In 2022, AGI AI Private Limited (AGI AI) built AI quantitative trading, wholly owned by AGI AI to provide the core technology and principles of underlying logic. We develop strategic plan as well as goals for long-term AI+ finance. AGI AI has structured its strategic development plan into five steps. Step 1. Creating The Perfect Combination of AI + Finance: Automated factor discovery, knowledge graph, graph computing, and enhanced analytics based on privacy protection will deliver greater value. AGI AI has estimated that AI technologies could create up to $1 trillion in incremental value for the global banking industry each year; Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define AI as “a system’s ability to correctly interpret external data, to learn from such data and to use those learnings to achieve specific goals and tasks through flexible adaptation”. Today, AI technology has made even greater strides by making it possible to achieve specific goals and tasks through flexible adaptation for the future, AI technology has come a long way, bringing more far-reaching changes to many industries, including finance. Step 2. Blockchain: Intelligent futures, Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) and Cross-chain Technology brings new opportunities. The Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT) is another important technology for building the financial ecosystem, where key technologies such as Smart Contract, Zero Knowledge Proof, distributed data storage and exchange enables applications such as Digital wallets, digital assets, Decentralized Finance (DeFi), Non-Fungible Token (NFT) and other applications. Cross-chain technologies are dedicated to solving the issues of chain-based interactions between enterprises that are deployed on different blockchains. Step 3. Cloud Computing: Agility, high flexibility, microservices cloud-native advantages are given more priority. AGI AI research indicates that the cloud will be worth more than $1 trillion in EBITDA (earnings before taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization) for Global Top 500 companies by 2030. Effective cloud technology utilization can increase development and maintenance efficiency of migrated applications by 38%, enhance infrastructure cost efficiency by 29% and reduces downtime of migration applications by approximately 57%. This leads to a 26% reduction in breach costs. Simultaneously, the cloud technology can improve the integrity of platforms through automated embedded security processes and controls such as DevSecOps, and these capabilities reduce technical risk through a consistent technology stack across multiple platforms. Step 4. Internet of Things: Everything is connected to build a new integrity system and unlimited potential for integration with financial services. AGI AI believes that the Internet of Things will bring revolutionary changes to the world in the coming years, in which connected devices will play an important role. In terms of technical architecture, the AGI system consists of intelligent sensing and sensing systems. Technically, it consist of three levels: wireless communication network, application and operation support. First, the continuous development of sensing technology, such as RFID tag technology is a comprehensive technology that integrates wireless radio frequency technology and embedded technology. RFID has a broad application prospect in automatic identification and item logistics management. Second, the growing diversity of the Internet of Things (IoT) communication solutions, wired and wireless networks, Near-field Communication Solutions (NFC), Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWN), Narrowband Internet of Things (NBI), interconnection of end devices and centralized control management provide communication network security. Third is the development of embedded system technology and intelligent technology. Through the embedding of intelligent system in the devices enables the devices to have certain intelligence to achieve active or passive communication. Step 5. Hyper Automation: Robotic Process Automation (RPA) technologies and other automated technologies as a substitute for manual labor. Hyper-automation is the introduction of artificial intelligence, deep learning, event-driven programming software and robotics for business processes. These technologies or digital solutions can help improve the efficiency of decision-making and work automation. AGI AI believes that these key technologies do not exist in isolation. These technologies are intertwined, embedded and integrated, thus creating tremendous energy and triggering changes in the industry. These core technology combinations are now being applied in financial segments, and will have greater value in the future and influence the competitive market structure of FinTech and the financial industry. Both traditional financial institutions and innovative fintech companies will need to focus on value areas, develop new technologies and reserve capabilities to build core competencies in the technology aspect. AGI AI brings the combination of three technological developments – robotics, artificial intelligence and new financial technologies – that will revolutionize the world. Dr. Peter Frankopan, a historian and veteran researcher at Worcester College, Oxford, notes that the shift is not as frightening as a flood. He said: “Transformation is absolutely normal and irresistible”. In this new era of technological innovation, investors facing the shift may be unable to do anything about it, but they can move with the trend and benefit from it. AGI AI’s mission and vision is to maintain the originality and allow AI to lead human advancement. AGI AI is dedicated to have AI contribute to the development of economy, society and human beings to build a better future together. In 2018, AGI AI established the AGI AI Research Center, aiming to deepen the integration of AI with traditional finance and launch the AGI AI Intelligent Trading Bot and Intelligent Financial Expert Service Program in 2022. AGI AI is recruiting a team of dedicated employees and communities with strong consensus and a passionate workforce. Join us to form a global AGI AI digital finance eco-community. Together we shall witness the development and rise of AGI AI and share the success of AI quantitative trading investments!

