Post by: Elena_Rodriguez on February 14, 2019, 02:29:11 AM
Draftkings review (https://coinpedia.org/earning-site/draftkings/)  All in one guide on Trending gambling site

DraftKings is a Massachusetts based company established in 2012 by Jason Robins, Paul Liberman, Matthew Kalish. The  CEO of the company is Jason Robins. The platform allows users across the globe to enter into weekly and daily fantasy sports contests.

The platform claims that everything they offer is 100% legit, and their basic marketing angle is that they provide short-term contests when compared to other leagues. Additionally, they’re widely considered one of the most reputable online fantasy sports destinations.

Since Major League Baseball became the first American pro sports organization to invest in DraftKings in 2013, the company has gone on to explode onto the national scene. DraftKings has quickly become the largest daily fantasy sports provider in the United States (http://United States).

Why are you saying the link is broken? Maybe it was fixed already, but the website loaded okay for me:
https://i.imgur.com/077JE6g.png
I don't know how popular this Draftkings casino is, but they do have 94k subscribers on Youtube, their videos have good quality and they have some partners. This is some fantasy football website where one can bet on players or something of that sort.
Op, is the website planning to accept cryptos as payment? Because in the review you posted there's no such payment option, while this forum is clearly dedicated to projects at least somehow related to cryptocurrencies. Any comments on this matter?

I love soccer fantasy and I usually never miss out every weekend playing it for fun. When I get time, I will check out on the site and see if it's worth it. I just wish crypto payment was an option too.

Location is the main thing why i cant participate too but as said this is really worthy to be tried on if you arent restricted.
The reason why most people on this forum havent familiar with this one since it has nothing to correlate with crypto.
Only sports-enthusiast/lover/bettor would most likely be aware.

I usually use DraftKings for fiat betting whenever I'm not betting with the crypto I have as it's a US-based site and the tournaments on the site are usually bustling and bigger than most crypto fantasy sites out on the net currently. DraftKings does block IPs from certain states in the USA due to certain regulations that prevent the site from correctly operating in certain jurisdictions, but it's still one of the biggest fantasy betting names out there and the site's also very intuitive to use. Sucks that they don't accept crypto, but still a great site nevertheless.

They didn't explicit address that, but this is what I managed to extract from their ToS:
Quote
You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age to open an account, participate in contests, or win prizes offered by the Website. In jurisdictions, territories, and locations where the minimum age for permissible use of the Website is greater than eighteen (18) years old, you must meet the age requirement in your local jurisdiction or territory. You must be at least nineteen (19) years of age at time of account creation if you are a legal resident of Alabama or Nebraska or twenty-one (21) years of age if you are a legal resident of Massachusetts. Legal residents physically located in any of the fifty (50) states and Washington, DC, excluding Alabama, Arizona, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada and Washington (the “Excluded States”) are eligible to open an account and participate in contests offered by the Website. Legal residents of the Excluded States are eligible to open and maintain accounts on the Website for use only in games that do not offer prizes. However, legal residents of Alabama or Idaho who are physically located outside of the Excluded States are eligible to deposit funds, enter contests and earn prizes offered by the Website. Legal residents of Canada are eligible to open an account and participate in contests offered by the Website.

In a nutshell, US players are allowed to join with some restrictions.

It is my first time to hear about DraftKings. When I visit the article and read about DraftKings, they have 5 methods to deposit but in the withdraw, I only see it's only 2 method which is Paypal and Check. They don't use bitcoin as deposit and withdraw so I think if they can add bitcoin as the payment, it will attract more visitor to come. And when I visit on the DraftKings website, I see they have big prizes and I am sure they attract more gamblers to play.

I have recently read through wikipedia article related to them that draftkings was established since 2012 and they are trustable daily fantasy sports which available for almost all of kind sports such as football, NBA, tennis or MMA and we never heard about them before because draftkings was not available to crypto users because as you says they only accept paypal and check as part of their service

Why are you saying the link is broken?

It seems the OP fixed it. I was broken as you can see on my quited section.

Draftkings has always been a thing , I'm not into it but it's really popular
I remember seeing ads for them everywhere except here , they are popular on youtube as well
if you are into sports overall you should try it guys , I just can't participate with them due to my location but they are great
This sums up everything however I also thought it was a new site because I never heard about them before.

Yeah, Earlier I had heard about Draftkings. They were quite popular in other promotional aspects.
They had a lot many ads going all through the internet.
But As SyGambler said,he didn't saw any ads here, me too haven't seen any ads of them here to be very honest.
By the way it's also not available in my country.
Thanks for sharing the article OP.

