Kingnet Acquired Type 4 and Type 9 Licenses: Continuously Broadening Business Boundaries and Advancing Global Expansion Layout ACN Newswire

Kingnet Acquired Type 4 and Type 9 Licenses: Continuously Broadening Business Boundaries and Advancing Global Expansion Layout

Introduction: Accelerating progress in virtual asset management business in games and global expansion layout.HONG KONG, July 14, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Recently, Spruce Technology HK Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kingnet, was officially granted Type 4 (advising on securities) and Type 9 (asset management) licenses by the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) in Hong Kong.A previous similar event that attracted widespread attention in Chinese mainland occurred in December last year, when Zhang Yiming, co-founder of ByteDance, acquired a Hong Kong Type 9 license through a subsidiary "Cool River Venture HK Limited".Geographically, Hong Kong is expediting the process to become a global Web3.0 hub. For Kingnet, which is in an accelerated phase of gaming business globalization while aggressively deploying cutting-edge sectors such as metaverse and Web3.0, these two licenses will serve as pivotal fulcrum for its ecological upgrading: the company can not only attract more international partners to jointly develop AI-driven game development tools and PUGC platforms, but also carry out virtual asset generation in games, trading, and asset management businesses in full regulatory compliance, thereby bridging the "creativity-assets-finance" loop to build a trustable global digital economic ecosystem.License Is Not the DestinationForge A More Imaginative "Virtual Asset Manager In Games" Kingnet has long been actively exploring the deep integration of cutting-edge technologies and capital operations in emerging fields such as Web3.0 and metaverse. As early as 2023, Kingnet disclosed that it could support product integration with Web3.0 from a technical framework perspective, and would maintain sustained attention to the evolution of Web3.0 technologies.Additionally, Kingnet has proactively established a digital asset platform called "KINGNET CHAIN", dedicated to aggregating diverse creators and gaming brands through blockchain technology in conjunction with Web3.0, metaverse and artificial intelligence to construct a digital art marketing system, establish digital brand IDs, and create a rich and diversified metaverse content ecosystem. Up to now, "KINGNET CHAIN" has released multiple original IPs and brand collaboration digital artworks. By employing a sales model that integrates "digital assets with real economy", it promotes a deep convergence between digital economy and real economy.On the opening day of the 2024 Paris Olympics, the Olympic-themed digital assets series featuring Kingnet's mascot "K Xiao Huang" was exclusively launched in limited quantities on the "KINGNET CHAIN", with the customized interactive digital asset mini-game "Olympic 'Huang' Family Supporters" simultaneously released. Users