On September 24, Beosin, a leading global Web3.0 blockchain security company, launched the “Blockchain Security Alliance” in partnership with the Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS) Node for Inclusive FinTech (NiFT), the National University of Singapore (NUS) Asian Institute of Digital Finance (AIDF), Singapore Blockchain Association, FOMO Pay, Coinhako, Onchain Custodian, Paritybit, and Semisand. The Alliance members will cooperate closely in blockchain ecology, integrating technological innovation in the field of blockchain security, exploring and establishing a sound blockchain security ecosystem. The Alliance aims to foster collaborations between the industry, academia, and researchers in blockchain security, apply scientific and technological innovations, and create a sustainable environment for Web3 blockchain ecosystem development. With the interests of Singapore at its core, the Alliance wish to raise cybersecurity awareness among Singapore blockchain startups and enterprises and to help integrate the Chinese Web3 community into the local business culture. With the rapid development of the Web3 ecosystem, cybersecurity issues should not be overlooked, which is also the core reason for establishing the Blockchain Security Alliance. Last Saturday, Professor Monica Yang, the founder of Beosin, Global FinTech Institute (GFI) Chairman & SUSS Professor David Lee Kuo Chuen, Da Hong Fei, the founder of Neo, Yang Zhan, the co-founder of FOMO Pay, and Patrick Dai, the founder of Qtum, had a panel discussion on the topic “How to build a secure Web3 ecosystem in Singapore”. It was an informative and insightful exchange with more than one hundred on-site audiences. According to Professor Monica Yang, “The Web3 atmosphere in Singapore is very vibrant with a handful of top blockchain companies setting up their offices here in Singapore. Beosin has also formed a local elite team to serve Beosin overseas customers from Singapore. Undeniably, there is a lack of tech talent in Singapore and this prompted us to work closely with universities in Singapore and China. Together with the industry experts, the team will provide training and overcome the manpower crunch. This is also one of the main reasons why Professor David Lee and I, along with the rest of the Alliance members, are so determined to launch the Blockchain Security Alliance. David Lee Kuo Chuen, Professor at the Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS), commented on the current state of Web3 security industry and the vital role that security companies play in developing the blockchain ecosystem. He further highlighted the inclusiveness of Singapore’s policy and how it has continued to attract global talents. At every stage of development, Singapore embraced and adopted each industry’s most advanced technology. Therefore, the establishment of security companies will have a significant impact on the blockchain ecosystem. Web3 has no boundaries, and together with partners like Beosin, we wish to strengthen the Web3 security ecosystem. Meanwhile, Mr. Da Hongfei has shared his insights on the industry’s development over the last two years. On hacking and its impact on the blockchain ecosystem, Mr Yang Zhan brought up security-related issues in digital payment. At the same time, Mr Patrick Dai shared his view on the development and innovation of blockchain technology and how important it is for cybersecurity to be in place. During the panel discussion, the panellists shared their vision for Web3 and how they can contribute to the development of the Web3 ecosystem. Establishing the Blockchain Security Alliance will lead to a community committed to defending the blockchain ecosystem’s security. The community will consist of tertiary education institutions, researchers and security industry experts. The Alliance members will work on guidelines and codes of conduct for the blockchain security industry, conduct research and development, roll out blockchain ecosystem security alerts, generate monthly and annual security reports, and ensure the development of a healthy blockchain ecosystem. The Alliance will also conduct information security information-sharing sessions and public welfare training, train talents in blockchain security, and organise annual global blockchain conferences to discuss and disseminate blockchain technology’s latest trends and challenges. Towards the end, Professor Monica Yang underpinned the vision the Blockchain Security Alliance. She said, “With the establishment of the Alliance, we are not only looking at making tangible contributions to the blockchain security ecosystem for the development of the industry. The establishment of the Alliance also reminds us to remember our mission – to focus on the research and development of blockchain security and provide a one-stop solution for blockchain enterprises and regulators. The services include auditing code security, system security monitoring and alerts, compliance security audit and anti-money laundering. At the same time, we will work with the universities and the Alliance members to promote fundamental blockchain security knowledge, cultivate blockchain security talents and defend the development of the blockchain security ecosystem.” If you would like to join the “Blockchain Security Alliance”, please feel free to contact us.

