MEET48: Different 'Top Idol' in the BSC ecosystem There's a big news today, MEET48， A decentralized entertainment platform standing at the forefront of the Binance BSC ecosystem has been invested by YZi Labs. @yzilabs @meet_48 You may ask, isn't there a daily new project on BSC now? But MEET48 is different. It doesn't do DEX or infrastructure, but directly enters the fan economy+virtual idol track, becoming one of the most recognizable projects in MVB's eighth issue. YZI Labs' strict selection is definitely different! To be honest, in the past two years, the BSC ecosystem has gradually shifted from "transaction is king" to "application flowering". Whether it's blockchain games, DePIN, or SocialFi, behind the diversity, there are actually very few projects that can truly run narrative and user growth. And MEET48 is an outlier that balances "narrative value" and "user engagement". From "chart topping" to "co creation": Web3 reconstruction of fan economy Traditional entertainment companies have turned "ranking" into a business, while fans are just harvested data. What MEET48 wants to do is to do the opposite—— Transforming every supporter's click, vote, and interaction into verifiable behavior on the chain, through IDOL tokens, fans can: Voting affects idol rankings • Obtain exclusive NFTs and offline/online privileges • Participate in virtual idol activities and concerts • Obtain a sense of "co creation equity" on the idol's growth path This is no longer a platform for fans to "chase stars", but a new entertainment system with a "fan partner mechanism". How did MEET48 come out? Many people may think that entertainment projects are just about creating visuals and cutting a few trailers? But the team configuration behind MEET48 is actually a dual core drive of "entertainment+blockchain". Wayne Zhang: Co founder, early Ethereum miner, familiar with the logic of building on chain ecosystems Ken Xu: Co founder and CEO, with over 15 years of experience in film and content production, knows how to create IP, emotions, and amplify fan economy • Yoshiyuki Oe：CFO， Former PwC strategic consultant, knowledgeable in operations and the pace of globalization implementation This combination can create an immersive content experience while also using on chain structures to support transparent, fair, and scalable mechanisms. It's not the kind of Web3 project that only knows how to draw cakes, nor is it the traditional company that does "entertainment shell" concept scraping. Why BSC? Why can I leave the circle? The selection of MEET48 in the eighth season of Most Valuable Builder (MVB) in Binance BSC ecosystem indicates that it is a key project supported by Binance official support. Don't underestimate this blessing, it means: • Obtain official Binance resources: traffic, technology, media placement Priority docking opportunities within the ecosystem: wallets, NFT markets, offline activities Launchpool • It is easier to connect global promotion links (especially in Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea markets) And this is exactly what MEET48 excels at—— They have established deep cooperation with many well-known idol IPs in Southeast Asia, Japan, and South Korea, covering over 30 million fans. They even plan to hold the Web3 Idol Performance and Voting Ceremony on August 2, 2025, in Hong Kong. This is not a 'web demo', it is an offline event that aims to integrate Web3 and entertainment in a practical way. Why did YZi Labs invest in it? Let's talk about YZi Labs. What are they from? We manage over $10 billion in assets globally and have invested in over 300 projects, making us a top tier Web3 investment institution. They are investing in MEET48 this round, in other words: What I value is the combination of this business model and user replicability The philosophy of YZi Labs is to first consider social impact, and then consider financial returns. MEET48 has precisely hit on a direction that is currently most likely to attract public attention - idol culture+participation economy+blockchain trust mechanism. This is not just about investing in a platform, but about investing in the possibility of a 'future entertainment paradigm'. Ultimately, fans nowadays are not the "leek type" anymore. What they want is authenticity, engagement, and influence. MEET48 represents not only a new application scenario, but also a template for how Web3 redefines "co creation" and "belonging". If you are also interested in the BSC ecosystem, you may want to pay more attention to this project. Nowadays, it is no longer the era of 'technology first', But rather: 'Who can tell a touching narrative and use on chain logic to run it through?'. MEET48， This is such a project. @cz_binance @heyibinance @BNBCHAIN @BNBCHAINZH