can earn exclusive and unique digital asset rewards through gameplay participation, and these digital assets will be intrinsically linked to platform privileges to pioneer a new pathway for the mass adoption and application of the digital assets.According to market data, "KINGNET CHAIN" has reached a milestone of nearly 200,000 identity-authenticated registered users. In the future, it can assist global market-oriented manufacturers in achieving overseas game digital asset distribution, form a dual-track model of "domestic regulatory-compliant distribution + multi-chain overseas circulation", and provide a one-stop solution spanning from technical infrastructure to trading scenarios for globalization of gaming assets.Prior to Kingnet's entry, representative overseas gaming companies had already validated the feasibility of this approach by obtaining financial licenses for layout of the virtual asset management business: Hong Kong's Web3 frontrunner Animoca Brands constructed a full-chain management system encompassing metaverse asset distribution and trading by acquiring relevant compliance qualifications. Mythical Games, founded by the former Activision Blizzard core team, has also established itself as a benchmark in the field of blockchain gaming for establishing closed-loop virtual asset value circulation through licensed compliance by implementing secure player asset ownership and trading leveraging the "invisible blockchain technology" under a compliant framework in flagship titles like Blankos Block Party.With the acquisition of Type 4 and Type 9 licenses, Kingnet may further broaden its business boundaries in relevant fields such as virtual social interaction and blockchain gaming. By generating assets through gaming behaviors and activating assets via financial licenses, the company is forming a closed-loop ecosystem, thereby evolving into a "More Imaginative Kingnet".Based on Existing Overseas Layout ExperienceBuild an Open and Credible Global PUGC PlatformFrom another perspective, Kingnet's globalization strategy had demonstrated tangible results even prior to acquiring SFC Type 4 and Type 9 licenses in Hong Kong.From the product side, the company has proactively seized overseas market opportunities, proactively deployed global distribution, targeted the global market, established in-depth partnerships with numerous overseas channels, and achieved remarkable results in overseas market expansion. It is understood that newly launched games in 2025, including MU Immortal, Party Beasts, etc., have topped overseas gaming charts immediately upon release, demonstrating formidable growth potential.The sequential launch of multiple new products is expected to further improve Kingnet's product matrix and gradually form differentiated competitiveness, thereby further expanding its market share and driving tiered user base growth. As reflected in its performance, Kingnet's overseas revenue reached RMB 375 million in 2024, achieving a year-on-year growth of up to 221.48%.To support these ambitions, Kingnet has launched