Recently, Maxity, the world’s first Web3 social impact protocol, has announced the innovative creation of the pioneering Volunteer and Reward (V&R) model which will be integrated into its Symbiotic Metaverse. The model is to attract more people from around the world to participate in volunteering and solve social issues, with the help of Web3 and blockchain technology. It is also aimed to bring revolution and systematic upgrade to both the traditional internet industry and the blockchain industry. We have all seen the infamous Play to Earn model, allowing gamers to play games while earning a living at the same time. Sounds wondrous? Not Really. The 625M hack on Ronin Bridge resulting in Ronin suspending withdrawals of players money, plummeting of AXS and SLP and eventually players losing thousands, even millions. This according to Bloomberg, made Web3 seems like “a sketchy financial instrument while hackers prey on everyone involved”. Web3, the inevitable future that will change and shape the world at an unprecedented rate, as you may see is currently being used to exploit money out of users, scarring users instead of welcoming them to embrace the world of blockchain. For example, we have all seen some Move-to-Earn models failed to make it through the death spiral of the crashing price of sneakers and tokens. It seems that all “X 2 Earn” models that claim to repay users in as quick as a few months or even weeks are all Ponzi schemes. Therefore, it is noteworthy that how Maxity’s Symbiotic-Metaverse-based V&R model is to solve this critical issue and it is worth looking forward to how the model will attract more people to get involved in volunteering and solve all kinds of global sustainability issues. Why Volunteer and Reward (V&R)? The birth of the world’s first V&R model was announced during the VIP event hosted by Maxity at the House of Lords in London in late June. The model will be integrated in the future development of Maxity’s Symbiotic Metaverse where businesses and individuals can make direct interactions and transactions free of third parties. At the beginning, Maxity named the model as Volunteer-to-earn to allow better understanding for users. However, through thorough research, it has come to realisation that volunteer to earn model has a certain conflict to the original purpose of voluntary activities. It imposes a negative influence on positive charitable events, while volunteer and recognition does not classify as powerful incentivisation. Therefore, Volunteer to earn model is optimised to Volunteer and Reward. Looking at the statistics, there are more than 1B volunteers worldwide, exceeding the number of unemployed people, indicating even low income, unemployed people squeeze out time to do charities work. It is the human deepest desires to give back to the community. By volunteering in various events, it brought purposes, improves physical and mental health and at the same time expanding our network. V&R model, brought by Maxity acknowledges the importance of volunteering, especially due to Covid-19 which forces closures of industries and schools, widens social inequalities and global poverty, restricting offline volunteering events. Various NGOs and charities are facing issues on motivating people to volunteer and encouraging them to spend more time and energy on charitable events to solve social problems. This is when V&R steps in to be an incentivisation tool of NGOs and charities. V&R, relaying earning a living through volunteering, incentivises users to do charities works by turning all volunteering events into rewarding experience. This model innovates the meanings of Web3 industry, the long-term stable dividend allows the sustainable development of this incentive mode, which motivates a lot of charitable users join the blockchain world and solve social issues with sustainability. How do volunteers get rewards from Maxity? Maxity changes the volunteers’ behavior by letting them join the metaverse and work in it for the charity. Various kinds of charities publish different charity tasks on the virtual land in Symbiotic Metaverse based on the issues they aim to solve and set rewarding standards together with Maxity. Volunteers worldwide holding Avatar NFTs of Symbiotic Metaverse can start claiming charitable tasks, each completion comes with certain rewards. The rewards come in 2 forms, Max Token (native token of Maxity platform) and MAXI Token (Volunteer and Reward token). For example, one charitable organisation on Symbiotic Metaverse holds a volunteer event with participants from all over the globe. Each participant must accomplish certain tasks, either through offline or online mode. The experience of volunteer activities is designed to be captivating with creative method using AR technology (imagine Pokémon Go). Completing the tasks brings them rewards that helps charities and volunteers. The rewards can either come from Maxity or organisations that have settled in Symbiotic Metaverse, e.g., charities, governments, etc. MAXI token is rewarded according to the participant’s contribution. With MAXI token, members are able to exchange metaverse devices, upgrade virtual lands utility, construct buildings, etc. All the utility, buildings, land comes in the form of NFTs and are tradeable on Maxity NFT marketplace. Maxity has customised the ROI ratio of the Avatar NFTs and the V&R model reasonably. Incomes from investments by governments and enterprises and the return elasticity brought by the Web3 industry dividend guarantees the sustainable operation of the V&R model without the fear of capital shortage, which resolves the short life cycle issue in Play-to-earn models. To summarise, the world’s first Volunteer and Reward model created by Maxity aims to be a Web3 application that combines innovativeness and social responsibility and break the doom of X-to-earn models. The model will attract lots of Web2 users and volunteers from the globe to join Web3 industry, which could, to some degrees, change people’s prejudices to the blockchain industry and allow the blockchain technology to serve the society better, revolutionize the traditional internet industry, and achieve a systematic upgrade.
