LATs in PlatON LAT is the native utility token that will capture the value around the trustless coordination of actors within the PlatON network. Settlement LATs are used as payment and settlement tokens to pay for online economic activities (e.g. trading services/assets, transferring tokens). Users are required to pay and settle transaction fees, service fees, fees for assets such as data or computing power, etc. Governance Give the holders a vote in how the network is run, where developers focus their efforts & when software upgrades should be implemented.

Applications and Ecology PlatON is working to apply the results of this established research area to new areas such as finance, medicine, smart cities, and IoT. AI Oracle Oracle in blockchain is a kind of middleware that connects the blockchain to external resources. Existing blockchain oracle still mainly collect data from other data sources and map them to smart contracts (e.g. price feed), or allow smart contracts to call external APIs to provide more functionality, but are still limited to external data acquisition interfaces. Due to the difficulty of AI…

Part 3: Technical Architecture PlatON does not implement the entire privacy-preserving AI technology stack, focusing on the combination of privacy-preserving computation and AI. The overall architecture is shown in Figure 7, followed by a detailed description of each module. Privacy-preserving AI Framework (Rosetta) Rosetta provides privacy-preserving solutions for artificial intelligence where developers do not need expertise in cryptography, federated learning, and trusted execution environments. Rosetta integrates mainstream privacy-preserving computation technologies, including cryptography, federated learning, and trusted execution environments, and provides libraries of privacy-preserving statistical analysis algorithms, privacy-preserving machine learning algorithms…

Abstract ② [ *aY ] In just the past 10 years society has witnessed the transition of analog to digital, and we are fast forward to a fully digital life. However, the data utilization rate is very low due to the high centralization of artificial intelligence, coupled with data abuse and privacy leakage. The value of data urgently needs to be intellectualized in order to be deposited and utilized, hence the growing call for a next-generation intelligent network known as web 3.0. PlatON brings blockchain, AI and privacy-preserving computation together to…

Background Due to the migration of the PlatON Dev Network nodes on September 1, 2021, however, the original release of Samurai had the PlatON Dev Network and Alaya Dev Network nodes configured using ip addresses, resulting in the PlatON Dev Network currently being unavailable in Samurai 8.1.0 and prior versions. Updates. Samurai version 8.1.1 will correct the way nodes are configured, with the following main changes. 1, PlatON Dev Network rpc address (https://devnetopenapi.platon.network/rpc). 2, PlatON Dev Network Faucet address (https://faucet.platon.network/faucet/?id=e5d32df10aee11ec911142010a667c03) 3, Alaya Dev Network rpc address (https://devnetopenapi.alaya.network/rpc). Installation Warm Prompt:…

PlatON Network The PlatON PIP-3 proposal was passed on 30 August 2021 at 14:50. Since the launch of the PIP-3 proposal ballot, the proposal finally received 179 yes votes and 0 no votes, representing 86.05% of the votes in favour of the upgrade, and we would like to thank all our node partners who participated in the ballot! The proposal focuses on upgrading PlatON’s underlying node network to improve the quality of network services. After the upgrade, the PlatON network will operate with version 1.1.0. If you have not done…

This article illustrates a P2P connection scheme under the group consensus. This design aims at the current evolution of the Giskard protocol into a group consensus. This issue is the first part. Background Driven by scaling, a new consensus mechanism called “group consensus” is introduced. Under this mechanism, all consensus nodes are divided into multiple groups, and then reach a consensus between groups after interaction within the group. Due to the huge number of consensus nodes after scaling, the original direct connection of all consensus nodes is no longer applicable….

Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP), was proposed by S. Goldwasser, S. Micali, and C. Rackoff in the early 1980s. It refers to the ability of a prover to convince a verifier that an assertion is correct without providing any useful information to the verifier. Zero-knowledge proofs are now widely used in reality, especially in authentication protocols and digital signatures. This article will be divided into two parts to analyze the application of zero-knowledge proof technology in the blockchain. Introduction to ZKP Zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) is an important part of modern cryptography, which…

PlatON, the privacy-preserving AI network, is officially launching its first online hackathon on DoraHacks’ open source developer platform — Hackerlink on July 21, 2021. The event is designed to inspiring developers’ sparks, creating new value, demonstrating the power of technological advancement, as well as promoting more DApps development on PlatON and Alaya,building a thriving ecosystem. As PlatON’s pioneer network and testing field, Alaya will take the lead in testing all inspirations and attempts to verify the completeness of the basic functions of the network. This Hackathon, with bounty prizes offered by PlatON, will…

Since the launch of the AIP-17 proposal, the support rate has exceeded 92% as of today, and the proposal has now been approved with a high number of votes, with an expected effective date of August 2, 2021. The proposal focuses on the Alaya network optimization upgrade to version 0.16.0 to improve the quality of network services. Details of this update are as follows. Optimization features The node process name is modified from the original [platon] to [alaya], and the parameter — [alaya] no longer needs to be specified in…

Before we talk about the PlatON testing, we need to figure out the difference between blockchain testing and traditional Internet testing. That is mainly reflected in the blurring of the system boundary: the former is not only between the front-end API and a certain blockchain node but also among a large number of blockchain nodes. At the same time, it should be noted that the PlatON chain includes public chains and private chains that vary from each other in terms of management, user identity, the maximum number of nodes, etc….

In all these blockchain systems, decentralization essentially means that each individual could control his own asset by means of controlling the private key (or signing key) of digital signatures. A transaction (transfer of assets) is valid as long as the underlying…
