SoftBank Focuses On The Layout Of The Metaverse With AOS To Create A Brand-New Future

Published

on

Recently, Softbank Ventures Asia publicly announced that it has begun to focus on Metaverse and invested in the AOS project. It will cooperate with AOS to connect and integrate more Metaverses in AI, NFT, robotics, and other fields, and carry the development of large-scale killer applications.

The enthusiastic investment in Metaverse has not subsided, but it has risen again. The technology giants have all entered the Metaverse. Facebook plans to fully transform into Metaverse before 2025, and will set up a product team to accelerate investment in VR/AR and the creator community; Bytedance, which has always believed in Striving for Miracles, merged Mutong Technology for 4 billion USD, and begin to lay out the Metaverse; Axie Infinity builds NFT games based on the Metaverse, subverting the traditional game mode and becoming a phenomenon-level game product; miHOYO, the developer of “Genshin Impact”, formed an AI scientist inverse entropy team, and self-developed Avatar Luming to explore the brain-computer interface. Through investment, miHOYO has successfully deployed the social Metaverse Soul; the Internet industry is renewing and iterating rapidly, and companies need to attach importance to meet unknown concepts and challenges or be left behind by the times.

In the Metaverse era, everything has virtual avatars. The concept of Metaverse seems to be still in the mist today, but the prelude to the new era has been opened, and it is closer than you think.

The popularization of the term Metaverse was cited from the novel Avalanche by American science fiction writer Neil Stephenson in 1992. In his book, he used the word Metaverse for the first time without foundation and described it as a parallel universe projected from the real world through technical means such as the Internet. However, anyone who has watched the movie “Ready Player One” by the great director Steven Spielberg should probably understand this concept. Like the “Oasis” in the movie, the company has created a realistic virtual world outside of the real world. Every player in the real world has another identity in the virtual world, establishes another social circle, and leads another life. Although the Metaverse is only a virtual world, its immersion is so vivid that you will think it is the real world and enjoy life in this new world.

AOS (Artificial Intelligence Operating System) is the first operating system developed by Canada Unicorn Park, based on the underlying blockchain technology to connect the Metaverse. By building a Metaverse bridge online, and using robots as an intelligent carrier offline to build an ecosystem between Metaverses and provide a new experience for integration with Metaverse and the real world.

Based on AOS, users could create an AI NFT that has autonomous consciousness and advanced self-learning capability; And it also gets influenced by the distributed personality database on the chain to build character, and gradually complete neural network-style self-learning and improvements. Most of all, the distributed character database is based on the “Book of Changes” and appropriately constructs the character of AI; users can inject their favorite characters, personalities, voices, etc., into their own AI NFT, and tame it to learn more skills. AOS encourages users to integrate more characters and personalities, combined with NFT to create different artistic values. The custom AI itself has NFT attributes. Users can customize the appearance of AI on the network, and can also authorize access to a third-party character customization system, such as specific character images and voices, and third-party NFT star voices and appearances, packaged in the form of NFT used for trading and collection.

AOS connects the first-generation physical carrier, the AI four-wheel driving robot Mars_1 with the Metaverse and the real world, creating a new user experience.

Mars_1 is a highly integrated artificial intelligence robot product. Its appearance is in the form of a four-legged driving robot dog. It adopts an original five-layer motion control technology and several technical indicators are in a leading position in the global industry. Mars_1 has integrated the Internet of Things, 5G, virtual reality/augmented reality, intelligent driving, swarm intelligence, and other technologies. Mars_1 will obey commands and gradually be closer to a dog and then become to a good assistant to humankind.

On the road to the Metaverse, AOS always hopes to leave a strong and colorful stroke in its own way. Connect the Metaverse through AI and map out the experience and lifestyle of the future. For the world that people dream of, high-intelligence AI coupled with linkage with robots will be an indispensable component of this era. As the aboriginal and basic units of the Metaverse, these virtual species based on AOS will continue to establish connections with us beyond human beings in the infinite space and time of the future, transcending the fetters of races.

Sun Zhengyi believes: “We are about to experience the biggest change in human history. AI will eventually replace human beings. This is not only reflected in knowledge but also in intelligence. This change will happen in this century, and then in the next 30 years, there is no doubt that our focus is on AI, intelligent robots, and the IOTs.” Based on this analysis and judgment, SoftBank has frequently carried out large-scale layouts in the fields of AI, intelligent robots, and  IOTs. Start from all aspects to create a powerful robot empire. Today, SoftBank’s industries have completed the layout of the future of the new Internet field as Sun Zhengyi said in the past, and completed more than half of the investment of unicorn companies on a global scale, laying a foundation for the subsequent development of the IOTs in the world.