It just makes it easier for people to find other people. I know it sounds weird but people are not amazingly friendly with each other right now, from social media to online presence people are getting more and more distant from each other face to face and get more familiar through screens instead of actually talking. That is why online world is more social than real world now.

Considering the talking and networking became more online and why fantasy world became more online as well. On a regular fantasy you need to get together with a group of friends and build a fantasy draft league and go from there, with draftkings you do not need that, you can join in on some random strangers and just go with that and even tough you don't know the people you can just contact via trades and all that.

Basically, takes out the personalized stuff in other fantasy leagues and makes it more online and can be played with strangers which is why its awesome.

Honestly, never heard of Draftkings. But the concept seems interesting. Making your own team and earning points/money for selecting the correct players who perform well in that round. I will check if I can participate from my county. Thanks for sharing this OP  ;)

Maybe that's why I don't hear anything about them. But I see that they have many sports list that we can use to bets. But unfortunately, the site is not accepting bitcoin, and I hope in the future, they can add bitcoin for a new payment. Maybe later I will send them an email asking about the chance to add bitcoin besides the existing payment method.
I have a problem with my PayPal ;D
And I don't use PayPal for a long time ago.

That is clearly the reason why it's not trending on crypto as they won't accept bitcoin as another options to deposit or a payment method which will be good if they only add it in their website. It would be a great hit since they have lots of sports that the gamblers can bet like NBA, Soccer and much more.

If they will integrate bitcoin as one of the payment methods, they will gain more gamblers. They might be thinking of the volatility price of crypto but this might be a hit for crypto gamblers out .

I am sure they can gather more gamblers to come to their site because bitcoin now become popular than a few years ago. Besides that, many gambling websites are trying to integrate their payment with bitcoin besides using the credit card and debit card and also Paypal. Once they can integrate with bitcoin, I think they can use the other coins too which is the price is not too high compared to bitcoin price.

That isn't more trending as mentioned in the Op. It has got its own sum of userbase, and most people were fiat users in my opinion. As it is US based, the regulatory compliance can vary according to the location from which we access. This will create withdrawal issues and all, so better is to go with top listed  trusted cryptocurrency accepted gambling websites that we've got.

Your comment catched my attention. If it's worth the game, and is popular though I never heard about draftking before, then I think 'em gonna try it. What are the options for payment if it is not in crypto? Dollar? Paypal?

You can find more about DraftKings on that sites on the first page, and if you are curious about DraftKings, maybe you can visit their websites on
Code:

But I think you need to use VPN because maybe your ISP will block your connection.

The offers are quite amazing but still it just on paper it has to be proven and tested

Great history in gambling since 2012 that is draftkings is one of the oldest online gaming site in America, is the company base in America and do the site also offer sport booking and how about the game odd. To be honest with you this is my first time of hearing about this gambling site's I will really love to read other users review about the site those who have try it out.

I don't know why did OP put a thread here about Draftking since of the gamblers here are into bitcoin casino sportsbook site and Draftkings is not accepting bitcoin as part of their payment system.

We all love to play and bet over cryptocurrency for a fast transaction but with the screenshot above me the withdrawal is only PayPal and check, I don't think that gamblers here will go to that site even though its been out in the market and has made a name for themselves.


Title: Re: Why Is Draftkings The Most Trending Thing Now?
Post by: traderethereum on April 18, 2019, 02:29:44 PM
The website still not use bitcoin for the bets although many of us suggest that. It seems the OP is not updating the payment method and don't add cryptocurrency as the payment method, so he still uses a debit/credit card and PayPal which is riskier to use as the deposit.
Before he is accepting crypto in his site, we cannot test the site, and we will skip the site, I guess.

I don't know why Draftkings can be popular, maybe because they made an investment by sponsoring one of the baseball sports teams and they also have a youtube channel with a lot of subscribers so they can be a popular among gamblers especially they provide fantasy sports gambling services that much favored by people.

draftkings was trending in 2015 when they spent about a 100million in ads, they ran a billion dollar promo or something, it's def not trending now, im pretty sure it died as quick as it came.

these noobs should atleast put a little effort in misleading people, this site noone knows in a gambling section "is trending" lol

I do not think anything that brings people together in a way and achieve to get their first users will ever fail. Its always like that for chat messages for example, whatsapp, telegram, slack, discord and all other similar stuff, same for social media (do I really need to give examples). Now, draftkings is making one thing different but don't mistake it because its still a social media, only thing they do differently is you are with people who are playing fantasy draft.

Normally, what do you need to do to play a fantasy league? You need to have friends or find people online to do that, what does draftking achieve? Bringing people who want to play in a fantasy league together to actually have that circle of people together and let them play. That is why they are so trending.
