\"Famous<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In a recent Bloomberg interview, Osaka said that she has been discussing cryptocurrency with her agency\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> after learning about Dogecoin and its potential to “rise up.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Way before she spoke to her agent about it, the tennis giant credited Twitter's crypto environment as the primary source of her interest in Dogecoin investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the commencement of the U.S. Open tournament, Osaka entered the non-fungible token (NFT) sector by creating a collection of rare tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In April, Osaka and her sister, Mari Osaka, released a six-piece collection of one-of-a-kind NFTs<\/a>, which collectively sold for about $600,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The maximum purchase price for one NFT was $200,200, which makes it the most expensive NFT ever sold by a professional tennis player.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NFTs and other sector collab<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Soccer is another big sport that has maintained its interest in NFT. PSG fan tokens were recently produced by the Paris Saint-Germain soccer team<\/a>, which became popular after great star Lionel Messi joined the club. Messi's two-year PSG contract reportedly included PSG tokens as part of his compensation package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from sports, prominent corporations such as Budweiser and Visa have begun to acquire NFTs rather than creating their own tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Top entrepreneurs have also backed NFTs, including Mark Cuban, who invested in \u201cscalable AI infrastructure <\/a>for NFTs\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NFT-based CDs are also being sold by mainstream musicians like Kings of Leon, who have sold over $2 million in total. Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda was one of the first major label musicians to release an NFT single.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
