东京, 2024年11月14日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 开展工业用贵金属业务的田中贵金属集团核心企业——田中贵金属工业株式会社（总公司：东京都中央区、执行总裁：田中 浩一朗）宣布成功开发出了世界首款可将晶粒径※2控制在纳米尺寸内的块体※3白金（铂、Pt）材料。普通金属块体的平均晶粒径最小约为10μm，但通过本新技术可以将平均晶粒径控制在纳米尺寸，从而能够制造出纯度为99.9%以上的高纯度白金材料，其硬度是普通白金材料的10倍，强度是4倍。众所周知，在含有贵金属的金属材料中，晶粒尺寸越小，各金属的性能就越高。近年来，在钢铁材料和有色金属中，通过强加工使其产生极大的塑性变形※5和形成再结晶组织，实现了晶粒径的纳米尺寸。金属材料通过强加工会出现短暂的加工硬化※6，但是对于高纯度的贵金属材料，在几个小时到几天内，构成晶粒的原子重新排列和新晶粒的成核与生长，会导致材料硬度明显降低（软化）的现象，因此通过强加工使晶粒细微化是非常困难的。此次，田中贵金属工业通过优化制造工艺，成功地将白金的晶粒径控制在纳米尺寸，同时实现了块体化。通过本技术制造的白金材料的硬度和强度相比普通白金也有很大的提高。这是因为在整个材料中存在高密度的小角度晶界、大角度晶界或错位等晶格缺陷，所以尽管是纯白金，但其特性与平时所熟知的白金的特性相去甚远。作为一种具有更高纯度的白金和更强性能的新材料，有望应用于电子工业和航空航天领域等广泛的行业。关于纳米晶粒的材料开发许多金属材料是多晶体，由小晶粒组成。将构成金属的晶粒细微化，可以改善材料的特性。晶粒越小，相对于整个材料出现晶界或错位等晶格缺陷的比例就越高。由于纳米级晶粒尺寸的材料，与通常我们所认识的金属材料相比，晶格缺陷的比例要大得多，所以会产生与传统材料大不相同的特殊物理性能和特性。（※1） 行业首款：截至2024年10月30日，本公司调查（摘自白金材料的块体相关的专利和论文调查）（※2） 晶粒、晶粒径：金属材料具有原子按正确规则排列的结构。将该结构中原子排列方向不同的各个区域称为晶粒，晶粒的尺寸称为晶粒径。（※3） 体相、块体：在物质内部而非在物质表面具有三维连接的原子块称为体相。具有体相结构的固体称为块体。（※4） EBSD：通过用电子束照射具有晶体结构的材料，并解析在材料表面产生的后向散射衍射，来调查材料的结晶信息（晶系、粒径、取向等）的方法。（※5） 塑性变形：在材料上施加外力而产生的变形中，即使消除外力后也不会恢复到原来的变形。（※6） 加工硬化：通过对金属施加应力，来积累塑性变形，使金属变硬的现象。（※7） Royal Pure Platinum：保持99.9%纯度的同时，硬度和强度比普通白金材料更高的田中贵金属工业原创材料。关于田中贵金属集团田中贵金属集团自1885 年（明治18年）创业以来，营业范围以贵金属为中心，并以此展开广泛活动。公司在日本国内拥有非常可观的贵金属交易量，长年以来不遗余力地进行工业用贵金属制品的制造和销售，以及提供作为宝石饰品及资产的贵金属商品。并且，作为贵金属相关的专家集团，日本国内外的各集团公司进行制造、销售以及技术一体化，携手合作提供产品及服务。2023年度（截至2023年12月)集团总营业额为6,111亿日元，拥有5,355名员工。产业事业全球网站https://www.tanaka.com.cn产品咨询表田中贵金属工业株式会社https://www.tanaka.com.cn/inquiries-on-industrial-products/新闻媒体咨询处田中控股株式会社https://www.tanaka.com.cn/inquiries-for-media/新闻稿: http://www.acnnewswire.com/docs/files/20241114_CH.pdf Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

SEATTLE, WA, Nov 12, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Spectral Capital (OTCQB: FCCN), FCCN Spectral Capital's Chairman, Sean Brehm shares insights into Spectral’s DQLDB and The Vogon Cloud. Spectral Capital Group a leading innovator in decentralized cloud technology and advanced quantum ledger solutions outlines its vision for Spectral’s Vogon DQLDB with Plato Data Intelligence's Bryan Feinberg.Bryan Feinberg: Sean, I saw your post on X about Vogon DQLDB and its potential to transform financial systems. You mentioned the importance of human identity at the heart of commercial and capital markets. Can you explain what drives this visionSean Michael Brehm: At the heart of every market transaction is human identity—the sum of each individual’s daily contributions to the commercial world. This goes beyond financial exchanges; it’s about our choices, our interactions, and our values reflected in the economy. Our Vogon DQLDB is built with this central idea: each person's activity—whether buying, selling, or investing—is a piece of a larger narrative. By indexing these contributions using MSCI’s GICS standards, we categorize each transaction into primary, secondary, and tertiary subindustries, which provides a transparent, honest representation of our roles in the market. This kind of system gives people credit for the economic impact they bring.Bryan Feinberg: So, if I understand correctly, Vogon DQLDB is like a giant record-keeper that recognizes each person’s economic actions—whether I buy coffee, invest, or sell a used phone—as meaningful contributions. It tags each action to specific industries, showing that each of us is part of the economic story. Does that mean we’d all have a role in the markets beyond just being consumers Am I understanding that right, SeanSean Michael Brehm: Each transaction you make isn’t just about the money; it’s about showing your unique place and contribution in the economy regardless if you are in Boston or Botswana. By tagging actions to sub industries, we’re essentially writing a story where every participant is an author, making the market more inclusive and giving a clear picture of everyone’s impact. You’re not just a consumer; you’re a contributor to the system’s transparency and stability. Today your data is sold to others that do that and you don’t get any of the credit. Moving forward you remain the custodian of your data, meaning you control how it’s accessed and used within the system.Bryan Feinberg: You mentioned that this indexing could make Vogon DQLDB a modern version of the Buttonwood Agreement, returning transparency to the markets. How does that transparency