Soul Cloud AI (SCA Ecosystem Conference) Successfully Concludes — Global Resonance, Ushering in the Intelligent Era

-- The SCA Hong Kong Conference, hosted by Soul Cloud AI, was grandly held in Hong Kong and concluded successfully amid warm applause and in-depth exchanges. With the theme of “Mission · Brand · Ecosystem”, the conference gathered representatives from artificial intelligence, cryptocurrency, green sustainability, and capital markets, fully showcasing SCA’s integrated capabilities and strategic vision as a super AI computing platform powered by AI + RWA + DePIN.

Participants widely agreed that this event was not only a technological summit but also a concentrated demonstration of ecosystem co-creation. By joining hands with partners across diverse fields, Soul Cloud AI demonstrated its unique position as an “integrator” in the industry: driving forward emerging crypto projects while connecting with traditional listed companies, gradually exploring the future pathway of “Coin-Equity Parity.”

The conference officially kicked off at 3:00 PM, with a Soul Cloud AI representative delivering the opening remarks:
"Today, Hong Kong is not just the stage for Soul Cloud AI, but also a window for global collaboration and resonance in the AI ecosystem.”

AIA Module — Fireverse Unlocks the Imagination of AI + Music + Crypto Economy

The first session focused on the AIA module (AI-Alpha), with Fireverse presenting. Fireverse is a music co-creation platform that integrates cryptocurrency with AI, enabling creators to earn income by sharing music while leveraging AI tools to unleash new creative potential. As AI-generated music rises, Fireverse stands at the forefront of merging content creation, distribution, and crypto economy.

In her speech, Barbie Man, representative of Fireverse, emphasized that the collaboration with AIA is opening a new space for “AI creation + content distribution + crypto economy.” She noted:
"In the future, music will no longer be just a form of entertainment consumption, but an asset co-created with AI and circulated through the crypto economy.”

Fireverse’s past appearance on Binance Alpha further validates its industry influence and provides strong backing for SCA’s ecosystem layout.

AIZ Module — Zyra Redefines zk-BTC with Privacy and Censorship Resistance

The next session centered on the AIZ module, featuring Zyra as the partner representative. Zyra is a zk-BTC blockchain focused on privacy and censorship resistance, offering a new solution for the next stage of cryptocurrency development.

Martin, Zyra’s representative, delivered a highly technical keynote explaining the critical role of zero-knowledge proofs in safeguarding privacy and resisting censorship. He stressed:
"As global regulations on cryptocurrencies tighten, privacy and censorship resistance are no longer just technical pursuits, but essential for the survival of ecosystems.”

His remarks sparked strong resonance, with participants engaging in active discussions on how privacy protection can foster a healthier Web3 environment.

The collaboration between SCA and Zyra in the AIZ module creates new possibilities for combining AI with privacy computing, steering the Bitcoin ecosystem into a fresh narrative.

AIC Module — CCarbon Merges AI with Low-Carbon DePIN, Pioneering Carbon Credit Trading

The highlight of the conference came from the AIC module, unveiled by the CCarbon team. CCarbon is an innovative project focused on low-carbon development, featuring core products such as DePIN devices that track health data and carbon-footprint sneakers. These products not only encourage healthy lifestyles but also link personal health data with carbon reduction, promoting sustainable living.

At the conference, Charles, head of CCarbon’s Chinese community, introduced the cooperation plans with SCA: leveraging AI to integrate health data with carbon footprints and further tokenizing this data to enable carbon credit trading. He emphasized:
"CCarbon’s goal is not just to record health, but to turn everyone’s green actions into tradable value through AI and token mechanisms.”

The audience showed strong enthusiasm, with continuous applause and discussions. Many agreed that the AIC module made AI’s role in green finance and the low-carbon economy far more tangible and impactful.

Soul Cloud AI’s Integration Power — From Crypto to Traditional Capital, Advancing Coin-Equity Parity

While the guest speakers came from their own ecosystem projects, Soul Cloud AI acted as the integrator, providing a unified platform for their presentations. Through the showcases of Fireverse, Zyra, and CCarbon, the outside world witnessed Soul Cloud AI’s strength in cross-domain integration. It not only connects emerging crypto projects but also actively fosters cooperation with traditional listed companies, exploring the future path of “Coin-Equity Parity” and deeper integration between digital assets and traditional capital markets.

In the closing remarks, the Chief Marketing Officer stated:
"Soul Cloud AI is not merely a technology company, but a super AI computing platform. Through the convergence of AI, RWA, and DePIN, we are driving the global ecosystem toward greater openness, sustainability, and integration.”

He added that Soul Cloud AI would continue strengthening its business model, market expansion, and brand building, while establishing the Hong Kong Conference as an annual global AI industry event.

A Future of Infinite Possibilities

Industry experts widely believe that the Hong Kong Conference demonstrated not only Soul Cloud AI’s technological vision but also its global integration capabilities. From AI music to zk-BTC privacy, from health data to carbon credit trading, Soul Cloud AI is advancing the deep fusion of artificial intelligence and real-world assets through collaborations with ecosystem partners. With each new application implemented, its value across the industry is continuously reinforced.

By leveraging a model of “technology-driven + ecosystem-backed + cross-sector integration,” Soul Cloud AI is gradually constructing an open and diverse intelligent ecosystem. Supported by AI, RWA, and DePIN, Soul Cloud AI’s future holds infinite possibilities. Each deployed module and ecosystem project represents an indispensable piece of the future industry landscape.

The successful conclusion of this Hong Kong Conference was both a feast of ideas and a strategic declaration from Soul Cloud AI: the future of artificial intelligence lies not in isolated breakthroughs, but in global collaboration through cross-sector integration and collective industry development.
