With the rapid development of AI and blockchain technology, the music industry is also experiencing an unprecedented wave of transformation. From AI-driven music generation tools like Suno and AIVA lowering the barriers to creation, to blockchain platforms like Audius and Opulous ensuring copyright and revenue distribution through decentralized mechanisms, technology is reshaping the landscape of music creation and dissemination.

Following closely, Fireverse appears like a breath of fresh air, presenting an innovative model of "AI + Web3." This AI music platform, incubated by Mr. Stephen Chow as the First Creator of Nobody, is unique—it allows ordinary people to easily create music while using blockchain technology to protect the rights of every creator and enrich new gameplay. In simple terms, Fireverse aims to build a new musical world where "everyone can create, and every work has value." The platform also embeds film and offline scenarios through deep cooperation with the Bigo Group and the 9527 offline theater; by hosting community events with stars like Kay Tse and Vivian Chow, it ignites the passion of creators.

We interviewed Ignious Yong, a senior advisor at Fireverse, to discuss how Fireverse uses technology and creativity as engines to create a musical utopia where "everyone can create, and creation has value," making music creation more free and fun.

Host: As a project incubated by Mr. Stephen Chow as the First Creator of Nobody, Fireverse carries a unique brand gene. The platform's vision is to create a new ecosystem of music where "everyone can create, and creation has value." There must be profound thoughts behind this concept. Could you share how this idea first emerged as part of the co-creation team? What unique perspectives has your personal experience brought to Fireverse?

Ignious Yong: Before investing in and supporting Fireverse, Nobody considered what creator-related tracks would stand out in the era of AI prevalence: we felt that AI-generated music videos and games were likely to become a highlight of the combination of Web3 and AI. When we discussed the business logic with the Fireverse team, we were attracted by their thinking on business expansion. By significantly reducing the cost of music creation, more users can participate in music creation and profit from it, combined with the dissemination power of the Web3 community, we believe this is the future of music creation, dissemination, and monetization.

As a project incubated by Nobody, Fireverse naturally integrates the innovative spirit of artist IP with the foresight of Web3 technology. The vision of Fireverse—"everyone can create, and creation has value"—stems from a deep insight into the pain points of the music industry: traditional music creation is monopolized by high technical barriers and resource barriers, while streaming platforms in the Web2 era have failed to address the imbalance in creator revenue distribution. The birth of Fireverse is precisely to lower the barriers to creation with AI and reshape value distribution with blockchain, allowing music to return to the essence of public expression.

I am a music enthusiast and also very optimistic about the development of Web3 + AI, believing that this combination can bring more users into the Web3 field. I hope that here, everyone can create freely, distribute freely, and obtain the value they deserve through on-chain mechanisms.

Host: On a technical level, how does AI music generation technology lower the barriers to creation? How can ordinary users quickly create high-quality music through the platform?

Ignious Yong: Currently, the core creative method supported by the Fireverse platform is text-to-music generation. Users do not need to understand music theory or instruments; they only need to input a text description, and the AI engine will parse keywords within 3 seconds, automatically matching rhythm patterns, chord progressions, and sound libraries to generate a personalized music framework. It's like having a music producer who "understands human language."

For ordinary users, they only need to capture their inspirational snippets at any time, such as: a line of poetry or a sentence, a scene, or directly recording ambient sounds. The AI will automatically convert these into musical elements and then stylize and refine the details based on that. Fireverse can help ordinary users start from scratch, significantly lowering the barriers to creation and providing a sense of achievement in creation.

Fireverse's new music model is also about to meet everyone, with comprehensive upgrades in music structure, melodic logic, and stylistic diversity, making the generated music more in line with human auditory aesthetics and emotional expression. In the future, we will gradually introduce more interactive methods such as humming generation and melody + lyrics combination creation, continuously expanding creative freedom.

At the same time, after the Fireverse token generation event, we will actively develop more distribution and traffic-driving features, allowing users to monetize their AI music creations more quickly. Additionally, for loyal users creating music on our platform, we will provide more rewards and support in the community to co-create ecological development.

Host: During the integration of AI and Web3 technologies, what technical challenges did the team encounter? For example, in terms of data privacy, computing costs, or user experience? How did Fireverse overcome these obstacles?

Ignious Yong: Looking back at the entire product refinement process, the team indeed faced some challenges. The first point is computing costs. Fireverse initially used large models to generate music, which produced high-quality music, but the corresponding computing cost was also particularly high, which put some pressure on us. Later, we shifted to a combination of lightweight models and algorithm compression, reducing computing costs by 80% while maintaining quality.

In terms of data privacy, the team also recognized the inherent conflict between the transparency of blockchain and the sensitivity of AI data. For example, the "humming generation music" feature that the team is preparing will involve users' audio data, which may pose potential risks of voiceprint information leakage. In response, the team is exploring the introduction of privacy protection technologies like ZK to ensure that users have stronger data protection when participating in creation in the future.

Host: There are already some music-related projects on the market, such as Audius, which is using blockchain technology to slightly tilt the balance towards artists, while Sound uses NFTs to represent music ownership. In your opinion, how does Fireverse innovate compared to these projects, and what advantages does it have?