affect market stability and honestySean Michael Brehm: Our team is passionate about returning global markets to the transparency that the Buttonwood Agreement symbolized back in 1792. Back then, agreements were based on mutual accountability and a shared framework. By indexing each person’s contributions and categorizing transactions transparently, Vogon DQLDB restores a sense of trust. It shows how individual contributions make up the foundation of commercial and capital markets. This visibility helps create a more stable system, where people know their daily actions, large or small, are recorded and valued. It’s a fundamental shift back to the ethos of fair and open markets.Bryan Feinberg: This sounds like a fair trade simplification engine where people could see the full picture, with everyone’s contributions kept out in the open, so it’s clear how they matter. Would this make it harder for anyone to ‘game’ the systemSean Michael Brehm: It is all about fair trade and putting the human identity where it belongs: At the center of commercial and capital markets. Just like in the original Buttonwood Agreement, people would understand how their actions impact the system and trust that they’re being accounted for honestly. By making everything visible, we’re closing loopholes that might allow manipulations, making it easier for everyone to see the real, fair value of their contributions. Additionally, Vogon DQLDB employs advanced data encryption to protect individual data, so each person’s data is secure while remaining visible for regulatory and systemic oversight.Bryan Feinberg: Indexing transactions with the GICS standards is an innovative idea. Can you explain how this process works within DQLDBSean Michael Brehm: When someone makes a transaction, Vogon DQLDB automatically categorizes it according to MSCI’s GICS standards, tagging it to a primary, secondary, and tertiary subindustry. This indexing means that every action—sale, investment, or trade—gets transparently attributed within the market. DQLDB essentially creates a ledger transaction and a transparent, user-owned database organized as coalitions, where the impact of each transaction is visible and accountable. Individuals maintain custodianship over their data, meaning they can access, review, and even limit how this data is used in certain contexts. Their identity is protected by post quantum cryptography. This way, we see exactly where your human effort drives the market and how industries connect to individual and collective activity. It’s a level of granularity in understanding our economic footprint that’s never been possible before and because you remain anonymous, it drives the value of your data up further.Bryan Feinberg: If I buy something, the system tags that purchase based on what industry it falls into—like ‘Food and Drink’ if I buy lunch or ‘Tech’ if I buy a laptop. By tracking all my activities this way, DQLDB builds a clear picture of which industries are thriving or struggling based on my actions. Would it be like a mirror reflecting where I am putting all my money and timeSean Michael Brehm: It’s exactly that—a mirror reflecting our individual and collective choices that drive the economy. It provides an accurate picture of which industries matter most based on individual actions. Plus, it helps both individuals and businesses make informed choices by showing how their economic footprint interacts with market trends.Bryan Feinberg: You’ve talked about Vogon DQLDB supporting regulatory compliance. How does this focus on human identity and transaction visibility play out for financial oversightSean Michael Brehm: With Vogon DQLDB, regulators get a transparent, unbiased view of the market’s structure, right down to individual contributions. Each transaction reflects an identity within its industry, showing patterns that could reveal stability or potential risks. For example, if regulators notice a concentration of activity in specific sectors or a sudden shift in consumer behavior, they can respond proactively. This visibility helps create honest markets where contributions aren’t hidden or obscured but instead provide a stable foundation for economic oversight. We’re also in discussions with financial regulatory bodies to align our approach with industry standards, ensuring Vogon DQLDB can