From April 20 to April 23, as a Diamond Sponsor of Asia’s premier crypto event—the Hong Kong Web3 Festival—MEET48, the world’s first idol fan economy ecosystem built on a Web3-native architecture and deeply integrating AI with UGC, made a comprehensive appearance with its cutting-edge AI + Web3 entertainment ecosystem. The project not only delivered a strategic keynote speech on the main stage, but also co-hosted the Side Event “Entertainment RWA Night” with multiple partners, becoming one of the key highlights in the entertainment track of this year’s conference.
During the exhibition, the MEET48 booth remained open throughout, attracting numerous industry participants and users for interaction and exchange.
Main Stage Keynote: AI and Crypto Reshaping the Fundamental Logic of the Entertainment Industry
On the morning of April 21, MEET48 COO Kai Xu delivered a keynote speech on the main stage, systematically elaborating on the structural transformation the entertainment industry is undergoing amid the convergence of AI and Web3.
The speech highlighted that over the past year, MEET48 has started from real-world idols and leveraged AI technology to develop AI Agents with continuous learning capabilities, enabling idols to evolve from single-stage performers into “digital identities” capable of real-time interaction with fans across time and space. This breakthrough removes physical limitations and transforms idols into sustainable virtual IPs. Building on this foundation, MEET48 further introduced on-chain mechanisms to establish a Web3-based idol competition system, shifting fans from passive supporters to active on-chain participants who can directly influence the growth trajectories of idols, thereby advancing the fan economy toward a “participation-as-governance” model.
As AI technology continues to advance, MEET48 proposes a development path from “digital extensions of real idols” toward “AI-native virtual idols.” AI idols are no longer merely virtual representations, but content generation and interaction systems with continuous evolution capabilities and scalable engagement, marking the entertainment industry’s transition into a new AI-Native phase. At the same time, MEET48 introduces the core paradigm of “AIUGC (AI User Generated Content),” driving content production from centralized models toward mass co-creation, where fans are not only content consumers but also co-builders of narratives.
To support this system, MEET48 is building its underlying infrastructure, POCHAIN, focused on addressing creators’ high-frequency interaction and collaboration needs. It fully supports the integration, coordination, and scalability of Agents, enables the automation of content production and value distribution, and facilitates the on-chain assetization of content, providing the core foundation for a large-scale AI entertainment ecosystem.
Through MEET48’s exploration, the future of entertainment will no longer be about passive consumption, but a collaborative system co-built by AI, creators, and communities.
Side Event Highlights: “Entertainment RWA Night” Exploring New Opportunities in Assetization
Beyond the main stage, on the evening of April 20, MEET48 co-hosted the Side Event “Entertainment RWA Night” together with Hash Global and Jiuming Commune, bringing together multiple projects including POCHAIN, OLAXBT, TATTO, IPDEX, and Renaiss to explore emerging trends in on-chain entertainment assetization and the integration of RWA. The on-site discussions were vibrant, making it one of the key networking and exchange scenarios in the RWA track during the Hong Kong Web3 Festival.
