Platon: To create a new digital civilization by Protecting CryptoArts

Published

on

CryptoArts, a new favorite in the digital age

Recently, a NFT painting of digital artist Beeple was sold for $69.34 million, setting a record price for cryptoart. Earlier, Dorsey, the CEO of twitter, transferred his first tweet as a NFT, with the price of about $2.9 million. The birth of these high-priced works of art has pushed the cryptoart into the artistic field,which has been changing people’s traditional cognition and empirical judgement of art. So what is NFT? Is NFT valuable?

NFT (non-homogeneous token) is also a kind of cryptocurrency asset, which relying on the blockchain network behind it. The holding information of these assets can be recorded in the blockchain. Different from bitcoin and Ethereum, each NFT is unique, so it is not for exchange, like basic commodity purchase or other basic transactions money. However, because of that NFT assets can’t be copied, works of art or collections can be transferred on the blockchain network as the unique cryptocurrency asset. For example, if you successfully register as a password artist on the NFT trading platform, your uploaded works of art can also become a NFT asset. The process of becoming a NFT can be regarded as “coinage”, and then by aggregating into blocks to become the unique token asset on the blockchain.

All along, the biggest attribute of art is uniqueness and irreplaceable, which coincides with the essence of NFT. In the traditional art market, artworks are repeatedly sold at high prices, which is unmatched by any other industry. At present, cryptoart is the most powerful growth area in the digital collection market.

Perfect combination of encryption technology and artistic value

Although NFT assets are unique and irreplaceable, and can exist in different forms and contents, their essence is still token. Token itself has no intrinsic value. Only when it is placed on the value system of the real world, can it be endowed with specific meanings.

When we buy a NFT, it actually means that we buy a “digital certificate” representing the ownership and authenticity, that is, we get a unique password generated by blockchain technology. For example, if you buy a painting in the art field, what others see is only a copy of the digital picture, while the buyer has the only original copy of the whole network. This work has been authenticated by blockchain technology, and has a digital signature that cannot be copied, so that buyers can confirm the uniqueness of their collection. The underlying logic is the consensus mechanism based on the network computing power of blockchain. For the cryptoart, this network flow based consensus is important. Through effective mechanisms to improve consensus, let more people know about the works, and by exposure and auction, or artists’ appearance on public media, can achieve “value-capture”, thus increasing the collection value and transaction price of works.

In this process, encryption and privacy protection technology play a key role. For a cryptoart, the owner should have both the ownership and the right to use. Currently, we only protects the ownership, but fails to protect the right to use. If the owner of a work puts a cryptoart on display in the gallery, the owner can get a share of the income from the exhibition, and only with the authorization of the owner, can the art work be fully displayed. Only in this way can the right to use of cryptoart be more effectively protected, which is what PlatOn’s privacy computing has been working for.

The privacy token contract of PlatOn can achieve the purpose of hiding identity through zero knowledge proof algorithm. Zero knowledge proof is to make the verifier believe that one has some knowledge or ability without providing any useful information to others, so as to protect the cryptoart. In addition, digital assets need to be taxed in the future, which also involves the trade of ownership. Token’s Rosetta privacy AI framework improves the efficiency of MPC (multi-party secure computing) and provides strong support for digital asset trading.

Platon’s Alaya scheme, Protecting the cryptoart

As a global blockchain leader, PlatOn, with its rich experience in the field of privacy protection, can help the digital identification and asset digitization of traditional works of art and even real estate, and help traditional assets become indelible and unchangeable . PlatOn launched the meta network Alaya scheme on October 24 last year. The scheme is based on distributed storage system, with globally distributed nodes, and is linked in the form of NFT. It supports the subsequent change of ownership of digital assets through cooperative transfer, so as to protect cryptoart and built a new digital civilization.

In addition, in the main network release of PlatOn is launched in last month, NFT transfer is also used for voting on the chain, and NFT badges in the main network community will be sent to all voting participants. It can be seen that PlatOn’s exploration on NFT privacy protection has been in the field including the cryptoart, community souvenirs, voting and so on, which will light the dawn of new digital civilization.

