The gambling ads are non stop. I keep seeing them everywhere. So over it.

Seriously

How many of those things do we really need?

Between the sports betting and trading stuff, we now have the following for the major players:

  • DraftKings
  • FanDuel
  • PrizePicks
  • Underdog
  • Kalshi
  • Polymarket
  • Novig
