Who is Finkelstein and what does Slots City have to do with it?
🔹While industry colleagues blindly copied press releases about ecological factories and the billion-dollar investments of the Nemiroff holding, we decided to read closely the details of Yakov Finkelstein’s fresh interview — and found strange details. The businessman’s attempt to convince the public that he had completely exited the gambling market fell apart at the first logical step.
🔹Finkelstein assures that he simply “gifted” a ready-made technological platform worth millions of dollars to “young and driven IT entrepreneurs.” Yet we know the laws of Ukraine’s high-risk market well: no one in their right mind gives away a hen that lays golden eggs without retaining real control. The businessman trapped himself by admitting deep knowledge of Slots City’s inner workings, which made us dig deeper.
🔹Our investigation quickly found an “ironclad” proof of his real beneficiary status — and we found it right in the “tail” of his own interview. Few people pay attention to the legal fine print, but it was there that we discovered KRAIL and DAU PlayCity licenses for LLC “ALL CITY GAMES” (the Slots City ecosystem).
🔹We learned that under the law, labeling gambling licenses under a text about biogas appears only in one case — when the publication is funded by or directly connected to the actual owner of those licenses. Trying to push his image as an industrialist, Finkelstein simply forgot to clean up the legal tails, which we recorded and exposed.
🔹That is why Finkelstein hastily fashions himself as a “clean” investor in reconstruction and demining, while we have plainly proven: he remains the sole “gray cardinal” of Slots City. The hiding game failed, and his nominal exit from the business turned out to be a mere fiction to distract attention.