The Blue Line: A CGTN Documentary on UN Peace Missions

Published

on

The Blue Line runs 120 kilometers across southern Lebanon. It is not a border, but a fragile withdrawal line, where peacekeepers once stood, and where some fell.

In July 2006, four unarmed UN observers lost their lives there. One was Chinese Major Du Zhaoyu. To this day, his mother says her son is “on duty” to deal with her grief.

Irish Commandant Pat Dillon, then with Team Sierra, created a video to honor his fallen colleagues. He had been evacuated just before the fateful day. “We feel cheated that you were taken from us so young.”

Lebanese interpreter Majid Monzer also worked with Du. “Many times we thought perhaps today was our last day, but we kept going because we love peace. This vest showed we belonged to UNTSO. But sadly, it didn’t save every life.”

In November 2024, just four days before a ceasefire, an airstrike struck Majid’s village. He lost his wife and his right leg was injured.

Two decades on, Du inspires a new generation. Xue Guiqing is a Chinese military observer now stationed in the same area along the Blue Line. “When I saw his smiling face in a photo, it felt as if he were looking at me. In that moment, I felt a sense of legacy, responsibility, and conviction.”

Her team leader, Norwegian Captain Yorgen Paul Lycle, believes peace remains elusive because the world fails to invest enough in it.

That issue looms large today. In August 2025, the UN Security Council voted to end the mandate of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) by 2026. But UNIFIL Force Commander Aroldo Lázaro Sáenz insists the role of peacekeepers is still vital. “We made the decision to remain even during the height of the  conflict, because this was the right thing to do. This is our duty.”

Resources are limited; mandates are constrained. Yet many argue peacekeeping remains indispensable. As South Africa’s Defence Minister Matsie Angelina Motshekga says, “It’s a very costly exercise, budgets are very low—but war is even more costly.”

The Blue Line is grim reminder of where lives were lost and where others still serve. In a time of doubt, the world must ask: Can peacekeeping remain the best tool we have to defend the dignity of peace?

Short Review: What is the Caliber of the “Golden Panda”?

Published

on

In September in Chengdu, the 2nd Golden Panda Awards arrived as scheduled.

A total of 27 awards across four categories—film, TV drama, documentary, and animation—plus the Special Jury Awards, will be announced in this “Land of Abundance”. Works and creators from diverse cultures and styles once again allow the world to witness the charm and potential of images as a “language of empathy”.

As an international film and television cultural award that takes audio-visual works as its carrier, the giant panda as its cultural symbol, and the promotion of building a community with a shared future for mankind as its purpose, what is the caliber of the Golden Panda Awards?

Since the first international film festival in the world—the Venice International Film Festival—was held in 1932, nearly a hundred years have seen the emergence of thousands of film festivals worldwide. Whether it is Cannes in France, Berlin in Germany, Toronto in Canada, or Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong in China, each distinctive film festival is not merely a showcase for the latest cutting-edge achievements of the film industry; it is also a grand feast for the exchange of human light and shadow art.

Different from world-renowned international film festivals that focus more on artistic, commercial, and industrial exploration, the Golden Panda Awards has aimed to build a “golden bridge” for cultural exchange and mutual learning from the very beginning.

The Golden Panda Awards sets no barriers and makes no distinctions between genres, allowing different cultures to meet equally in the light and shadow. For this year’s awards, works from 126 countries and regions were submitted, totaling 5,343 entries—among which 3,910 were foreign works, accounting for 73.2%.

Jurors from all over the world, including Europe, North America, Oceania, and Southeast Asia, selected entries based on criteria such as consolidating the consensus on building a community with a shared future for mankind, promoting the common values of humanity, and reflecting the shared aesthetic pursuit of mankind, thus demonstrating the original aspiration of “appreciating the beauty of each to achieve the beauty of all”.

