On June 10, MEET48, the world’s first Web3.0 entertainment-focused AI-Agent and AIUGC-driven creator and fan economy ecosystem community, announced it will officially launch its TGE on June 11, 2025. Its official token IDOL will simultaneously list on Binance Wallet, Bitget, Gate, MEXC, and PancakeSwap, adopting the concept of disrupting Web3 through entertainment and ushering in a new era of Web3 entertainment driven by idol development and fan economies.
Currently, Binance Wallet, in collaboration with PancakeSwap, has officially confirmed that MEET48 will conduct an exclusive TGE on Binance on June 11, 2025, between 4 PM and 6 PM (UTC+8), requiring eligible users to use Binance Alpha Points for participation. Bitget, Gate, and MEXC are scheduled to list the IDOL token on June 11, 2025, at 8 PM (UTC+8).
MEET48 currently boasts 3.8 million active users worldwide and 500,000 Web3 wallets. It has repeatedly topped the list of social applications on the BNB Chain with its billion-level on-chain interactions. Using the TGE as a starting point, MEET48 will gradually roll out a series of heavyweight AI entertainment products and services, continually strengthening and enhancing the inherent value and market standing of the IDOL token. The project aims to become the mainstream token in the Web3 application industry, directly addressing the industry's pain point of "IEOs being short-lived highs" and offering investors substantial long-term value returns.
Previously, during various Web3 events in 2024 and 2025, whether in Hong Kong, Tokyo, Bangkok, or Singapore, MEET48 stood out with its unique interactive formats and captivating stage performances, drawing audiences from around the globe. For instance, during TOKEN2049, MEET48 hosted the Side Event "Back To The Streets" party, where idols engaged with global fans through face-to-face interactions and handshakes, deepening the emotional connections between them.
Additionally, MEET48 has announced token round financing led by Liang Xinjun, co-founder of Fosun Group, along with institutional and individual backers such as Hash Global, HashKey Capital, and Animoca. The FDV valuation stands at $100 million. Post-TGE, MEET48 is set to unveil breakthrough progress from this funding round, further advancing its vision of disrupting Web3 through entertainment and positioning MEET48 for greater creative possibilities on the BNB Chain moving forward.
MEET48 launched the IDOL Airdrop Program on June 9, targeting all users engaging with the MEET48 ecosystem, partner communities, special contributors, Mars Protocol active users, the top three winners of "The Mars Audition for Best3 AI-MEME," and ecosystem NFT holders. The first claim for IDOL tokens will be available immediately after the TGE (Token Generation Event) and can be used to participate in the 1st Web3.0 All-Community Annual Idol Popularity Audition & Ceremony (WIPA) voting. Reportedly, WIPA is a pioneering attempt to integrate blockchain mechanisms into the idol selection framework on a global scale. It is being co-hosted by MEET48 and the renowned Chinese youth girl group SNH48 GROUP as part of a global strategic partnership. The event will be held on August 2 at the AsiaWorld-Expo Arena in Hong Kong, China. All SNH48 GROUP members, along with their overseas AI-Agent virtual groups, will participate in this overseas WIPA Grand Finale, striving for excellent results to secure resources for overseas expansion and advancements in the Web3 space.
2025 Q3 Roadmap—Mars Protocol, AIdol Producer, and AI-Audition
Apart from WIPA, MEET48 will deliver more product plans per the previously disclosed ecosystem roadmap. In Q3 2025, MEET48 will continue to develop the Mars Protocol, a BSC (Binance Smart Chain)-based AI-Agent and social gamification token launch platform. AIdol Producer will offer users a one-click tool to customize virtual idols, aka AI Idol-Agents, equipped with autonomous interactive capabilities. These idols can perform a variety of functions, such as chatting, livestreaming, and virtual performances, while leveraging advanced AIGC (Artificial Intelligence-Generated Content) technology in the vertical field of virtual music and dance to create AI-based text, songs, and dance content efficiently.
Meanwhile, the MEET48 community is making a groundbreaking injection with the globally iconic gaming IP "Audition" into its next-generation AI+Web3 upgraded product "AI-Audition"—a Web3 next-gen virtual music and dance ecosystem AI-simulated play-to-earn game. Audition is a legendary dance simulation online game with over 1 billion users worldwide and historical cumulative total revenue of over $10 billion. The AI-Audition project is planned and developed by the original Audition team and deeply integrated with the MEET48 community. It directly uses IDOL as the main in-game currency, built on the Web3 framework with idol cultivation and fan economy concepts. As the world's first large-scale community game that combines virtual music and dance with LLM and AI-Agent technologies to create a next-generation virtual music-dance AIUGC ecosystem, AI-Audition will achieve a triad integration under the Web3 consensus: a music-dance AIUGC creator ecosystem, a virtual idol and group cultivation ecosystem, and a dance simulation gaming ecosystem.
As the pillar of ecological content within the MEET48 community, AI-Audition represents the largest introduction of a classic gaming IP into the history of AI entertainment and GameFi. With over 3 years of development, the project has seen more than $100 million USD invested and involves a development team of over 500 people. AI-Audition is slated for public release and limited user testing in Q3 of 2025, and it is set to create an unprecedented global industrial landmark for the AI and Web3 domains.
2025 Q4 Roadmap—CoinFishing and MonopoliFi
By Q4 of 2025, MEET48 will offer users additional game projects that use the same governance token for community incentives and governance purposes. Among these, CoinFishing introduces an innovative 3D-upgraded P2E model for classic fishing games by combining a decentralized drop rate mechanism with a market-driven Swap liquidity pool, ensuring a fair entertainment experience with zero human interference. On the other hand, MonopoliFi is an innovative GameFi that melds open-world gameplay with a city UGC mechanism, enabling users to deeply integrate in-game and real-world economies through mission mining, city-building with an editor, and on-chain transactions.
2026 Q1 Roadmap——AI-Audition (AI Dance Revolution), Decentralized AI-Agent Graphical Social Platform and Metaverse
In Q1 2026, the next-generation Web3 virtual music and dance ecosystem AI-Audition (AI Dance Revolution) will launch open beta testing and begin commercial operations. MEET48 will also prioritize the development of a decentralized AI-Agent graphical social platform and the MEET48 Metaverse. Leveraging the philosophy of value growth driven by UGC content creation and popularity tokenomics, MEET48 will collaborate with users to co-create a robust Web3 + AI-powered entertainment infrastructure, collectively leading the future of idol cultivation and fan economy.
MEET48 is the world's first AI-Agent and AIUGC fan economy ecosystem community focused on the entertainment industry. It is regarded as one of the largest Web3 application project teams globally, backed by a 500-person strong technical and R&D team. Its regional operation network spans Singapore, Hong Kong, Taipei, Tokyo, Seoul, and Dubai. MEET48 aims to achieve large-scale mass adoption of Web3 technology through its AIUGC content ecosystem, focusing on AIGC (Animation, IDOL, GAME, and Comics) for Gen Z entertainment trends, as well as its graphical and intelligent metaverse social platform.
