Alexis Ohanian revealed his first earnings and company concept, which occurred to him during the 1990s, when there was a surge of sports cards in the NFT world.
Even now, Alexis is interested in investing in NFTs. He is an early investor in several of the crypto investing firms that have recently formed. Ohanian feels that this is the finest future investment that any businessman can make.
In a recent interview with Forbes, Alexis revealed his first earnings. He remembered his reaction to the first $4 he earned, which led to a hooray moment in his life!
He said, “I’d see a card worth $4 and I was like, ‘Oh my god, I just made a ton of money.’ I hadn’t thought through the fact that if there are a million of these cards, that devalues the supply.”
Alexis was pretty happy with his $4 investment back then. He felt proud and believed he had made a lot of money at that time.
So by going ahead and collecting the most rookie cards, Alexis created his own greatest personal investment, named after Serena Williams.
Alexis confessed that in 2021 he began collecting Serena Williams cards on the spur of the moment. After a year and a half, he established his own massive personal investment by amassing the world's largest collection of Williams cards.
Not only that, but he confessed that he occasionally would present the digital collector cards to Serena, which is the sweetest gesture by Alexis.
