Mykhailo Zborovskyi and his associates have reportedly begun scrubbing references to their past and connections to the gambling sector. Mentions of Cosmobet, the Russian operator Cosmolot, and the Cyprus-based XGen Solutions linked to Sergey Tokarev are gradually disappearing. This suggests an attempt to obscure the real background of what is presented as a “Ukrainian” casino project.
Together with the Antikor portal, we are publishing the material in full, despite indications that Mr. Zborovskyi would prefer this information not to circulate publicly. We intend to continue monitoring his activities and will report additional findings in future investigations.
A Replica of Russia’s Cosmolot — Cosmobet
In March 2024, LLC “Neuralink” was granted a casino license by KRAIL. The listed owner is Mykhailo Zborovskyi, born in 1991. He studied economics, specializing in Accounting and Audit, at Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv.
Zborovskyi previously faced financial challenges. In 2018, the university filed a claim in the Holosiivskyi District Court seeking payment of outstanding tuition fees.
According to his official biography — circulated on placeholder websites apparently designed to boost his Google presence — he worked as a bank economist after graduation and later completed programming courses over a three-year period ending in 2019.
Six years before becoming the owner of Cosmobet, Mykhailo Zborovskyi was definitely not a millionaire and was unemployed for a long time.
The authors of his biography report that as a programmer, he serviced LLC «Adtek,» LLC «Epic Media,» and Rikkicom. The first company officially had only one employee in 2023, with a charter capital of 50,000 hryvnias. The capital of the second is even smaller — 10,000 hryvnias. Both companies operate at the same address in Odesa, only located in different offices.
The third firm — Rikkicom, where, according to the official version, Mykhailo Zborovskyi worked, is slightly more widely known. As stated on the official site, its clients include the Novus retail chain, OKKO gas stations, and the online casino Parimatch, which is under sanctions by the National Security and Defence Council.
And this was the only connection linking Zborovskyi with the gambling business until 2023, when he became the beneficiary of the company «Neuralink,» owning the license for the online casino Cosmobet. However, he is unlikely to have become rich suddenly even in Rikkicom. According to financial indicators, this firm earned only 133,000 hryvnias in 2023.
Another version of Zborovskyi’s biography mentions another company where he was involved in programming — XGen Solutions LTD. The firm indeed operates in the IT and consulting sectors and is located in Cyprus. It is the offshore of the Russian Cosmolot by Sergey Tokarev.