meet compliance requirements globally. It’s about building a fairer market system that operates with each participant's best interests in mind.Bryan Feinberg: The DQLDB essentially lets regulators ‘see’ the entire market more clearly—like a map that shows where all the action is happening and helps them spot risky trends early on. How does this make it easier to keep the market stable and safe for everyoneSean Michael Brehm: Now, with the Vogon DQLDB, regulators have a map to follow the action across sectors and industries in real time. They can react faster to shifts, and this creates a stable environment where everyone’s interests are protected. By enhancing transparency, we’re also limiting opportunities for shady practices to slip through the cracks.Bryan Feinberg: Your post also touched on high-frequency transactions. How does the Vogon DQLDB balance technical efficiency with personal, transparent data representationSean Michael Brehm: Vogon is designed for both speed and integrity. With our epoch-based structuring and VMerkelPairs, it handles high-frequency data while preserving each transaction’s unique identity. Every data entry in the ledger-database is preserved with its industry attribution, creating a clear, real-time trail of our daily economic footprint. This is essential for creating an open, honest system where people see how their actions contribute to the broader economy. Vogon DQLDB doesn’t just record transactions—it reflects them back as part of a shared economic narrative, helping people feel involved while also using energy-efficient processes that reduce its carbon footprint. This way, we support both high transaction speeds and environmental responsibility.Bryan Feinberg: So, the technology is fast enough to handle lots of transactions per second, but it doesn’t lose track of what each transaction actually represents. Is it fair to say that, even though the system processes everything at high speed, it still keeps a ‘personal touch’ by showing the meaning behind each transaction and keeping it secureSean Michael Brehm: Even though it’s fast, DQLDB is about showing how each one of your transactions—or organizational transactions—fits into the bigger picture. It does so security. Every action is recorded in a way that preserves its importance, so we see not just numbers but the real, human impact behind them and how businesses and governments use them responsibly.Bryan Feinberg: Hearing about this focus on human identity, how do you see Vogon DQLDB impacting financial interactions for everyday peopleSean Michael Brehm: At Spectral Capital, we believe it represents a shift from seeing markets as abstract entities to understanding them as a community of individual identities and choices. For the first time, people can see themselves in the market, with their transactions categorized transparently and their contributions valued. This return to transparency and inclusivity builds trust, making financial systems more accessible and relatable. Imagine a world where each person knows their economic role and sees their efforts contributing to market stability. We’re also launching pilot programs in the retail and banking sectors to illustrate this vision, making the market feel less distant and helping people see how their choices influence the system.Bryan Feinberg: I guess another way to look at this is that Vogon DQLDB will help people feel like they really matter in the financial system. Instead of the market being this distant, mysterious thing, we’d all see our own impact, and it would help us feel more involved.Sean Michael Brehm: Yes, don’t you think that the market should reflect each of us, not feel like a faceless machine Instead of your mobile phone data going to large institutions, it remains yours on the Vogon DQLDB brings and it brings your contributions front and center, making people feel connected and giving everyone a meaningful stake in a fair, stable financial future.Bryan Feinberg: Thank you, Sean. This vision of a human-centered market system is both powerful and timely. We look forward to seeing how Vogon DQLDB brings this vision to life.About FCCN Spectral Capital (OTCQB: FCCN)Based in Seattle, Washington, FCCN Spectral Capital is a leading innovator in decentralized cloud solutions, powered by advanced quantum ledger technology.

