BioMatrix Unveils Radical Blueprint for Human-Centric AI Economy at a16z Tech Week’s AI & Finance Conference 2025

Humanity takes center stage as BioMatrix drops its vision for an AI-driven economy that doesn’t treat people like data points.

The Pitch: AI That Works For Us (For Once)

No more opaque algorithms or extractive surveillance—BioMatrix promises an AI ecosystem where humans aren’t just the product. Their framework reportedly flips the script, prioritizing user sovereignty over corporate data harvesting.

Why Finance Should Care (But Probably Won’t)

While Wall Street scrambles to monetize AI-driven trading signals, BioMatrix’s approach could actually force the industry to consider ethics. Cynics note this might dent quarterly profits—so expect hedge funds to ‘accidentally’ misplace the whitepaper.

The Bottom Line

If even half their vision materializes, we might finally get AI that serves people instead of VC portfolios. Until then? Watch bankers nod politely before funneling another billion into algo-driven high-frequency trading.

BioMatrix, the Web3 project redefining digital identity and universal basic income through biometric verification, took the stage on June 6 at the AI & Finance Conference 2025, hosted at Civic Hall as part of the official a16z Tech Week lineup.

The AI & Finance Conference brought together over 1,500 attendees, including top builders, investors, and researchers across artificial intelligence, financial technology, blockchain, and quantitative modeling. As one of the most anticipated anchor events of this year’s a16z Tech Week, it featured DEEP dives into generative AI, frontier financial models, and the infrastructure shaping the next decade of digital systems.

BioMatrix was honored to be invited as a featured speaker, offering a timely reminder that in an age of booming AI, we must build people-centric systems.

While much of the conversation centered on speed, scale, and automation, BioMatrix stood for human-first innovation: applying AI responsibly, verifying identity with dignity, and ensuring that technology enhances—rather than replaces—what it means to be human.

In a time where artificial intelligence is rapidly automating industries and displacing the value of human labor, BioMatrix delivers a counterbalance: a decentralized system where simply being human is enough to participate in the economy.

Founder Arthur Qin delivered a keynote titled “Restoring Human Value in the Age of AI,” highlighting how BioMatrix transforms identity into value through a proprietary biometric system called Proof of You (PoY). In just one year, the project has scaled from 102 to over 4.5 million verified users, with its liquid token iPoY reaching a $1 billion market cap within two weeks of launch.

“You shouldn’t need to prove your worth just to deserve a place in the economy,” said Arthur. “At BioMatrix, your face is your wallet, and your existence is your value.”

With a 60-year token issuance plan and a vision to onboard 1 billion BioMatrix Citizens by the end of 2028, the company is positioning itself as a long-term infrastructure LAYER for a fairer, AI-enhanced digital economy.

BioMatrix is dedicated to enhancing the lives of all BioMatrix Citizens through AI and Blockchain technology. Along with tailored services and secure data solutions, BioMatrix builds an AIBusiness Matrix encompassing Game, Media, Social, Retail, and Rental sectors, leveraging Proof of You AI Token utility to ensure fairness, security, and inclusion for all.
