About Bijan Tehrani
Ed Craven and Bijan Tehrani founded and run Stake.com, believed to be the largest crypto-backed online casino in the world.
Stake.com generated $2.6 billion in revenue last year, despite crypto gambling being unavailable in the United States, United Kingdom and much of Europe.
The founders have reinvested its profits into aggressive marketing, putting Stake's name on Formula 1 cars, English Premier League jerseys, UFC octagons and a new livestreaming service.
During the pandemic, Stake started paying content creators on Twitch to livestream themselves gambling, transforming the business from $100 million in revenue in 2020 to over $2 billion in 2022.
After Twitch banned Stake from advertising on its platform due to a lack of consumer protections, Craven and Tehrani launched their own competing livestream service, Kick.
