  • Lessons from operating under the sweepstakes model and navigating shifting state regulations

  • His perspective on DraftKings, Kalshi, and the future of CFTC-approved prediction exchanges

  • Building a lean, agile startup team — and the value of staying alive through constant pivots

  • The long-term vision: becoming a top-tier prediction operator within five years
