U.S. Agriculture Secretary Rawlings: More announcements related to increased fertilizer shipments will be released.March 22 – The Australian government stated on the 22nd that although fuel imports have been impacted by the conflict with Iran, supplies remain sufficient and there are no plans for rationing. Regarding the panic buying of gasoline in a few areas, the government urged the public to refuel rationally. Australian Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen said in a television interview that as of the 21st, the countrys reserves of petrol, diesel, and aviation fuel were sufficient for 38 days, 30 days, and 30 days respectively, and fuel supplies remained "strong."Market news: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have made large-scale purchases of mortgage-backed securities.March 22 - Iranian President Ayatollah Peschizian posted on social media this evening (March 22), stating that "attempts to wipe Iran off the map are a desperate trampling on the will of a nation that makes history. Threats and intimidation will only strengthen Irans unity. The Strait of Hormuz is open to everyone except those who violate Iranian territory. Iran will resolutely confront these insane threats on the battlefield."On March 22, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessenter defended the U.S. and Israels attacks on Iranian infrastructure, claiming that "sometimes you have to escalate to de-escalate." This came shortly after Trump gave Iran 48 hours to open the Strait of Hormuz and threatened to destroy its power plants. Bessenter defended Trumps remarks, saying it was "the only language the Iranians understand." Bessenter also addressed Kharg Island, a key hub for Iranian oil production, claiming that "all options are being considered," including sending U.S. troops to control the island. Bessenter further defended the decision to ease some sanctions on Iran, claiming it was a "soft approach" to the Iranians—using their own oil to retaliate against them.

With a $20 Million Investment, eToro Will Enter The Blue-Chip NFT Space

eToro has announced the formation of a $20 million fund to invest in blue-chip NFTs.


The money will be invested via eToro.art, the company's new platform.


Following the fund's inception, the trading business claims it will be "one of the largest NFT collectors internationally."


eToro, an Israeli social trading and multi-asset brokerage firm, has announced the formation of a $20 million non-fungible token (NFT) fund.

Blue-chip NFT Craze

Million-dollar JPEGs would have been laughable a decade ago. Even Nevertheless, everyone now wants an animated monkey NFT that could turn them into a billionaire. Blue-chip NFTs have carved out a place for themselves in this way.


A 'blue chip' firm is one that is considered a safe investment in the conventional financial market.


Blue-chip NFTs are those that have surged in price, such as Cryptopunks or BAYC. Market observers have begun to refer to these projects as "blue-chip NFTs," implying that they will maintain their high values for a long period.


With NFT fever on the rise, every collector is looking for a project that may turn out to be a blue-chip NFT. Finding the correct project early on, however, is not straightforward. eToro announced the opening of its $20 million fund on Thursday, with the goal of purchasing blue-chip NFTs and supporting developing ventures in the area.

eToro’s Entry in NFTs

According to an eToro news statement, the money will be invested in the company's newly created 'eToro.art' platform. The platform wants to deliver the NFT industry's 'joy and community' to its 27 million members.


Furthermore, eToro promises that once its assets are completely deployed, it will be "one of the world's top NFT collectors." NFTs from projects such as Bored Ape Yacht Club, CryptoPunks, and World of Women, among others, are already available on the eToro.art platform.


"As a firm with one eye continually on 'what's next,' eToro sees great promise in the metaverse and a spectrum of new digital assets," said Yoni Assia, Co-Founder and CEO of eToro.


Recently, more well-known businesses have been flocking to NFTs. Notably, high-profile personalities have followed Visa's example following its acquisition of CryptoPunk in August 2021. In February, KPMG Canada purchased a World of Women NFT. Simultaneously, Universal Music Group formed an NFT band centered on a Bored Ape figurehead.
