Deven Hurt: Building the Sports Stock Market
Deven Hurt's background in sports includes work in cybersecurity for Nike and the NBA.
He's currently the CEO and co-founder of PredictionStrike – the world's first sports stock market, allowing fans to buy and sell shares of their favorite pro athletes.
The company raised its first VC funding in 2021 and has processed over $4.5M of transactions on the platform to date.
In this conversation, I discussed with Deven the past and present of PredictionStrike, the differences, and similarities between the stock market, sports betting, and PredictionStrike (risk profile, intrinsic value, expected returns, etc.), his plans, projects, and projections for sports investing, and so much more.
