JAKARTA - Bernard Arnault, one of the richest entrepreneurs in the world, has abundant wealth from 75 luxury brands including Louis Vuitton, Tiffany, and Tag Heuer, a luxury yacht called Symphony, a private island in the Bahamas, and also an NFT collection. This may come as a surprise considering that Arnault previously showed skepticism about Non-Fungible Token digital art or NFT.

In a conversation with his former adviser and chief digital officer at LVMH, Ian Rogers, Arnault revealed his NFT collection. Rogers himself now serves as chief experience officer at Ledger, a crypto storage device and NFT. Now he is working on the Ledger Stage wallet which will be released soon.

In the conversation, Rogers expressed his belief that Arnault had a private NFT collection. Although previously Arnault seemed less interested in the technology, his two sons were actually very interested.

Alexandre Arnault once showed interest by wearing a gem-coated Cryptopunk necklace from Tiffany, while her brother, Fredric Arnault, CEO of Tag Heuer, showed his enthusiasm for Web3 technology by displaying the NFT feature on the luxury watch brand.

Based on Blockworks reports, senior Arnault was not very active in sharing his opinion on NFT technology, but he now seems to be starting to be interested. Rogers confirmed that Arnault had shown him his OpenSea page and provided an overview of his NFT collection.

In the Aarthi and Sriram podcast, Rogers answered questions from the host about the possibility of Arnault owning a digital wallet and buying some of the public's unknown NFTs. Rogers answered with certainty, "There is no doubt. He has shown it to me voluntarily, on his own OpenSea page."

Arnault and his family are known as people who value art and creativity. Their personal collection of art has more than 1,000 modern and contemporary works of art, and they often support art and cultural initiatives. Therefore, Arnault's decision to start collecting NFT can be considered as a form of appreciation for modern art that utilizes digital technology.

It is hoped that the presence of Arnault and his family in the world of NFT can spark interest from collectors and other entrepreneurs to start looking at the potential of the technology. Although it is not known with certainty what is in his NFT collection, the presence of Bernard Arnault in the NFT world has shown that this technology is indeed increasingly global and attracts the attention of various groups.
