At the "Crypto 2026: From Cryptocurrency to Smart Economy" themed forum held in Hong Kong, Dr. Daxue Wang, CFO of Lotus Technology Inc., delivered a keynote speech titled "Cryptocurrency Links to the Physical Industry, Smart Mobility on the Chain."Dr. Daxue Wang stated that smart mobility is the pioneering carrier of the smart economy. Lotus, as a luxury electric vehicle brand with a 78-year history, has been listed on NASDAQ and is actively exploring the deep integration of cryptocurrency technology with the physical industry. He proposed three major integration directions:First, safeguarding data value by utilizing the immutable nature of blockchain and privacy computing, allowing users to have absolute control over their personal data, achieving trustworthy data circulation and value flow. Second, releasing asset value by exploring the efficient circulation and fair trading of assets such as vehicle sales, brand value, intelligent driving technology patents, and global sales networks through RWA, while promoting trustworthy traceability of carbon assets in green mobility. Third, co-creating ecological value by recording data on driving, charging, maintenance, etc., through on-chain smart nodes, allowing users to upgrade from "car owners" to "participants in the brand ecosystem" through on-chain rights confirmation.Dr. Daxue Wang pointed out that the current challenges include compliance implementation, technology adaptation, and ecological co-construction, but the opportunities lie in open cooperation, promoting smart mobility as a practical landing scenario for the smart economy. Lotus hopes to work hand in hand with the cryptocurrency ecosystem to realize the vision of "from buying a Lotus car to sharing the growth value of Lotus technology."

At the "Crypto 2026: From Cryptocurrency to Smart Economy" themed forum held in Hong Kong, guests including KiteAI's Asia Pacific head Laughing, Sentient's Asia Pacific head Anita, Brevis content director Nic Tang, Mentis product head Jerry, and Predict.fun's Asia Pacific BD head Ah Huang Ricardo engaged in a roundtable discussion on the theme "AI × Crypto --- The Next Generation Digital Economy Foundation."Regarding whether the outbreak of open-source AI Agents (such as "raising lobsters") is a short-term sentiment or a long-term trend, Laughing believes this marks a paradigm shift of AI from "conversational" to "executive," signaling the beginning of a long-term trend. However, Agents lack a physical identity, making it difficult for merchants to trust their trading behavior, and issues of data leakage and uncontrollability remain obstacles that must be overcome for scaling. Jerry pointed out, based on his own usage experience, that current Agents face security risks such as memory confusion, infinite loops consuming tokens, and accidental file deletions. Although newly emerged Agents have improvements, they still have shortcomings. Ah Huang Ricardo stated that behind the short-term sentiment is real user demand, but truly reproducible profitable trading Agents are still very rare, and there is a long way to go.Addressing core bottlenecks such as trust, security, and verifiability, Nic Tang emphasized that the current execution process of Agents is like a black box, where users cannot verify whether their decisions are executed as promised. Zero-knowledge proof technology can mathematically prove the source of the Agent's output and compliance of behavior while not exposing privacy. Anita added that Sentient is committed to building an open and collaborative AI agent network, promoting the deep integration of AI and blockchain in identity, data, and incentive layers, providing foundational support for the next generation digital economy.Regarding the application scenarios that may scale first, the guests generally believe that the programming field is relatively mature, and Agents in prediction markets perform better than humans in specific tracks due to their rationality and lack of emotions. In the short term, they are optimistic about API Marketplace and cross-platform shopping Agents, while in the medium term, they are optimistic about content creation AI (such as AI influencers). Agent-to-Agent interaction and the Agent/Skill Marketplace are seen as important future trends.

At the "Crypto 2026: From Cryptocurrency to Smart Economy" themed forum held in Hong Kong, Tencent Cloud's industry architect Alan Nie delivered a keynote speech titled "Cloud + AI Dual Engine: Tencent Cloud Empowers New Growth in Web3."Alan Nie pointed out that Web3 enterprises face three major bottlenecks in global infrastructure, R&D efficiency, and business intelligence. Tencent Cloud deeply integrates the "Cloud + AI" dual engine to provide low-latency infrastructure covering the globe. Among them, the Singapore data center is the only cloud provider in the world to offer four availability zones, and the self-developed TDSQL-C database can achieve elastic scaling in seconds, with Redis single-node performance reaching over 300,000.In terms of AI empowerment, Tencent Cloud launched CodeBuddy (AI Pair Programmer) and WorkBuddy (Personal AI Assistant), which can automatically generate code, batch process office documents, organize meeting minutes, and support multi-agent parallel execution of complex tasks. In financial scenarios, the automation of research report reproduction cycles has been shortened from three days to half a day; in on-chain data analysis scenarios, storage costs have been reduced to one-tenth of the original, with query responses reaching millisecond levels.Alan Nie stated that Tencent Cloud is committed to using the "Cloud + AI" dual engine to help Web3 enterprises build the next generation of intelligent economic infrastructure.

At the "Crypto 2026: From Cryptocurrency to Smart Economy" forum held in Hong Kong, Gongye Feng, co-founder and CEO of Monera Digital, delivered a keynote speech titled "AI Empowered Private Banking for the Smart Economy."Feng pointed out that what disappeared after 2022 was not the demand for digital assets, but the market's confidence in the ways capital could enter. Monera Digital positions itself as an AI private bank for the smart economy, where the core is not using AI as traders, but as an accelerator that compresses the research, testing, and iteration cycles from months to days.He emphasized that risk control must be institutionalized rather than personalized. Monera has built four lines of defense: constraints on exposure and collateral at the source, automated clearing and margin management, complete isolation of client assets, and eliminating maturity mismatches while maintaining liquidity buffers. In addition, AI plays the role of a 24/7 digital CRO, achieving a leap from passive monitoring to proactive warning.In terms of service model, Monera does not operate as a pure technology platform, but insists on "anti-AI illusion," where AI is responsible for optimization and efficiency, while trust, responsibility, and continuity of relationships are still borne by humans. Feng believes that the prerequisite for crypto assets to truly become configurable assets is to translate complexity into clear, continuous, and trustworthy private banking services.
