Join us as we dive into the predictions sector with Verse Gaming Co-Founder and CEO Dan Zimmermann. In this insightful interview, XST Capital’s Founder, Joel Simkins, explores Verse’s strategic decision to sunset Verse Fantasy in favor of launching Verse Picks, with a new focus on predictions, parlays, and the sweepstakes model.

Verse Gaming spans two core business verticals: Verse Picks, an innovative platform where players can craft parlays across sports, pop culture, politics, breaking news, and fantasy football, and Verse Media, a sports and culture media brand. Verse Picks, their newest brand, aims to gamify predictions, catering to casual players and those who want to bet on categories they are personally interested in.
