Daily Fantasy’s Days Of No Regulation Are Done

I have long held that the regulation of daily fantasy sports operations was coming — it was not a matter of if, but when regulations would be implemented on a federal and/or state-by-state level.  With the revelation that at least one DraftKings employee had access to data surrounding users’ picks and competed on rival FanDuel’s platform, the days of unregulated activity in the daily fantasy sports industry are coming to a close faster than most could have fathomed.  I posit that it will be a long-term positive result for the daily fantasy sports industry, but may cause some bumps in the road for the largest operators in the near future.
