🚨 ProphetX. Approved. Nationwide.

Stay tuned for more updates as we bring our product to the masses next week.

[Jake Benzaquen @jakebenzaq]

Fastest DCM & DCO approval in @CFTC history.

This one feels good.

I cannot thank the @PlayProphetX team enough. We would not be here without everyone who supported us since day 1. Today is 8 years in the making.

Our new platform will be live next week, and as the Knicks say, job's not finished.

JUST IN: We have obtained @CFTC approval to operate America's first federally regulated sports-native prediction market!