The number of participating countries and regions, the proportion of overseas works, and the diversified evaluation system all embody the core spirit of the Golden Panda Awards: “appreciating the beauty of all and living in harmony with differences”. This is evident from the nomination list—there are not only Hollywood blockbusters like Oppenheimer directed by Christopher Nolan, but also Snow Leopard by the late Chinese Tibetan director Pema Tseden; not only Nezha 2 (a work that went global from Sichuan), but also The Last Dance which broke the box office record of Chinese-language films in Hong Kong.

As Chen Kaige, Jury President of the 2nd Golden Panda Awards, put it: “Whether it is a poetic expression embodying Oriental aesthetics or a pioneering narrative exploring the digital age, as long as a work carries reflections on the destiny of all mankind, it deserves to be seen by the whole world.” This perfectly captures the essence of the awards.

Compared with film festivals that focus on the results of selection, the Golden Panda Awards places greater emphasis on the exchange process itself. For this year’s event, three supporting activities will be held in Chengdu: “Let’s Watch Movies Together”, “Panda Takes You to Look Around the World”, and “Face to Face with Pandas”.

“Face to Face with Pandas” will take place at the Chengdu Dujiangyan Panda Valley, which features an ecological setting of “semi-wild rearing environment” and “restored original habitat”, allowing guests from the East and West to experience the charm of giant pandas up close. The “WLet’s Watch Movies Together” screening event will show more than 150 films in 15 distinctive cinemas, 10 urban landmarks, and 5 well-known universities in Sichuan. Simultaneously, screenings will also be held in over 20,000 villages (communities), bringing movies truly into every household.

Notably, the Golden Panda Awards Ceremony will once again be held at the Tianfu International Conference Center by the Qinhuang Lake. One month ago, the 460-meter-long “Eaves of Tianfu” at the center witnessed athletes from 116 countries and regions around the world embark on a journey of transcending themselves and exchanging ideas at the World University Games. Now, this largest single wooden structure in Asia will witness how international film and television professionals build consensus through dialogue, enabling different cultures to meet, collide, and resonate in the light and shadow.

Chengdu has long been a hub for East-West exchange since ancient times. The Daci Temple was once the starting point of Monk Xuanzang’s journey to the West to seek Buddhist scriptures; the millennium-old Jinjiang River witnessed Marco Polo’s travels in the East; and today’s streets and lanes of Chengdu interpret the myriad scenes of Chinese modernization through their “comfortable and leisurely lifestyle” (referred to as “bashu life” in local dialect).

The Golden Panda Awards has chosen the giant panda—a symbol of friendship with global recognition—and endowed it with the special symbol of “gold”. When film and television professionals from various countries gather in Chengdu with their unique cultural imprints, the “caliber” of the Golden Panda is revealed in each exchange and mutual learning—it not only fosters the beauty of harmony in diversity between the East and the West, but also cherishes the precious connection of shared human hearts.

AgriFi Blockchain Farm: Where AI, IoT, and DeFi Grow the Future of Agriculture Finance

Published

on

Where Farmland Meets Blockchain, and Data Drives Yield: A New Blueprint for Sustainable AgriTech and Utility-Based Crypto Adoption

Estonia, 15th September 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, AgriFi, a decentralized platform merging agriculture with blockchain, AI, and IoT, has officially unveiled its comprehensive 7-layer system architecture, a modular and scalable blueprint designed to bring real-world utility to decentralized finance (DeFi). At the core of this innovation is the AGF Token, a digital asset backed by tokenized farmland and real agricultural productivity.

In an era where speculation-driven tokens dominate the crypto landscape, AgriFi stands out by anchoring digital finance in the soil; enabling verifiable, productive, and sustainable value creation through agriculture.

“The future of DeFi isn’t synthetic , it’s rooted. At AgriFi, we’re turning data into food, and farmland into yield-bearing assets that everyone can access,” said Veronica Trump, CMO of AgriFi.

