Overview
- Mogul allows players to act as studio heads, competing in fantasy-style tournaments by predicting box office performance, ratings, and awards.
- The platform, built on the Sui blockchain, is backed by Mysten Labs and Animoca Brands, with digital wallets for in-game currency and collectibles.
- Currently in beta with over 400,000 users on the waitlist, Mogul operates using virtual currency, with plans for paid upgrades and cash prizes in later phases.
- Mogul is part of MoviePass’s broader Web3 strategy and is set to integrate with its main app to expand user engagement and monetization opportunities.
- Regulatory classification of Mogul as a fantasy sports or prediction market platform remains uncertain, requiring potential state-by-state approvals in the U.S.
