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.

SAP Fioneer Launches Cloud Accounting Subledger to Simplify Multi-GAAP Accounting for Financial Institutions

Published

on

Walldorf, Germany, July 30th, 2026, FinanceWire

SAP Fioneer, a leading provider of software solutions for financial services, today announced the launch of its Cloud Accounting Subledger (CAS), a cloud-based solution designed to help financial institutions manage complex accounting requirements and modernize finance operations. 

As financial institutions continue to advance their cloud transformation strategies, many finance organizations remain challenged by fragmented accounting landscapes and increasing regulatory complexity. Multiple accounting systems, disparate processes, and parallel reporting requirements across entities and accounting standards often result in significant reconciliation effort, limited transparency, and higher operational costs. 

“Financial institutions across North America have already made significant progress in cloud adoption, with the vast majority investing heavily in cloud-based architectures. At the same time, many core finance and accounting processes remain fragmented and difficult to modernize,” said Sascha Maric, Managing Director at SAP Fioneer USA. “With Cloud Accounting Subledger, we help institutions address this challenge by providing a unified foundation for managing complex, multi-GAAP accounting in the cloud.” 

SAP Fioneer’s Cloud Accounting Subledger enables financial institutions to manage accounting standards such as IFRS and US GAAP within a single, unified subledger. Purpose-built for AI and by consolidating accounting processes in one environment, the solution helps reduce reconciliation complexity while improving transparency, consistency and auditability across finance and reporting functions. 

Built for SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud, Cloud Accounting Subledger applies a consistent, rule-based accounting approach across portfolios, products and legal entities. This creates a single source of truth for finance, risk and reporting, while enabling closer integration between accounting processes and core finance operations. 

“The launch of Cloud Accounting Subledger marks an important step in the continued expansion of SAP Fioneer’s public cloud portfolio for financial services,” said Frank Hammann, Co-CEO Finance at SAP Fioneer. “By bringing multi-GAAP accounting into a single, SAP-native environment, we help financial institutions to reduce operational complexity and establish a scalable foundation for modern finance operations.”

Mercury Publishes Global Cold Chain Logistics Performance Benchmarks

Published

on

Mercury publishes global cold chain logistics performance benchmarks for healthcare and life sciences shippers, covering transit times, reach, and reliability.

Boston, MA, 30th Jul 2026 – Mercury Business Services, a specialty logistics provider serving the healthcare and life sciences sector since 1984, today released performance benchmarks from its cold chain and parcel operations, reporting a 99.6% success rate on temperature-controlled shipments and a median cold chain transit time of 2.77 days.

The company also reported that customers using the Mercury Portal — its booking, tracking, and proactive monitoring platform — experienced a 39.7% reduction in parcel incidents compared to shipments managed outside the platform.

For laboratories, clinical trial sponsors, and diagnostics companies, a single compromised shipment can mean lost patient samples, delayed study timelines, and irreplaceable research material. Biological specimens, cell and gene therapy products, and diagnostic kits often have narrow stability windows and no second chance at collection.

Benchmark Highlights

  • 99.6% successful cold chain shipments
  • 2.77 days median cold chain transit time
  • 39.7% reduction in parcel incidents for Mercury Portal users
  • 236+ countries and territories served
  • 1,500+ customers served since 2020
  • 40+ years of continuous operation

Mercury attributes the results to a combination of proactive shipment monitoring, healthcare-specific customs brokerage that anticipates country-level documentation requirements before goods move, and 24/7 support teams assigned to individual accounts.

The company’s services span specialty cold chain, discounted parcel, same-day and onboard courier, next flight out, air freight and charter, GMP warehousing and controlled room temperature storage, and customs brokerage. Mercury supports biological specimens, clinical trial materials, pre-clinical research, diagnostic testing kits, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and regulated documents and records.

Glasgow Law Firm Reports Increase in Divorce and Separation Enquiries

Published

on

Simplicity Legal has recorded a rise in divorce and separation enquiries in the weeks since Scotland supporters returned from the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The increase is based on the firm’s own enquiry data, and the firm notes that most enquiries do not lead to divorce proceedings.

Glasgow, United Kingdom, 30th Jul 2026 – Simplicity Legal, a law firm based in Glasgow, has recorded an increase in divorce and separation enquiries during July 2026. The increase is based on the firm’s own enquiry data and is measured against the enquiry levels the firm would normally expect at this time of year. The firm has not identified a single cause for the rise, and notes that enquiry volumes fluctuate throughout the year.

The period covered by the data follows the return of Scotland supporters from the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States. Scotland qualified for the tournament for the first time since 1998. The team played two of its three group matches at Gillette Stadium near Boston, and a third-place finish in Group C was not enough to reach the knockout rounds. Thousands of Scotland supporters travelled to the United States for the group stage in June.

Billy Smith, director at Simplicity Legal, said: “Our enquiry data shows a clear increase in divorce and separation enquiries in recent weeks compared with what we would normally expect during the summer. We are not in a position to attribute the increase to any single cause. Family law firms are used to enquiry levels changing through the year, and January, following the Christmas period, is the best-known example of a seasonal rise.”

He added: “It is worth saying clearly that an enquiry is not a divorce. Most people who contact us at this stage are simply looking for information, and a great many of them never take matters any further. Our advice is always the same. Talk to each other first, and if you want to understand where you stand, seek advice before making any decisions. In Scotland, the rules on finances, property and cohabitation are not always what people assume, and good advice early on saves a great deal of stress later.”

Simplicity Legal offers an initial consultation for anyone seeking advice on separation, divorce or other family law matters. The firm does not provide legal aid.
