Is New Jersey The Best Place To Start A US iGaming Business

I have been looking at the U.S. market lately and New Jersey seems like the most established state for online casinos. However, I am worried about the technical competition and the strict reporting rules there. Is it still worth entering such a crowded space in 2026? What kind of platform features are absolute must-haves to stay compliant with the DGE while still keeping players happy with fast payouts?
