Not Another DFS Platform
AthX is fundamentally different. Here's why.
Traditional fantasy platforms profit when you lose. We profit when you trade. That single difference changes everything about how we build our platform.
The Problem with Traditional DFS
DraftKings and FanDuel take 10-15% rake from every prize pool before anyone wins a penny. Here's what that means mathematically:
You enter a contest
Platform takes rake immediately
Left in prize pool to split
Over time, this creates a mathematically losing game for the average player. The platform profits regardless of outcomes.
Add in whale players using optimization software, and casual fans don't stand a chance.
The AthX Solution
AthX charges 0.5-4% transaction fees instead of 10-15% rake. But that's not just about numbers—it changes the fundamental relationship:
We Profit When You Trade
We make money on transaction volume, not your losses. That means we're incentivized to help you succeed and keep trading.
Your Success = Our Success
Happy traders who build value come back. Users who feel exploited leave. Our business model aligns with your interests.

Common Questions
What makes AthX different from DraftKings or FanDuel?
AthX charges 0.5-4% transaction fees vs 10-15% rake on DFS. You trade against the market, not other players. There are no whales with optimization software dominating contests. Your portfolio compounds over time with dividends and bonuses.
Why are AthX fees so much lower than DFS?
Traditional DFS takes 10-15% of every prize pool before anyone wins. Over time, this mathematically ensures most players lose. AthX uses a fundamentally different model—we profit when you trade, not when you lose. This allows us to keep fees at 0.5-4%.
How does AthX prevent whale domination?
On DFS platforms, high-volume players use optimization software to dominate contests. On AthX, you trade against the market—not other players. Your success is based on your own research and trading decisions, not beating professional players.
Can I actually build long-term value on AthX?
Yes. Unlike DFS where each contest is independent, AthX portfolios compound over time. Eligible holdings earn monthly dividends (1%), diverse portfolios earn bonuses (0.25-0.5%), and smart early-season decisions can pay off for months.
