Lottery.com announced they acquired Sports.com. Registered in 1998 and looks to have been owned by a company called Achieve Investments Limited. Believe it or not Sports.com dropped 3 times before 1998.
The plan is to get into sports betting which has been picking up big time as more states approve sports betting.
This is an area I spend a lot of time on and working on a couple of projects. My state approved sports betting last year. New York is very close to getting a deal done on sports betting.
Recently Lottery.com entered into an agreement to become a public company.