As a world-renowned “Animation Kingdom”, Japan has an irreplaceable influence in the global animation field. After half a century of development, the Japanese animation industry has formed an extremely large system, making Japan the world’s largest animation production and exporting country, and it also around animation IP to derive cultural and creative products, such as GK. With the development of smart technology, they also work hard in the direction of intelligence for GK. Headquartered in Japan, SoftBank has a unique geographical location and is deeply immersed in Japanese IP culture. This collaboration with AOS will further promote the combination of the GK industry and the AI​industry, and provide AOS with a steady stream of IP resources. Users’ favorite characters such as Luffy, Conan, Sailor Moon, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Inuyasha, etc., can inject their image and personality into AI to create your smart figure. Each AI figure is a unique individual, and different parameters also create different expressions and styles. At the same time, when users have more exchanges with AI, they will gradually become familiar with the user’s temper and preferences and adjust their apparent personality in real-time and dynamically making it infinitely close to the form that we want to see eventually.

The product made by a single company is not enough to be called a Metaverse but constitutes an ecological system. With the deep participation of users, if it is successful in collective efforts to build a more interoperable system, and it can be transformed into different layers, then it should be called a Metaverse. AOS is committed to becoming the link between the physical world and the virtual world, as a bridge between various Metaverses to connect the Metaverse and continue to build a new Metaverse ecology. This will be the top priority in the next stage of the development of the Internet after the mobile Internet.

What kind of world will mankind be in the future? SoftBank Asia and AOS have worked together because of the same concept for Metaverse and jointly created such a grand concept, standing at the forefront of the Metaverse economic tide, seizing opportunities, embracing the new future, and believing that with their win-win cooperation, they will give a perfect answer for the world.

The platform is designed to become a trusted resource for bypassing the Great Firewall and accessing the global internet securely and reliably.

As internet censorship and digital access restrictions continue to evolve across mainland China, CN Best VPN addresses a growing need for accurate and up-to-date VPN information. The platform focuses exclusively on VPN services that function effectively under China’s restrictive network conditions, helping users avoid unreliable or outdated recommendations commonly found on generic review websites.

One of the platform’s key resources is its comprehensive guide, “VPN for China” , which evaluates VPN providers based on real-world performance inside China. Each service is tested for connection stability, speed, encryption strength, server availability, and its ability to bypass advanced censorship technologies such as deep packet inspection (DPI).

“Finding a VPN that actually works in mainland China can be extremely frustrating,” said Rayan, Contact Person at CN Best VPN. “Our goal is to remove that uncertainty by offering independent reviews based on hands-on testing, not marketing claims.”

In addition to detailed VPN reviews, CN Best VPN provides step-by-step setup guides for major platforms, including Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, and routers. These tutorials are designed to help users install and configure VPN software correctly, even when official app stores or VPN websites are blocked.

The website also features practical guides on accessing blocked websites and services such as Google, YouTube, WhatsApp, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), Netflix, and international news outlets. By focusing on usability and clarity, CN Best VPN supports individuals who rely on open internet access for communication, education, entertainment, and professional work.

While much of the content is currently published in English, CN Best VPN is actively expanding translated materials to better serve Chinese-speaking users. Key guides and essential information are being localized to ensure broader accessibility for both domestic users and international audiences seeking China-specific VPN solutions.

CN Best VPN maintains full editorial independence and does not accept paid rankings or sponsored placements that compromise review integrity. All recommendations are based on transparent testing methodologies and ongoing performance evaluations as censorship measures and VPN technologies change.

With the launch of https://cnbestvpn.com/, CN Best VPN aims to become one of the most reliable and practical resources for VPN usage in mainland China.

Press Release

Finance Complaint List Warns of a 500% Surge in AI-Powered Deepfake Crypto Scams Driven by Celebrity Impersonations

Published

2 hours ago

on

February 4, 2026

By

Globally people are losing millions in minutes as hyper-realistic videos, fake news broadcasts, and live executive impersonations turn artificial intelligence into the most dangerous fraud weapon of 2026.

The Finance Complaint List, a global consumer-fraud monitoring and reporting network, has issued a major warning to investors and the public after documenting a 500 percent surge in AI-powered deepfake cryptocurrency scams fueled by celebrity impersonations, fake testimonials, and fabricated news broadcasts. According to the latest findings, these scams have rapidly become 4.5 times more profitable than traditional financial fraud, with individual victims losing more than $5 million in under 20 minutes to a single attack.

The explosive growth of these scams marks a new phase in cyber-enabled financial crime, where artificial intelligence has transformed deception into something nearly indistinguishable from reality.

Finance Complaint List is actively assisting victims in documenting and reporting fraudulent activity through its online platform, www.financecomplaintlist.com, which serves as a public database for scam alerts, verified complaints, and educational resources.

Hyper-Realistic Deepfakes Now Power Crypto Fraud

AI-generated deepfake videos of celebrities and crypto influencers promoting fake investment schemes jumped 500 percent in 2025. Using advanced face-swap software, voice cloning, and large language models, criminals are producing highly convincing videos of prominent figures such as Elon Musk and Vitalik Buterin appearing to endorse fraudulent cryptocurrency giveaways, trading platforms, and so-called “exclusive” investment opportunities.

These are no longer crude or blurry forgeries. The videos replicate real speech patterns, facial movements, gestures, and backgrounds pulled from legitimate interviews and public appearances, making them virtually indistinguishable from authentic footage.

Victims are being shown videos of Elon Musk “announcing” new Tesla-linked crypto projects or Vitalik Buterin “revealing” Ethereum airdrops, all designed to push them toward fake platforms that steal their funds the moment they connect their wallets.