Kingnet AI , an AI-Web3 game collaboration platform developed by SmileCobra Studio , a Singapore-based Web3 gaming studio and Kingnet’s exclusive strategic partner. Kingnet AI features a visual, no-code AI creation engine that allows developers and creators to build blockchain-based games from scratch, automate content generation, and deploy multi-chain assets seamlessly. Kingnet AI has already established strategic partnerships with TON, Solana,BNB Chain, and Alibaba Cloud.Combined with a series of actions of the company in game globalization, proprietary AI-powered development platform, etc., it can be speculated that the company will or may also create an AI-powered end-to-end game development toolkit and a PUGC player user platform overseas. The overseas user platform will target player communities by delivering AI-powered gaming products with diversified gameplay mechanics and innovative contents. With dual SFC financial licenses, the platform provides virtual economy systems where overseas developers can autonomously generate in-game tokens through the platform's system or games on the platform to assist game developers in refining the economic systems.From this perspective, Kingnet is hopeful to build a truly open and credible global PUGC platform and empower innovations in digital contents and economic systems based on its experience accumulated in overseas game operation & distribution over the past period and a deeper understanding of Web3.0 innovation models in overseas markets.

导语:加速游戏虚拟资产管理业务进程和全球化布局。香港,2025年7月14日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 日前,恺英网络旗下全资子公司Spruce Technology HK Limited正式获香港证券及期货事务监察委员会(SFC)颁发第4类(就证券提供意见)及第9类(提供资产管理)牌照。上一个在内地引发广泛关注的类似事件,是去年12月字节跳动联合创始人张一鸣通过旗下"Cool River Venture HK Limited"斩获香港9号牌照。从地域来看,香港正加速推动成为全球Web3.0中心。对正处于游戏业务全球化加速期,且积极布局元宇宙、Web3.0等前沿赛道的恺英网络而言,这两个牌照将成为其生态升级的核心支点:公司不仅能吸引更多国际合作伙伴共同开发AI驱动的游戏开发工具与PUGC平台,更能合规开展游戏虚拟资产生成、交易及资产管理业务,从而打通"创意-资产-金融"闭环,构建可信赖的全球化数字经济生态。牌照不是终点 打造更具想象力的"游戏虚拟资产管理者"恺英网络长期以来一直积极探索Web3.0、元宇宙等新兴领域的前沿技术与资本运作深度融合。早在2023年,恺英网络就曾透露,其从技术框架上可支持产品接入Web3.0,并将持续关注Web3.0技术的发展。此外,恺英网络还早早搭建了数字资产平台「拾元立方」,致力于通过区块链技术并结合Web3.0、元宇宙和人工智能,汇集多方创作者和游戏品牌方,构建数字艺术品营销体系,建立数字品牌形象,打造丰富多元的元宇宙内容生态。截至目前,「拾元立方」已发布了多款原创IP和品牌联动数字艺术品,以"数字资产与实体经济"相结合的发售方式,促进数字经济与实体经济深度融合。2024年巴黎奥运会首日,恺英网络公司吉祥物"K小皇"奥运系列数字资产就在「拾元立方」独家限量首发,定制数字资产互动小游戏「奥运"皇"家助威团」同步上线。用户可以通过参与游戏获得专属独特的数字资产奖励,数字资产将绑定平台权益,为数字资产的普及和应用开辟了新的道路。根据市场数据,「拾元立方」现已拥有实名注册用户近20万,未来能够帮助出海厂商实现游戏数字资产海外发行,形成"国内合规发行+海外多链流通"的双轨模式,为游戏资产全球化提供从技术底层到交易场景的一站式解决方案。在恺英网络之前,海外代表性游戏公司已通过获取金融牌照布局虚拟资产管理业务,验证了这一路径的可行性:香港 Web3 头部企业 Animoca Brands 通过获取相关合规资质,构建了覆盖元宇宙资产发行、交易的全链条管理体系;由动视暴雪前核心团队创立的 Mythical Games,亦凭借合规框架下的"隐形化区块链技术",在《Blankos Block Party》等代表作中实现玩家资产的安全持有与交易,成为区块链游戏领域通过牌照合规打通虚拟资产价值闭环的标杆。随着4号及9号牌照的获得,恺英网络或将进一步拓宽在虚拟社交、区块链游戏等相关领域的业务边界,用游戏行为产生资产,用金融牌照盘活资产,闭环生态形成,从而成为一个"更具想象力的恺英"。基于已有的海外布局经验 构建开放、可信的全球化PUGC平台从另一个角度来看,在本次获得香港SFC第4类及第9类牌照前,恺英网络的全球化战略就已显成效。从产品端来看,积极把握海外市场机遇,积极布局全球化发行,放眼全球市场,与众多海外渠道建立了深入合作关系,在海外市场拓展方面的成绩颇为亮眼。据了解,2025年新游《MU Immortal》《派对不兽控》等游戏均在上线伊始即登顶海外地区游戏榜单,成长实力不容小觑。多款新品的相继推出,有望进一步完善恺英网络的产品矩阵并逐渐形成差异化竞争力,从而进一步扩大市场份额,推动用户规模实现阶梯式增长。反映在业绩表现上,2024年恺英网络海外营收3.75亿元,同比增长多达221.48%。就在6月底,恺英网络向市场推出了一款专为游戏行业打造的AI全流程开发平台"SOON"。该平台凭借对多模态大模型能力的深度整合,实现了从美术资产生成到代码部署全流程的自动化操作,极大地缩短了传统游戏开发周期,充分赋能游戏行业向全自动AI转型。结合这家公司在游戏出海和自研AI开发平台等一系列动作,可以猜测,公司将在海外或也会打造AI全流程游戏开发工具和PUGC玩家用户平台,海外用户平台面向玩家群体,提供多玩法、多创意的AI游戏产品。在SFC两个金融牌照的加持下,平台提供虚拟经济系统,海外开发者可以通过平台系统或平台上的游戏自己生成游戏代币,帮助游戏开发者完善经济系统。从这个角度来看,基于过去一段时间在海外游戏运营发行积累的经验,以及海外市场对Web3.0创新模式更加深刻的理解,恺英网络有望构建一个真正开放、可信的全球化PUGC平台,赋能数字内容与经济系统的创新。 Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

特朗普抢了足球冠军的风头,遭到球迷嘘声 “`

(SeaPRwire) - 当英国足球队 Chelsea 周日在新泽西州举起国际足联俱乐部世界杯奖杯时,球队的明星球员 Cole Palmer 在 3-0 战胜 Paris Saint-Germain 的比赛中攻入两球,并被评为赛事最佳球员,但他的身影却被挡住了。 Donald Trump 站在 Cole Palmer 面前,面带微笑地鼓掌,而国际足联主席 Gianni Infantino 则努力不挡住球队的庆祝活动。 “我有点困惑,” Palmer 后来 。 “我知道他会来,但我不知道他会站在我们举起奖杯的看台上。” 在这个尴尬的时刻,Chelsea 队长 Reece James Trump,“你要走了吗?” 后来,在回答记者提问时,James 总统出席比赛一事,“这可能突显了这项赛事的规模之大,”但他同时指出,他没想到 Trump 会一直站在最前面。“他们之前告诉我,他会颁发奖杯然后离开舞台。我以为他会离开舞台,但他想留下来。” Infantino 离开队伍,以便 Palmer 和其他人可以享受聚光灯,但在 和 获得他们想要的拍照机会之前没有离开。 Trump 的嘘声突显了比赛的争议 Trump 出席 MetLife Stadium 的比赛,既是为了庆祝美国,也是为了庆祝这项运动,因为俱乐部世界杯决赛的举办地与明年世界杯决赛的举办地相同。 但 Chelsea 和 PSG 的球迷似乎搁置了他们的敌对情绪,团结起来反对 Trump,在整个晚上多次向他发出嘘声,包括 在比赛前和 之后。 Trump 在 和 中大多不受欢迎,而 Infantino 在 2016 年 ,因为当时已经 ,此后一直被指责无视 ,多年来一直在努力将足球带到美国。 早在 2018 年,就在 Trump 的椭圆形办公室里发现了一个 ,同年,Infantino 宣布美国将与邻国加拿大和墨西哥共同举办 2026 年国际锦标赛。今年早些时候,在 Infantino 于 3 月将 赠送给 Trump 后,俱乐部世界杯奖杯也在总统的办公桌上停留了一段时间。据 称,这座金色的 奖杯可能被 用于重大声明,“从对伊朗的核警告到庆祝与英国的贸易协议”。Infantino 上周表示,国际足联在纽约市的 Trump Tower 设立了一个办事处。 俱乐部世界杯于 2023 年 到美国,并 为明年的世界杯做准备,虽然 Infantino 称其为“”,但许多人并不同意。这项俱乐部赛事经过大幅 后,很大程度上被人们对 和 的担忧所掩盖。“我们可能收到了一些合理的批评,”Infantino 在周六的新闻发布会上 。 “我们可以考虑很多因素,但这将在以后进行。” Trump 于 3 月宣布成立一个联邦工作组,为 2026 年世界杯做准备,但这并没有消除世界各地许多人的担忧,尤其是在 、 和 方面。 当 3 月被问及明年锦标赛的北美共同主办国之间甚至存在紧张关系时,Trump ,“紧张是好事。这会使比赛更加精彩。” Trump 在美国拥抱“足球” 虽然许多美国 长期以来不喜欢 ,但 Trump 一直以拥抱 而闻名。右翼媒体机构 Washington Free Beacon 发表了一篇 ,揭露了这位当时的共和党总统候选人在高中时踢过足球。 “大多数爱国美国人在九岁左右就停止踢足球了,因为它很逊,而且奖励软弱。它在墨西哥也很受欢迎,”Free Beacon 解释说。“足球比赛通常是低得分的比赛,而且与绝大多数实际体育比赛不同,允许以平局结束。而且经常如此。经常向戏剧性倒地的球员授予任意球。球场上大多数花哨的男人都不允许使用他们的手,这是一个非常重要且有能力的身体部位。国际比赛模仿了 Barack Obama 的全球愿景,即美国“只是另一个国家”,并且乐于获得对阵多哥的零比零平局。男子国家队已被外国人入侵。这些是足球从根本上不符合美国精神的几个原因。” 但尽管许多美国保守派人士对此持反感态度,但 Trump 一再表示对这项运动感兴趣,他说他的儿子 Barron 对此非常热心。“这令人兴奋。我的儿子喜欢足球,他喜欢看世界杯,”Trump 。 “即使你不是足球迷,这也很令人兴奋。我有点足球迷,但我没有太多时间。” 当一位记者在周日俱乐部世界杯比赛后问他是否会考虑将美国的 soccer 更名为“football”(这是大多数其他国家对这项流行运动的称呼,但也是美国人称呼 Trump 称之为“,”的比赛的称呼)时,美国总统 :“我认为我们可以这样做。” 其他政府官员也受到抨击 Trump 不是周末唯一受到抨击的人物。 在周日的比赛中,他和 Infantino 与几位政府官员一同出现在中场豪华包厢中,其中包括司法部长 Pam Bondi,她因处理被定罪的性犯罪者和被指控的性贩运者 Jeffrey Epstein 的案件而受到许多人的批评,包括 Trump 的著名右翼支持者,Epstein 于 2019 年去世,引发了 Bondi 的司法部 的阴谋论。 Trump 在 中为 Bondi 辩护,此前曾有人呼吁她辞职或被解雇,他在 中似乎与司法部的备忘录相矛盾,该备忘录称没有其他关于 Epstein 的文件需要发布。“为什么我们要宣传由 Obama、Crooked Hillary、Comey、Brennan 以及 Biden 政府的失败者和罪犯撰写的文件……他们制造了 Epstein 文件,”Trump 写道。“让 Pam Bondi 完成她的工作——她很棒!……让我们保持这种状态,不要把时间和精力浪费在 Jeffrey Epstein 身上,一个没有人关心的人。” 在其他地方,副总统 J.D. Vance 和他的家人在加利福尼亚州 Disneyland 度假时,也受到了 的呼喊和嘘声。“希望你享受你的家庭时光,@JDVance。你正在拆散的家庭肯定不会,” 有人 在一条 中说——指的是 Trump 政府的 ,包括在加利福尼亚州的一次 军事化 ——Vance 对此 :“玩得很开心,谢谢。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。 ```
