DraftKings is a sports betting company. It allowing users to enter a wide variety of different fantasy and non-fantasy sport competitions. In 2021 the platform had 8+ million customers and was live in 12 U.S. states, there is good potential to enter 10+ other states where sports betting has recently been made legal.

In 2021 DraftKings announced they plan on launching an NFT collectables marketplace where they will create sports and entertainment-themed collectibles. They are further hoping to make the purchase of NFTs simpler by allowing customers to buy in USD rather than cryptocurrency. Whilst it is a high risk, entering the NFT market could be massively profitable for the company.
