eSports, e-Sports and esports - plus the Pitch Deck Hall of Fame
Federation led esports is legitimately a different world, often with different spelling - should they just be let be?

Evening all,
A very busy week all round. A lot going on in the regulatory world, a lot going on in the gambling world.
Stake still taking the proverbial, Skin betting sites typing in full sentences arguing with each other on Twitter, Crypto esports betting sites endorsed by the industry’s finest yet again being exposed for fraudulent activity.
Few pieces in the making not yet fully ready, so here’s a more relaxed piece and thought-provoking question for you.
Esports, eSports, e-Sports. Who cares about the spelling anymore? Often using alternate are the Federation side of esports. The Global eSport Federation or the Norwegian Trade Esports Travel Association. Maybe the Retail Association for eSports Mouse Designers in Denmark.
There was that Olympics competition which didn’t attract much viewership. To the shock of not many people. It afforded some youngsters the opportunity to compete in games they love and win medals though, so that’s kind of cool. But are they leading regulators down a dodgy road? Are they stealing potential funding from elsewhere? In a world of private IP holders and profit-making entities does it care?
Comment and let us know!
Anyway it just reminds me of Kent Kim’s Omnipotent Esports Gods or whatever it was called.
Please enjoy and revel in this esports classic. An unrivalled pitch deck.
