Underdog

Today we announced that we have purchased Aristotle Exchange DCM, Inc. and Aristotle Exchange DCO, Inc., which are a Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) registered Designated Contract Market (DCM) and a Derivatives Clearing Organization (DCO), respectively. Underdog is built on the simple thesis that there is so much more to be built for sports fans in America. This acquisition enables Underdog to offer our own federally-compliant prediction market exchange, giving customers even more ways to express their opinions on sports and beyond. We're excited to keep building in this next chapter 🚀 Read more about the acquisition details ⤵️ https://lnkd.in/gpRZWFEv

January campus stops: Penn State University → Texas A&M University The talent we met at these schools was incredible: engineering students who are just as passionate about sports as they are about building great tech. The conversations, questions, and energy at both campuses made it clear the intersection we’re hiring for is real - and exciting. Missed us on campus? Don’t sweat it. We’re always looking for exceptional early career engineers ready to build unforgettable products and shape the future of sports tech.
