PlatON, initiated and driven by the LatticeX Foundation, is a next-generation Internet infrastructure protocol based on the fundamental properties of blockchain and supported by the privacy-preserving computation network, with “computing interoperability” as its core feature. By building a computing system assembled by Verifiable Computing, Secure Multi-Party Computing, Zero-Knowledge Proof, Homomorphic Encryption, and other cryptographic algorithms and blockchain technology, PlatON provides a public infrastructure in open-source architecture for global artificial intelligence, distributed application developers, data providers, and various organizations, communities, and individuals with computing needs.
