With nearly 20% of legal bettors planning their first wager on the tournament, DraftKings’ prediction games are already buzzing, driving billions in trading volume. Their recent profitable quarter and stock rebound add momentum, especially as their new regulated exchange, Railbird, launches head-to-head with Kalshi and Robinhood—complete with Spanish-language support and a massive market lineup. While the World Cup won’t replace NFL revenue, it’s a high-stakes play to convert casual fans into loyal customers—and investors are watching closely to see if those signups hold up come September.
