The project is a verified legal sportsbook licensed in Tennessee and West Virginia, owned by the publicly traded VIP Play, Inc. (formerly KeyStar Corp). However, the submission quality is extremely poor, containing demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product') and lacking technical detail ('Sports' is not a technology). While the regulatory licenses indicate a baseline level of legitimacy, public financial filings reveal negligible or negative gaming revenue ($27k TTM), contradicting the implied scale. The project exists but struggles with meaningful traction in a saturated market.
