Underdog appoints Nick Lundgren as Chief Legal Officer. Former Crypto.com Chief Legal Officer and Prediction Markets CEO Joins Underdog as Company Continues Prediction Markets Expansion NEW YORK-(BUSINESS WIRE)-Underdog today appointed Nick Lundgren as Chief Legal Officer. Lundgren joins Underdog as the company continues to expand its prediction market offerings, including on its own exchange, following the acquisition of a Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) registered Designated Contract Market (DCM) and a Derivatives Clearing Organization (DCO). Underdog is also a registered Futures Commission Merchant (FCM), making it the first sports company with the complete prediction market license stack. Lundgren is the former Chief Legal Officer of Crypto.com and CEO/President of its CFTC-regulated division, where he certified the first sports entries in any U.S. prediction market and led the company to become the second-largest U.S. prediction market DCM, while acquiring and operating Crypto.com's DCM, DCO, and FCM licenses. Previously, he held roles at Perkins Coie LLP and Amazon, focused on crypto, fintech, and derivatives. "Nick has been one of the true leaders and innovators in our category, and we're psyched to have him at Underdog to help lead the continued growth of our business," said Underdog CEO and co-founder Jeremy Levine. "He has been a pioneer in this nascent space, and we're excited to continue building new and compelling experiences for sports fans with his expertise." "I've worked with every U.S. sports company live in prediction markets to date, and after working with Underdog on Crypto.com's platform, seeing them become the first sports enterprise with the full stack of CFTC licenses, I knew they were best equipped from a team, expertise and product standpoint to run away with the largest category in prediction markets - sports," said Lundgren. "And I knew I had to be there." In September 2025, Underdog became the first sports gaming operator to offer sports prediction markets in its app, via access to Crypto.com's exchange. In March, Underdog acquired a federally regulated derivatives exchange and clearinghouse from Aristotle Inc. Underdog's own exchange will allow customers to access sports event contracts and more. Underdog currently offers access to prediction markets as an intermediary to other exchanges, including Crypto.com and Kalshi, and the company will continue to expand its prediction offerings under its own exchange. About Underdog Underdog was founded in 2020 with the simple objective of making sports more fun. The company's core operating principle: There's so much more to be built for sports fans in America.

Underdog to expand prediction markets with new in-house offering. 10th March 2026 10:34 am Underdog is set to expand its prediction markets offering under its own exchange after acquiring Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) registered Aristotle Exchange. The fantasy sports operator has purchased Aristotle Exchange DCM and Aristotle Exchange DCO, which are a CFTC registered Designated Contract Market (DCM) and a Derivatives Clearing Organization (DCO), respectively. The acquisition enables Underdog to offer its own prediction market exchange, having launched sports prediction markets in its app last September through a partnership with Crypto.com. "We look forward to working with the CFTC to offer an exchange that brings even more options to enjoy sports to our customers," said Jeremy Levine, CEO and co-founder of Underdog. "We're in the early innings of what prediction markets can be, especially for sports fans. "We'll use this opportunity to bring the same relentless focus on innovation and experience that we've always brought to our customers. The reality is, prediction markets are primarily about sports and no company knows how to engage with sports fans and create products for sports fans better than Underdog." Underdog has pivoted to prediction markets after withdrawing its licence application ahead of Missouri's market opening in December, which was followed by its exit from North Carolina's sports betting market. Underdog is acquiring the two business from Aristotle Inc., which specialises in data mining voter data and also operates the PredictIt prediction markets platform on behalf of Victoria University of Wellington. The details of the transaction have not been disclosed.
