Benzinga

By James Blacker, Benzinga Fantasy sports has developed into a $30 billion-per-year industry, with millions of players around the world drawn to the thrill of the game and the potential to win big rewards. According to Straits Research, the global fantasy sports market was valued at $28.23 billion in 2023 and is estimated to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 14.1% to reach $92.52 billion by 2032. Within this flourishing market, fantasy trading platform BullRush is carving out a space by combining the excitement of fantasy sports with trading in a gamified platform. The Thrill Of Fantasy Trading Traditional fantasy sports platforms involve managing sports teams, such as in the Premier League, NBA or MLB. BullRush is putting its own twist on this idea by making you the manager of your own simulated trading portfolio. While the trades may be simulated, the adrenaline of seeing your portfolio fluctuate is anything but. Traders can play single-round games or bracket-style tournaments, testing their strategies against fellow traders in real-time markets. The top traders in each event earn more than just bragging rights, with cash prizes and other rewards up for grabs – offering an incentive to level up your trading game. While regular fantasy sports sites require successful participants to have an in-depth knowledge of the sport, including its teams and players, BullRush rewards those who excel in market analysis and developing profitable trading strategies. Whether you are a long-time trader or new to the markets, BullRush offers a platform where you can show off your trading skills to the rest of the community. Beyond trading in the markets, BullRush offers various other games to keep players engaged.

A Large Market Opportunity The fantasy sports industry is booming, with one of the biggest platforms, Fantasy Premier League, attracting more than 11 million players. This enormous scale highlights the potential for growth within the market, particularly for innovative platforms like BullRush, which are carving out their own niche within the industry. By tapping into the existing popularity of fantasy sports, BullRush could be well-positioned to attract not only existing fantasy sports fans but also newcomers who are interested in financial markets. With the industry already valued at almost $30 billion per year and growing, BullRush’s platform, which launches officially on September 9, is getting into the industry at the right time. Have You Got What It Takes? Whether you want to improve your trading, share strategies with other traders or simply have fun with trading games and challenges, BullRush has you covered.

Top U.S. Sportsbooks Lost Out on $160.7 Million in Handle Last NFL Season, According to Latest Report from Sports Odds Intelligence Firm Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics, a sports odds intelligence firm providing competitive sports odds data and insight to the sports betting industry, released their latest report on the 2023-2024 NFL season today. The analysis found four out of the five top sportsbooks in the U.S. potentially lost over $160.7 million of revenue last NFL season due to extended suspension times and poor pricing strategies. Bettormetrics’ analysis of last season’s NFL games found that BetMGM and Bet365 were suspended in-game and not taking live wagers on average 5-10% more each game than the market leaders. Suspension is when a sportsbook periodically shuts down betting lines in a sporting event to readjust the odds based on activity within the event, while uptime is the amount of time they are accepting live wagers during the game. DraftKings averaged 96.1% uptime last season, while Bet365 averaged only 85.5% uptime – leading to a potential loss of $4.6 million. With the American Gaming Association estimating that betting on the NFL will surge by 30% in 2024 to $35 billion, this means that over $220 million will potentially be lost by tier 1 operators over the coming season. “DraftKings is clearly the team to beat when it comes to NFL betting,” said Robert Urwin, Bettormetrics’ co-founder and CEO. “With the most amount of uptime during NFL games and least amount of time suspended in isolation compared to the other bookmakers, DraftKings has a grip on the most critical betting season in the U.S. FanDuel is close behind and could make up the distance with a few tweaks in their suspension and trading strategies.” Bettormetrics’ Trading Analytics Platform (TAP) aggregates trading performance data so bookmakers gain insight into the performance of their competitors and their own trading desk, and in turn make changes to increase revenues and profitability. “It’s staggering to see the difference in uptime and therefore potential lost revenue between four of the top sportsbooks leaders in the U.S.,” said Sabin Brooks, Bettormetrics’ Chief Revenue Officer. “Without the proper suspension strategy, it’s extremely difficult for BetMGM and Bet365 to begin to catch up to FanDuel and DraftKings. As we begin the 2024-2025 NFL season, there is a real opportunity to close some of the gap if those two bookmakers can optimize their uptime and trading performance.” Bettormetrics is an innovative company providing competitive sports odds intelligence and insight to the sports betting industry. Bettormetrics’s Trading Analytics Platform is a SAAS product supporting sportsbook trading desks with cutting edge insight and analysis on the entire event life cycle, helping sportsbooks, data suppliers and B2B platforms gain an edge on competitors and ensure no profits are left on the table.

