Tennis champion Naomi Osaka on Cryptocurrencies

Naomi Osaka exclusive interview fashion herald top fashion magazine lucknow delhi mumbai

The 23-year-old Grand Slam champion is a known investor in cryptocurrencies now favoring mostly dogecoin.
Her interest in the popular investment option was spurred by all the noise around meme currency Dogecoin on her Twitter feed some time back.
Osaka came to limelight when she rapidly streaked through the ranks of the tennis world–winning a WTA tour match at the age of 16. She had made it to the WTA top 50 by 2016 and was also titled the ‘Newcomer of the Year’ the same year.

“I was actually just talking with my agent about cryptocurrencies,” Osaka said in an interview to Bloomberg. “I know that online, everything is getting bigger. I remember reading about Dogecoin … there’s going to be something new and interesting that’s going to pop up.”

The 23-year-old Grand Slam champion doubled down on non-fungible tokens (NFT) as she launched the second bout of NFT offering, a Preseason Access Pass Collection which will grant the holders VIP access to Autograph’s first limited-edition Naomi Osaka.

A well nown NFT platform,Autograph is brings together brands and big names from sports, entertainment and culture to create digital collection which raised $600,000 for Naomi’s foundation, in April this year.

In April, Osaka along with her sister had dropped a six-piece collection of art called “The Colors of Naomi Osaka” which raised nearly The Play Academy.

“As athletes, our career isn’t that long, and so I just like being very smart with it,” Osaka said. “I like when my agent tells me there’s opportunities. And in a weird way, I like to fail a little bit because it makes you understand what didn’t work and why.”

Between 2018 and 2020, Osaka progressed further. She won four Grand Slams during this period and also clinched the top spot on the WTA singles rankings.

She has also invested in salad chain Sweetgreen and the North Carolina Courage—a women’s professional soccer team, making her one of the few young tennis players putting out their own money.She has also been in the news for speaking out on mental health.
