Naomi Osaka will also receive an equity stake in FTX Trading Limited and will be paid in cryptocurrency.
At the Miami Open, Naomi Osaka will wear the FTX logo and will use her popularity to bring the female community to the FTX platform, cementing the FTX crypto exchange's position as the world's leading cryptocurrency exchange and leading more interest in digital assets of people into the Web3 future.
the CEO of FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, comments that:
"Just as FTX is at the forefront of crypto markets, we want to be at the forefront of social change. Our partnership with Naomi Osaka will further our goal of getting more diverse voices involved in the future of digital currency and Web3. I am excited to work with Naomi as we look to educate those groups and create a positive impact in the world."
More females participate in the crypto space and demonstrate good knowledge in this industry. Earlier this month, Crypto financial services firm BlockFi has released the third edition of its Real Talk quarterly survey.
Nearly one-third of women surveyed plan to buy cryptocurrencies in 2022, and 60% of respondents plan to purchase cryptocurrencies within the next three months.