SINGAPORE, Nov 13, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Philippines' Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC) has announced at the Singapore FinTech Festival its strategic collaboration to pilot its Digital 2.0 Marketplace, which will define the future of digital distribution. Banks can follow a platform approach built around unbundling and re-assembling products and services through Open Platforms. RCBC will become the first bank in Southeast Asia to offer this platform. This groundbreaking marketplace will transform banking services by enabling real-time service creation through automation, providing significant benefits to customers and RCBC's global strategic partners."We aim to make banking and related services accessible to Filipinos worldwide, and our ongoing commitment to innovation will make this a reality. With APIwiz, we can manage and govern our Application Protocol Interface (APIs) in real-time and leverage composable APIs to comply, compete, and collaborate, allowing us to offer a wide range of unprecedented services that customers in this market have never experienced before through platform banking," shared Lito Villanueva, Executive Vice President and Chief Innovation & Inclusion Officer, RCBC.APIs serve as the essential connectors in modern banking while platform banking continues to evolve. Banks should prioritize deploying and integrating service meshes in the short term to facilitate interactions with legacy core banking systems. This approach acts as a gateway for external connections and speeds up integration by exposing well-defined APIs. Over time, banks are expected to transition to microservices-based core platforms, fostering a more scalable and flexible ecosystem."This transition will enable a true platform banking environment streamlining API integration and deployment, accelerating banks' transition to modern, microservices-based platforms for enhanced flexibility and scalability," shared John Alabastro, IT Shared Services Group Head & CTO, RCBC"APIwiz, an end-end API platform, allows enterprises to build, govern, and operate APIs effectively. APIs are the digital glue of modern banking; however, the number of APIs used in banking is growing exponentially, and an API platform is needed to simplify, standardize, centralize, and automate API delivery. Open banking helps create innovative business models. Using APIs, RCBC can transform itself from a business to a platform, multiplying value creation by enabling business ecosystems within and outside the enterprise," shared Darshan Shivashankar, Founder and CEO of APIwiz."Supporting the execution of this strategic partnership is Hungry Workhorse, a Manila-based services company specializing in digital and cultural transformation and a partner of APIwiz. "This collaboration places RCBC as a Filipino company at the forefront of innovation and digital experiences, demonstrating its strong commitment to empowering Filipinos on their financial journey and making it more accessible and easier, no matter where they are," according to Kay Calpo-Lugtu, COO of Hungry Workhorse.About Rizal Commercial Banking CorporationPart of the Yuchengco Group of Companies, Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC) is the fifth largest privately owned universal bank in the Philippines, with over Php1.3 trillion in total resources as of June 30, 2024. It is an affiliate of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Japan's second-largest bank.For over 60 years, RCBC has been building a reputation for providing the best customer experience, award-winning digital banking services, and pioneering innovations. Euromoney and Asia Money have recognized it as the Philippines' Best Bank for Digital for five straight years (202020-2024).