A New Blueprint for Global Agriculture Finance

The agricultural industry, worth $12 trillion globally, has remained largely untouched by the innovation seen in other industries. AgriFi is fundamentally changing that by introducing a AGF token-powered economy and technical architecture that empowers farmers and investors alike.

“We are not just building another agricultural app or simple blockchain token,” said Veronica Trump, CMO at AgriFi. “We are creating a complete technology ecosystem that connects soil sensors in rural farms to investment portfolios in global financial centers. Every layer serves a critical function in transforming how agriculture operates and how the world invests in food production.”

Unlike inflationary DeFi tokens, AGF staking rewards are generated from real-world crop performance. With yields ranging from 5% to 18% APY across multiple staking durations, AGF delivers a sustainable income model aligned with agricultural cycles.

Whether you’re a farmer in Asia, an investor in Europe, or a stakeholder in global food systems, AgriFi enables active participation through a decentralized yet unified infrastructure.

But how does it actually work? Let’s examine the technical infrastructure that’s enabling farmers in rural areas to access global capital markets and allowing investors worldwide to own fractions of farmland through their smartphones.

Agrifi Technology Stack

Layer 1: Blockchain Infrastructure Foundation

The trust layer.Making Agricultural Investment Universal

At the foundation lies AgriFi’s blockchain infrastructure powered by Polygon Network, chosen for its ability to process thousands of agricultural transactions daily at minimal cost. This base layer ensures every farming decision, crop yield, and investment transaction is permanently recorded and globally accessible.

Why This Matters: Unlike traditional agricultural records that can be lost, manipulated, or are inaccessible across borders, blockchain creates an immutable foundation of truth for the entire global agricultural system.

Key Components:

  • Polygon Network: Lightning-fast, eco-friendly blockchain processing
  • High throughput & scalability for global agricultural operations
  • Low transaction costs for micro-investments and rural connectivity
  • Ethereum compatibility to tap into established DeFi tools
  • Validator network & performance metrics to ensure decentralization and speed
  • Interoperability to integrate with diverse protocols and ecosystems

This base layer digitizes trust, enabling transparent ownership of farmland, secure transactions, and real-world yield recording.

AgriFi’s choice of Polygon Network as its blockchain foundation isn’t accidental it’s strategic. Agricultural operations require thousands of daily transactions: staking rewards, profit distributions, IoT data recording, and farmland ownership transfers. Ethereum’s high gas fees would make these micro-transactions economically impossible.

Layer 2: Smart Contract Protocol Layer Automated Agricultural Finance

The automation layer. From crop insurance to investment distributions, everything happens automatically when predefined conditions are met.

Revolutionary Impact: A farmer experiencing drought can receive insurance payouts within hours instead of months, while investors automatically receive their share of harvest profits without any manual processing.

Core Protocols:

  • AGF Token Core: The backbone of the ecosystem, enabling staking, governance, and rewards.
  • Farmland Tokenization: Convert acres into fractionalized, tradable on-chain assets.
  • AgriFi Staking System: Stake AGF tokens and earn passive income yield tied to crop performance.
  • AgriFi Governance DAO: Token holders shape platform development and ESG policies.

These smart contracts are open-source, audited, and built for both scalability and security.

Staking System: Earning from Agricultural Productivity

 

Layer 3: AI & Machine Learning Engine Transforming Agricultural Data into Actionable Intelligence

The intelligence layer. Transforms farming from guesswork into precision science.

Game-Changing Capability: The AI can predict with remarkable accuracy whether a specific farm will be profitable next year, enabling smarter investment decisions and better farming practices.

AI-Powered Modules analyze, predict, and optimize agriculture in real-time:

  • AgriFi Yield Intelligence: Predicts harvest output based on weather, soil, and seed data.
  • AgriFi Risk Engine: Assesses climate, market, and operational risks in real-time
  • Farm-to-Market AI: Aligns planting with real-time demand and pricing trends.
  • AgriFi Decision Matrix: Recommends optimal farming actions across regions and crops.

