Noah Dummett, the founder of Shuffle, put up his goals for 2026 on X. Acquiring Stake Casino stands out as one of them.
My goals for 2026:
– Shuffle second biggest crypto casino in the world
– Make at least 2 millionaires from the SHFL lottery
– Play a $1M game of UNO
– Acquire Stake (stretch goal)— Noah (@noahdummett) January 15, 2026
The Big Four Goals
First up, Noah wants Shuffle to become the second-biggest crypto casino in the world. That’s a pretty straightforward business goal, though getting there won’t be easy. Shuffle has grown fast since launching, but climbing to number two means overtaking some major players in the crypto gambling space.
The lottery part, making two millionaires. Shuffle pushes that lottery a lot. Most entries come from free tickets awarded to users who stake SHFL tokens. More stake means more tickets, so winners are usually the big holders, the whales. Not so much the regular folks for whom that million would be genuinely life-changing.
Then there’s playing a $1 million UNO game. This is a dig at Goated, a competitor that has UNO as one of their original games. Noah’s basically saying whatever they do, he’ll do bigger and flashier.
The real headline though is Noah’s fourth goal: acquiring Stake. Stake has the biggest name in crypto casinos with revenue and recognition nobody else can touch. Buying them would cost billions Shuffle doesn’t have. This is obviously more fantasy than reality, but announcing it gets people talking and shows Noah thinks big, even if it’s not serious.
When Airdrop?
The missing piece is SHFL airdrop 3. The first two were big deals, giving tokens to active players. Everyone grinds on Shuffle waiting for another, but Noah said nothing on it. That silence suggests it might not be coming anytime soon.
The Stake acquisition probably won’t happen either. The realistic goals are becoming number two and creating lottery millionaires. The rest ranges from promotional stunts to fantasy.
Noah gonna acquire Stake with what money? SHFL tokens? 😂😂😂 Eddie gonna laugh him out the building
Stake makes more in a week than Shuffle makes in a year
Noah gonna walk into Stake HQ like ‘hey Eddie I got $50 and a dream let’s make this happen
stretch goal should be fixing the site before attempting takeovers but what do I know
my stretch goal is Noah remembering airdrop 3 exists but we all got unrealistic dreams I guess
Noah really competing with Elon for most unhinged CEO tweets of 2026 and it’s only January
