Offshore
Refers to the broader unregulated international sports betting market, often used as a benchmark for true market pricing.
Like international currency markets setting exchange rates that local banks then follow with markup.
Why it matters
Offshore markets set the standard for efficient pricing because they accept sharp action without limiting winners.
How DMP uses this
DMP uses offshore sharp book pricing as the foundation of its consensus odds and fair value calculations.
Common mistake
Dismissing offshore data because it is unregulated -- the pricing is more accurate precisely because sharps are welcome.
