On 5 November, the ruling coalition agreed in principle to replace the flat 22% rate on GGR with progressive taxation. A 2025 bill from Tomas Tomilinas proposed four bands rising to 37% for the largest operators.

📈@Kalshi's app went down for thousands of users on Sunday. The day before, Kalshi had traded more than $5 billion in contracts.

Bet25 has launched a sportsbook that drops the bookmaker margin altogether and earns its revenue from a flat 5% service fee on the stake instead. It charges the fee once per slip, however many legs the slip carries, which takes compounding margin off parlays entirely.
It's a direct challenge to the margin-based pricing most sportsbooks use. Bet25 says the fee model is permanent, not a launch promotion, and Vegangster provides the technology behind it. 🛠️

💸 @DraftKings is betting big on Predictions. It just cut 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance to $175M–$275M (from $700M–$900M) because Predictions will drag group results by $650M–$700M this year.
Core sportsbook + iGaming still guided to $875M–$925M. The company is using roughly three-quarters of that to fund the new product. 1.6M+ customers already in. 2026 cohort expected to pay back in ~20 months.
