extended their social activities to the network space. Every day, people contribute data continuously to the network space. A large amount of data is collected, calculated, analyzed, excavated and this goes beyond the original data level of information value.
However, because of the plain text nature of the data, the owner loses ownership of the data once the data is granted to others for use. Therefore, to ensure the privacy protection of data, a huge amount of data managed by enterprises cannot be exchanged and co-calculated with the data held by other enterprises, which is why a large number of data cannot generate value.
The emergence of privacy computing ends this dilemma. Yao Qizhi, a member of the Chinese National Academy of Sciences, proposed secure multi-party computing (MPC) in 1982. In a nutshell, participants have to enter information to calculate an agreed function. In addition to the accuracy of the calculations, they must also protect the privacy of each participant’s input data. Specifically, there are now n participants, each of whom, xi, is aware of the xi they entered, who together calculate a pre-agreed function f (x1 ,…, xn) = y. In this way, all participants will get the final y value, but they will not be able to know the specific data entered by the other participants. Thus, with local data not aggregated and privacy not divulged, each party can still achieve a common desired result by performing the operations of the given logic.
Privacy computing opens up huge business prospects for the digital world (Crypto Space)
Bitcoin’s pioneering combination of virtual currencies and peer-to-peer payment systems open the door to decentralization. With the introduction of intelligent contract function, Ethernet has greatly improved the scalability of blockchain, and all kinds of applications can be deployed on blockchain. Because of these characteristics, early public blockchain networks such as Bitcoin and Ethernet have been developed, attracting a large number of blockchain and encryption enthusiasts in the world, and many traditional institutions have been entering the area of blockchain, exploring various possibilities of decentralization.
The combination of privacy computing and blockchain is expected to put data ownership back in the hands of data producers, meaning that vast amounts of data can be counted without affecting privacy and ownership, so that the owners can profit and data can burst out with greater value. Therefore, the blockchain project based on privacy calculation is naturally suitable for the commercial practice in the fields of financial, medical, scientific research, government affairs, and logistics and so on.
“Operator” PlatON network for blockchain data
PlatON, the representative project of the combination of privacy computing and blockchain currently, is based on the basic attribute of blockchain and is supported by privacy computing network, and provides the next generation Internet infrastructure protocol with the core characteristics of “computing interoperation”. PlatON’s vision is to become the public infrastructure for privacy computing of the next generation, publishing privacy computing algorithms through contracts, and implementing MPC protocols with data providers and computing nodes for privacy protection requirements, so as to realize cooperative computing of data. PlatON, designed to price data flows, is all about computing and data, which is the most fundamental part of future human production. PlatON can achieve large-scale application landing and commercial scenario implementation:
For example:
I. Build a wider credit collection network. The public chain that provides private computing can provide user with customizable computing logic template and multi-party access mode, and in the case that the access party’s data does not need to be collected and shared, only the credit inquiry results are output to the demander, and the original data can be encrypted and stored in the blockchain system to meet all kinds of audit needs.
II. Supply chain financial infrastructure. The public chain of private computing is based on blockchain technology and cryptography algorithm, which can provide a platform solution for supply chain finance to digitally identify, process and transfer assets. Construct a new financial financing model of supply chain in which the information of the upstream and downstream enterprises can be shared symmetrically, the credit value of the core enterprises can be transmitted, the business tickets can be split and the risk can be controlled, and provide convenient data traceability for the supervision and enhance the service efficiency of the industry as a whole.
To build the public infrastructure for the digital age, PlatON continuously optimizes technology, iterates the underlying infrastructure, and breaks through the “impossible triangle” in terms of performance. “Impossible triangle” means that it is difficult to achieve both a good “decentralization” and a good “security” of the system in a blockchain and a high “transaction processing performance” at the same time. The most well-known blockchain projects in the industry are Bitcoin, Ethernet, and EOS. At present, using native Token transfer performance test method and EOS under the same testing conditions, PlatON has achieved a comprehensive performance leader in the quasi-real environment, and will continue to focus on the data field and accelerate the construction of data market.

Puerto Rico Opens First Caribbean Ideal Church of Scientology with facilities to contribute to social betterment
Brussels, Belgium, 26th Feb 2026 – A massive Sunday crowd convenes to honor the latest addition to the lively center of San Juan—a new Church of Scientology, located along Juan Ponce de Leon Avenue, among the city’s busiest thoroughfares.
New facility in downtown San Juan highlights interfaith cooperation, community programmes and humanitarian outreach as dignitaries mark a milestone for the island’s religious landscape
BRUSSELS / SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — 24 February 2026 — The Church of Scientology inaugurated its new Ideal Church of Scientology of Puerto Rico on Sunday, 22 February 2026, with a public Grand Opening celebration in downtown San Juan. It is the first Ideal Org in the Caribbean and a new community hub intended to support religious services alongside local social initiatives.
