MEET48 Makes Its Debut at the Hong Kong Web3 Carnival: Keynote Speech at the Main Venue + Side Event “Entertainment RWA Night” to Explore New Paradigms of AI and Entertainment Together

From April 20 to April 23, as the Diamond Sponsor of Hong Kong Web3 Festival—the premier crypto event in Asia—MEET48, the world’s first idol-fan economy ecosystem built on a Web3 foundation and deeply integrating AI and UGC, made a comprehensive debut with its cutting-edge AI+Web3 entertainment ecosystem. Not only did MEET48 deliver a strategic keynote speech at the main venue, but it also co-hosted the Side Event “Entertainment RWA Night” with multiple partners, emerging as one of the key highlights of this year’s festival within the entertainment track.

Throughout the exhibition, the MEET48 booth remained open, attracting numerous industry participants and users for interactive exchanges.

Main Venue Keynote: How AI and Crypto Are Reshaping the Fundamental Logic of the Entertainment Industry

On the morning of April 21, Kai Xu, COO of MEET48, delivered a keynote speech at the main venue, systematically outlining the structural transformation currently underway in the entertainment industry amid the convergence of AI and Web3.

The speech highlighted that over the past year, MEET48 has evolved from real-world idols by leveraging AI technologies to build AI Agents capable of continuous learning—transforming idols from singular stage performers into “digital identities” that can interact with fans in real time across time and space. This evolution transcends physical limitations and establishes idols as sustainable virtual IPs. Building upon this foundation, MEET48 further introduced on-chain mechanisms to construct a Web3-based idol competition system, empowering fans to transition from passive supporters into on-chain participants who can directly influence idols’ development paths—advancing fan economies toward a “participation-as-governance” model.

As AI technologies deepen, MEET48 proposes shifting from “digital extensions of real idols” to “AI-native virtual idols.” These AI idols are no longer mere virtual avatars but self-evolving, scalable content-generation and interaction systems—marking the entertainment industry’s entry into an AI-Native era. Concurrently, MEET48 introduces the core paradigm of “AIUGC (AI User-Generated Content),” driving content creation from centralized production toward mass co-creation, transforming fans from mere content consumers into co-architects of narrative.

To support this ecosystem, MEET48 is building POCHAIN—the underlying infrastructure designed specifically to meet creators’ high-frequency interaction and collaboration needs. POCHAIN comprehensively supports Agent integration, coordination, and scalability, enabling automated content production and value distribution while facilitating the tokenization of content assets—providing the foundational infrastructure for large-scale AI-powered entertainment ecosystems.

Through MEET48’s exploration, future entertainment will no longer be passive consumption but rather a collaborative system jointly built by AI, creators, and communities.

Side Event Highlights: “Entertainment RWA Night” Explores New Opportunities in Assetization

Beyond the main venue, on the evening of April 20, MEET48 co-hosted the Side Event “Entertainment RWA Night” with Hash Global and Nine Lives Community. The event brought together projects including POCHAIN, OLAXBT, TATTO, IPDEX, and Renaiss to collectively explore emerging trends at the intersection of entertainment asset tokenization and Real World Assets (RWA). The vibrant on-site discussions made it one of the key networking venues for the RWA track during the Hong Kong Web3 Festival.