Prescribing The Future: How MangoRx Is Shaking Up Telemedicine With A Fresh Platform

Benzinga

By Anthony Termini, Benzinga Since Covid-19, telemedicine has been expanding significantly, with 44% of physicians using it at least weekly and 40% daily in the U.S. in 2023. The industry is seen by some as a new frontier for patient education and access to medicine and care. The DEA Opens The Digital Door To The Telemedicine Industry Before the pandemic, the primary way a patient would get a drug prescription was through an in-person visit with a doctor. The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) loosened those restrictions, allowing physicians to prescribe “controlled medications” over the phone and via video conference. That’s been good for companies in the direct-to-consumer telehealth industry. One of the players in this business is MangoRx or Mangoceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MGRX), which develops a variety of men's health and wellness products and services. Working with Surescripts, which helps coordinate all the parties in the prescription process, MangoRx recently transitioned its telemedicine platform to a newly developed DEA-approved telemedicine operating system. The new system allows MangoRx’s third-party doctor network to prescribe and offer controlled substances. These include Prime Protocol by MangoRx, powered by Kyzatrex, an Oral Testosterone Replacement Therapy and other hormone replacement treatments. According to Jacob Cohen, CEO and co-founder of MangoRx, the company is dedicated to “revolutionizing patient care,” and the new system enhances patient management by “offering seamless doctor visits, prescription auto-refills, and overall health management.” MangoRx is joined in the telehealth space by companies like Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS), a San Francisco-based telehealth company; Maximus Tribe, a compound pharmaceuticals company that also offers coaching and is based in Santa Monica, California; and Nu Image Medical, a Tampa, Florida-based company that sells weight loss, hormone replacement, sexual health, and general wellness products. Cohen argues, however, that MangoRx is setting a new benchmark for excellence in telemedicine. The company believes that the steps it is taking create meaningful competitive advantages over other companies in the space. MangoRx’s Digital Leap Shortens Time To Market MangoRx, which currently offers therapy options for erectile dysfunction, hair growth and hormone replacement, intends to use the new operating system to roll out new weight loss treatment options. These include an oral dissolvable GLP-1 tablet that includes Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, the ingredients in some of the most popular prescription weight loss medicines. The company’s new operating system helps it accelerate the ability to introduce other new product lines, the first of which is the dissolvable tablet they have branded as Slim and Trim. This brand will help MangoRx capitalize on the significant demand for GLP-1 weight loss treatments for both men and women. MangoRx expects these products will be available to patients before the end of the third quarter and that this new addition will help it to substantially grow revenue moving forward. The company says its new operating system will enable it to respond quickly to market needs and marks an important milestone for MangoRx, representing a significant advancement in its capabilities. Amanda Hammer, COO of MangoRx, says that the company has a “commitment to regulatory compliance and innovation” and that the new operating system’s cutting-edge technology puts it in a position to continue “revolutionizing patient care in the telemedicine industry.” MangoRx notes that the system is fully HIPAA-compliant to ensure that all operations adhere to stringent regulatory standards. The new system includes robust security measures to protect patient data and maintain the highest levels of confidentiality. The system upgrade accompanies a redesigned website with an improved user interface to optimize the customer experience and enhance workflows. The combination creates real-time data tracking and seamless integration that enhance operational efficiency and improve patient engagement. Featured photo by LinkedIn Sales Solutions on Unsplash.