Ignious Yong: A good ecosystem requires a hundred flowers to bloom. We greatly appreciate the explorations of excellent platforms like Audius and Sound in the Web3 music field; they have accumulated a lot of valuable experience for the industry. Fireverse does not see them as "competitors"; we hope to be mutual inspirations and co-evolutionary partners, just like Apple Music coexists with Spotify and many other music software, making the entire industry ecosystem more prosperous.

The biggest difference between Fireverse and these two Web3 + AI music platforms, aside from the business model, is that we have relatively rich resources. For example, artist IP resources, entertainment industry resources, and other AI-generated content resources. Fireverse has already engaged in deep cooperation with many well-known stars and artists, so please stay tuned for the development of our ecosystem; Fireverse will have more exciting news to announce in the near future.

Of course, from the perspective of product logic and vision, Fireverse has significant differentiation compared to them, mainly reflected in two aspects: the accessibility of AI creation and the deep integration of Web3 applications. In simple terms, in addition to AI music creation, the Fireverse platform will also develop features for traffic generation and music monetization, allowing ordinary users to earn money through their creations on the platform. Additionally, top music artists can co-create high-quality music with their fans on our platform.

In other words, Fireverse is attempting to build a music platform empowered by AI creation × on-chain monetization through Web3 × community co-construction driving traffic. We hope that every work not only has melody but also value; every user is not just a listener but also a creator and participant, and everyone can profit on the platform.

Host: AI has indeed lowered the barriers for ordinary users to create and increased everyone's output capacity. Do you think this will make users overly reliant on tools and lose their individuality, such as simply reprocessing existing music and infringing on the original creator's intellectual property?

Ignious Yong: This question is very insightful, and it is indeed a topic we pay special attention to when designing our products, not only in the Web3 field but also in the Web2 field, where AI music faces the same scrutiny.

In fact, AI is a tool that releases individual productivity rather than replacing humans. AI is indeed a tool; it can make highly creative individuals more efficient while also allowing them to try music creation in a low-cost environment. Therefore, the Fireverse platform needs to enable both ordinary users and professional users to maximize their creative abilities on this platform.

Host: Fireverse's AI and Web3 technologies perform impressively in generating and distributing music value. Could you share how the platform transforms entertainment industry resources into business opportunities? What ecological considerations are behind this?

Ignious Yong: When the Fireverse team approached Nobody for collaboration, they valued the entertainment and artist resources that Nobody possesses, while Nobody actively connected relevant resources and business model suggestions when it began incubating and investing in Fireverse.

For example, collaborating with Kay Tse on the "Time Trilogy": users participate in team PK by generating songs through AI, and the winning works are sung by Kay Tse, with rewards and royalty distribution to users. This event attracted over 7 million users, generating 300,000 songs and driving a 45% increase in platform users.

We achieved similar results with Vivian Chow.

Additionally, Fireverse is discussing more business collaborations with the Bigo Group, so please stay tuned for the construction of our future ecosystem.

Host: Does Fireverse have any new developments to share with us? According to official data, over 500,000 pieces of music have been generated through the platform, and the music of the virtual idol launched has exceeded 4 million views on streaming platforms like YouTube, which is an impressive achievement. What are the next steps in terms of technology iteration, listing, and ecological expansion or globalization?

Ignious Yong: As of now, the Fireverse platform has generated over 500,000 AI works, with a user base exceeding 16 million. The total views of its virtual idol works on platforms like YouTube have surpassed 4 million, establishing itself as a benchmark for the commercialization of Web3 + AI music and becoming the largest AI music platform on the BNB CHAIN, validating users' high recognition of the Fireverse platform.

In terms of technological iteration, Fireverse will upgrade its AI creative capabilities, launching an AI arrangement and vocal training system, and opening up customizable style models.

On the ecological front, Fireverse will promote more artist IP collaborations and penetration into offline scenarios to achieve mutual traffic guidance among all elements and continue to capture the market.

Host: The combination of AI and Web3 shows great potential in Fireverse. What potential application scenarios do you see for this technological integration in other industries (such as film and television arts, medical data sharing, or financial services)? How do you view the development trends of AI and Web3 integration in the next 5-10 years?

Ignious Yong: I believe that the integration of AI and Web3 is one of the most transformative technological paths for the digital society in the next decade.

There are too many possibilities that could occur, and I wouldn't dare to say them all myself. What is certain is that creators will face a significant technological revolution. The cost of creation will be greatly reduced, even to less than 90% of the current costs. If future creators do not master the technology of AI-generated content, they will face the fate of being eliminated.

Similarly, some creators who master the technology of AI-generated content and possess strong creativity will reap substantial rewards. If these creators also participate in the Web3 field, they can enrich the entire Web3 ecosystem, making the general public more willing to accept Web3.

Host: Thank you for your insights. Finally, what message do you have for music creators or community members who are following Fireverse?

Ignious Yong: Thank you all for your support and contributions to the construction of the Fireverse ecosystem. I hope the Fireverse team can live up to everyone's expectations. Moreover, I know that the Fireverse team is preparing to announce some significant collaborations shortly after the token generation event, so please stay tuned.