How the Scams Are Delivered

Finance Complaint List reports that today’s deepfake scams operate across a sophisticated, multi-channel ecosystem:

  • Deepfake videos of celebrities promising to double Bitcoin investments
  • AI-generated customer testimonials claiming massive profits
  • Fake news broadcasts announcing government-backed crypto initiatives
  • Live video calls impersonating company executives
  • Phishing links that mimic MetaMask or Trust Wallet to drain funds instantly

Scammers also personalize their attacks using public data from social media, sending messages such as, “Hey [Your Name], I saw your BTC posts—join this 2026 presale!”

These messages are then spread across X, TikTok, Telegram, and private messaging apps, amplified by bot networks and purchased social-media accounts.

$5 Million in Minutes: The Financial Impact

The financial speed of these scams is unprecedented. In one documented case from June 2024, a deepfake Elon Musk appeared in a live YouTube broadcast promoting a cryptocurrency giveaway. Victims sent funds to a scam wallet, which collected at least $5 million within 20 minutes, and more than $5 million between March 2024 and January 2025.

Another Chainabuse report from November 2023 revealed a deepfake Musk video pushing an AI-powered trading platform that generated over $3.3 million between July 2023 and February 2024. Funds in both cases were traced to major exchanges and darknet markets, demonstrating how quickly money disappears into global laundering networks.

Live Deepfake Executive Impersonations

Finance Complaint List warns that scammers are no longer limited to prerecorded videos. Live deepfake video calls now allow criminals to impersonate company executives, employees, family members, and friends in real time.

In February 2024, a multinational company in Hong Kong lost millions after an employee joined a video call with scammers impersonating senior executives using live face-swap technology.

In other cases, criminals clone a victim’s voice to contact family members, claiming they are in trouble and need money urgently. In Asia, scammers commonly impersonate friends or relatives to persuade victims to invest in fake crypto schemes they claim are profitable.

TRM has documented over $60 million, largely in Ethereum, flowing through scams that used live deepfakes, indicating the extraordinary scale of these operations.

The Rise of AI-Generated CEOs and Staff

Deepfake technology is also being used to fabricate entire companies. One of the largest pyramid schemes of 2024, MetaMax, reportedly used an AI-generated CEO avatar to present itself as legitimate while collecting nearly $200 million from victims worldwide.

Another scam, babit[.]cc, created AI-generated images of its supposed staff instead of using real people, a tactic that becomes harder to detect as the technology improves.

False Celebrity Giveaways Flood Social Media

Crypto giveaway scams continue to dominate platforms like X and YouTube. Fraudsters impersonate celebrities such as Elon Musk and Donald Trump, promising to return double or triple any crypto sent to them. Once funds are transferred, the scammers vanish.

In 2025, these scams increasingly rely on deepfakes, making fake celebrity endorsements appear authentic enough to fool even experienced crypto users.

Industrial-Scale Scam Networks

Finance Complaint List highlights how fraud has become fully industrialized. The Lighthouse Enterprise model shows how modern scams operate as businesses with specialized teams:

  • Developer groups build phishing tools
  • Data brokers sell targeted victim lists
  • Spammer groups distribute scams at scale
  • Theft teams launder stolen funds
  • Administrative units manage recruitment and coordination

Scams using phishing kits are 688 times more effective in dollar terms than traditional scams, while those using bulk social-media accounts are 238 times more effective.

Global Law Enforcement Strikes Back

A major blow to global scam networks came when the U.S. Department of Justice unsealed charges against Prince Group chairman Chen Zhi, accused of running forced-labor scam compounds in Cambodia that powered large-scale crypto fraud.

Authorities seized and targeted more than $15 billion in illicit proceeds, while the U.S. Treasury and the UK’s Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office sanctioned 146 entities linked to the Prince Group’s transnational crime network.

Chen was arrested in Cambodia in January 2026 and extradited to China, highlighting the complex geopolitical challenges of dismantling global crypto crime.

AI Makes Scams 4.5 Times More Profitable

A July 2025 report by J.P. Morgan found that scams linked to AI vendors generate $3.2 million per operation, compared to $719,000 for non-AI scams. These operations also process nine times more transactions per day, showing how AI allows criminals to target and manage far more victims simultaneously.

Will Lyne, Head of Economic & Cybercrime at the Metropolitan Police, stated, “Fraud linked to cryptocurrency continues to grow in scale and sophistication, with organised crime groups increasingly using impersonation tactics, online infrastructure, and AI-enabled tools to target victims at pace and scale. However, we are also seeing a step change in law enforcement’s ability to respond.”

How to Report Crypto Scams in 2026

Finance Complaint List urges anyone who encounters a crypto scam to report it immediately to:

  • Local law enforcement
  • The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the FBI in the United States
  • National financial regulators
  • Social media platforms where the scam appears

Victims should provide all available evidence, including messages, emails, transaction records, screenshots, and wallet addresses. Reporting scams helps protect others and supports efforts to dismantle these global criminal networks.

Victims of the scams listed above are encouraged to file reports by contacting:
