Overview
We first want to thank you, the community, for standing by us and your desire to see us build a real company in Thoroughbred Racing, Web3, & Fantasy Sports. We want to give a huge welcome to our new President and COO Ron Luniewski. Formerly CEO of Youbet.com and President of XpressBet, Ron is excited to be joining Silks to help us scale and deliver.
Our main focus of late has been on the Silks Portal and Race functionality. We have been working diligently with the Jockey Club to integrate their data into our platform. This has been a lengthy process and we are excited to be a centralized hub for all things thoroughbred racing. We are creating new ownership experiences, ways of tracking your athlete(s), and playing the game. Now that our marketing efforts have expanded, we are excited to be adding new features to help propel us into our next racing season.
