I've heard that word so many times in the last year that it stopped meaning anything. And yet here we are.
That's the reality of online businesses in 2026 - cycles are shorter, signals are louder, and the gap between "this is the plan" and "this is what the market is actually telling us" closes faster than it ever has. You either listen or you fall behind.
A year ago we set out to build a vertically integrated iGaming group - operator, media, game studio, all under one roof. Today we've sold @menacedotcom, the operator, and it'll relaunch under a different brand. Menace Media stays with us and is spinning out as a standalone business.
It's a strange thing to write. We assembled a serious team, built real product, learned a lot. But part of building is being honest about where the energy actually wants to go - and over the last six months it became clear that our media business had quietly become the most powerful thing we'd built.
The numbers told the story before we did:
- 1.08B impressions in April alone
- 1.99B impressions across March and April combined
- 9 sports verticals live, more in incubation
- Engaged by Dana White, Jon Jones, Sergio Ramos. Co-created with John Terry, Roberto Carlos, Diogo Dalot
- Official UFC media accreditation
- Featured across AOL, Yahoo, The Independent, MSN
The operator goes to new owners and a new brand. Menace Media spins out as a standalone business, working with the wider market - no operator of our own, no conflicts, no divided attention.
And I'm thrilled to share that @Thrill_com is our flagship media partner - the first operator going live across the Menace network as we open up to external clients. @ByronThrill is one of the top entrepreneurs in iGaming, and I'm genuinely proud and humbled to be building this chapter with him and his team. The guys have built an amazing product - in my view, the best in crypto right now - and their vision for brand marketing is deeply aligned with ours.
And this is where I want to talk to the players directly.
If you played on Menace - thank you, genuinely. You were part of building something real. And if you're looking for where to go next, my honest recommendation is @Thrill_com. Insane originals, fast payouts, the team is killing it. That's where I'd be playing. Not because they're our partner - they're our partner because I actually believe in what they're building.
To the team who built Menace as an operator - thank you. You shipped a product most groups twice your size couldn't have shipped. To our partners, investors, athletes, and creators who backed us along the way - thank you for the trust.
Menace Media is open for business. More soon.
bought roland garros semi tickets way in advance
the dream: sinner / alcaraz vs someone
the backup: ok at least novak
the reality: alcaraz injured, sinner lost in round 2 up 5-1
novak was the BEST case. damn it 🎾💀
Someone is impersonating me.
My only real Telegram is @menacedima (same as this handle). I never DM first, never offer bonuses, never ask for your account info. Anyone doing that is a scammer - block & report.
Verify me on LinkedIn if in doubt. Be careful out there.
Let's set the record straight. This account has been inactive since March, and the balance was zero - this player withdrew all his funds back in March. There was nothing to hold, because there was nothing there. When we asked for proof of the balance he's claiming, what came back actually confirmed the opposite: multiple accounts and abuse of our ambassador referral program, which is a direct terms violation. That's what triggered the ban.
For context: Menace has paid out enormous sums to real players, both before and after the company changed hands.
What we won't do is reward people who try to game the system and then go public hoping noise gets them paid. Every genuine player gets paid. Case closed.
there's an email listed on the site that processes every wd which might've gotten stuck and not been processed yet - the new team is replying there
i'm no longer part of this business, but i'm still helping with wds and personally helped process every wd that was stuck for any reason
proofs please - until you send any proofs here or in my dms, it's all bs
thanks

@WFuryx appreciate this man, genuinely. if you know - you know. some stuff in the last few weeks wasn't in our hands the way it should've been, and that's a hard pill. always here if you want to talk

@allsetmax@willventures@BettingStartups offshore built the product, onshore has the licenses - nobody has both. that's the gap