This layer enables predictive finance, transforming yield forecasts into investment insights.

Layer 4: IoT Data Collection Network The Agricultural Nervous System

The sensing layer.

Thousands of connected sensors across global farmlands create an unprecedented real-time view of agricultural conditions. This layer transforms invisible farming processes into transparent, measurable data.

Breakthrough Innovation: For the first time, investors can monitor soil moisture, crop health, and weather conditions of their agricultural investments in real-time from anywhere in the world.

Comprehensive Monitoring A live stream of farm data is captured via:

  • AgriFi Soil Network: Real-time soil health and nutrient monitoring
  • AgriFi Weather Grid: Hyperlocal weather data and climate prediction
  • AgriFi Drone Fleet: Aerial crop surveillance and health assessment
  • AgriFi Satellite Data: Large-scale agricultural monitoring from space
  • Farm Equipment IoT: Operational data from tractors, irrigation systems, Machinery performance and maintenance optimization
  • AgriFi Supply Chain: Track input usage, harvest timing, and delivery logistics. The End-to-end logistics tracking

Every sensor becomes a yield oracle, turning farms into data-driven finance engines.

Layer 5: Data Management & Analytics Platform Agricultural Intelligence Hub

The processing layer.

This layer processes and stores the massive amounts of data generated by global agricultural operations, creating actionable insights that benefit both farmers and investors.

Unprecedented Transparency: Every stage of food production becomes visible and verifiable, from seed planting to final sale, creating trust and efficiency throughout the agricultural supply chain.

This backbone translates raw farm data into actionable intelligence:

  • Blockchain Database: Tamper-proof records of crop output and asset ownership.
  • IPFS Storage: Decentralized file storage for documents, certifications, and compliance.
  • Real-time Analytics: Live Dashboards for farmers, investors, and ecosystem partners.
  • Historical Data Indexing: Train AI models and conduct performance analysis. From ESG audits to staking returns, data powers every decision.

 

Layer 6: Security & Compliance Framework

Critical Protection: Agricultural investments often involve cross-border transactions and sensitive farming data, requiring enterprise-grade security that protects both financial assets and agricultural intellectual property.

The safeguard layer.

  • Authentication & Biometric Access: Role-based, secure login for all stakeholders.
  • Encryption & Privacy: End-to-end encryption across apps and nodes.
  • Regulatory Compliance: GDPR, agri-export norms, and crypto KYC integration.
  • Smart Insurance: Smart contracts tied to climate data provide instant crop coverage.

This layer builds global trust; ensuring compliance, transparency, and resilience.

Layer 7: User Interface & Experience Layer

The access layer.

The top layer makes sophisticated agricultural blockchain technology accessible to everyone from smallholder farmers in developing countries to institutional investors in major financial centers.

AgriFi prioritizes global usability with:

  • AgriFi Web Dashboard: Portfolio, staking, farm data, and governance tools.
  • AgriFi Mobile App: On-the-go insights for farmers and investors.
  • AgriFi API Gateway: For third-party DeFi, AgriTech, and ESG platforms.
  • Multilingual UI: Accessible across regions and literacy levels.

This layer democratizes DeFi,  ensuring that real farmers and global investors can use the same platform with ease.

“This isn’t just technological innovationit’s an urgent response to global food security challenges,” explained John Dembla, CTO. “Each layer of our architecture addresses specific barriers that have prevented agriculture from accessing the capital and technology it needs to feed the world.”

Industry Transformation Implications

The comprehensive nature of AgriFi’s 7-layer architecture positions it to transform multiple aspects of the agricultural industry:

Agricultural Finance: Streamlining lending, insurance, and investment processes Supply Chain Management: Providing end-to-end visibility and optimization Risk Management: Enabling predictive analytics and automated responses Global Trade: Facilitating cross-border agricultural transactions Sustainable Farming: Incentivizing environmentally beneficial practices
