Gainr Protocol is an AI-powered, compliance-first sports betting and prediction markets infrastructure built on Solana. It delivers fair, transparent, and instant on-chain settlement across a suite of decentralized applications (Back.bet, Price.bet, Pick.bet, XOX.bet). The protocol eliminates house conflict via a riskless peer-to-pool parimutuel engine, embeds deep AI for predictive analytics and personalization, and solves industry liquidity challenges through a treasury-funded AMM Liquidity Engine.
Sports betting markets are event-driven and highly sensitive to late-breaking information. Gainr’s peer-to-pool mechanics and treasury-funded AMM require a senior leader to design quantitative risk frameworks that keep pools balanced, protect the treasury, and maintain fair, dynamic odds across multiple outcomes. This role ensures systemic stability, compliance, and provable fairness at scale.