The new church is located along Avenida Juan Ponce de Leon in the Santurce area—an artery among San Juan’s busiest thoroughfares—and at 1208 Avenida Juan Ponce de Leon, San Juan, PR 00907.
As published by Scientology Today, the Grand Opening brought together parishioners, guests and local representatives for a ribbon-cutting and tours of the church’s facilities, including public-facing information areas and spaces intended for introductory services and community engagement.

Hector Ayala, Director, Police Athletic League, Puerto Rico Police Bureau.]
A public celebration with civic and interfaith participants
In remarks cited by the Church, Mr. David Miscavige, ecclesiastical leader of the Scientology religion, addressed the crowd and linked the opening to the island’s identity and civic pride: “Who can deny the magnetism of these waters surrounding your Isle of Enchantment,” “An island that moves to its own rhythm, an island that generates its own current—for the true power of Puerto Rico is her people. And just like your beloved coquí, you are unmistakable, you are indomitable, you are impossible to silence. And here stands the living proof: your new Ideal Church of Scientology of Puerto Rico!”
Local speakers highlighted collaboration between faith communities and public institutions. Mr. Anibal Heredia Burgos, San Juan’s Faith-Based Coordinator and an advisor to the city mayor, emphasized the building’s intended role for shared community aims: “Today we are gaining more than just a building, because here is a place where our communities can come and reach their full potential… With this new Church of Scientology now opening to the community, we are going to make Puerto Rico a model of interfaith and government partnership everywhere.”
Next guest speaker, Lt. Hector Ayala, a Puerto Rico Police Bureau veteran and Director of the Police Athletic League, referred to drug-prevention education and cooperation with Drug-Free World materials. 22 officers earned educator kits as Drug-Free World lecturers—presented as part of a prevention-through-information approach.
Facilities described as designed for both religious and community use
The San Juan report outlines the features typical of an “Ideal Org” in Scientology, describing such churches as facilities aimed at supporting the delivery of religious services for Scientologists and also function as a meeting ground for cooperative initiatives in the wider community.
Among the areas described is a Public Information Center offering “more than 1,000 films” introducing the beliefs and practices of Scientology, the life and legacy of founder L. Ron Hubbard, and Church-supported humanitarian and community outreach programmes. The site narrative also references spaces for introductory courses and seminars, evening and weekend services that provide an overview of Dianetics and Scientology principles and their application in daily life.
In keeping with the tradition described by the Church for its churches worldwide, the building includes an Office of L. Ron Hubbard, presented as a symbolic reminder of the Church’s alignment with Mr Hubbard’s writings and ideals.
Historical references connecting Puerto Rico and L. Ron Hubbard
The Church links the Puerto Rico opening to historical references regarding L. Ron Hubbard’s time on the island. It states that Mr Hubbard led what it describes as the first complete mineral survey of Puerto Rico under US jurisdiction in 1932–1933, a survey that served as a reference for decades. The Puerto Rico House of Representatives later recognized Mr Hubbard’s work, calling it “commendable and meritorious” and “serving the best interests” of Puerto Rico.
As read in the official website of the church Mr Hubbard worked with the Red Cross in hurricane relief before the survey began and conducted ethnological research on the island’s rural jíbaro culture during that period, presenting these as elements of humanitarian interest alongside scientific work.
A milestone in a broader international pattern, including Europe
The Puerto Rico opening is part of a broader pattern of Ideal Churches openings internationally. The Church lists major cities where Ideal Organizations have opened, including multiple European locations such as Brussels, Paris, Rome, Berlin, Hamburg, Stuttgart, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Basel, Madrid and others.
From a European perspective, that international footprint has often been described by Scientology representatives as a practical, community-facing complement to civic and human-rights frameworks—especially where education, prevention and volunteering contribute to social resilience.
Ivan Arjona, the Church of Scientology’s representative to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and UN, recently framed that approach in the context of civic responsibility and the daily practice of shared values: “Europe’s values become real when they are understood and practised in daily life… [people] are better equipped to act responsibly, resolve disputes lawfully, and protect dignity and freedom—both for themselves and for others.”
Applied to the Puerto Rico milestone, Arjona added that community institutions—religious and civil alike—tend to be most effective when they are transparent, open to dialogue, and focused on practical initiatives that strengthen dignity, responsibility, and cooperation across differences—principles that align with long-standing European priorities around civic participation and human rights.
The Church of Scientology, its churches, missions, groups and members are present across the European continent. “There is a continent-wide presence through more than 140 churches, missions and affiliated groups in at least all the 27 European nations, alongside thousands of community-based social betterment and reform initiatives focused on education, prevention and neighbourhood-level support, inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard” said Ivan Arjona.
Within Europe’s diverse national frameworks for religion, the Church’s recognitions continue to expand, with administrative and judicial authorities in Spain, Portugal, Sweden, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany Slovakia and others, as well as the European Court of Human Rights, having addressed and acknowledged Scientology communities as protected by the national and international provisions of Freedom of Religion or belief.
