A Ukraine-market casino that lost its legal standing under 2023 sanctions - not to be confused with the internationally-licensed Vulkan Vegas
Visit Vulkan Casino →Pros
Cons
- Lost its legal standing in Ukraine under 2023 gambling-sector sanctions - no longer operates legally there
- Conflicting ownership claims for the Ukraine-market entity (Konkueror LLC vs Maxim Krippa), unresolved
- Real risk of confusion with the separate, internationally-licensed 'Vulkan Vegas' brand
Our verdict
Vulkan Casino, as listed for the Ukraine market, lost its legal standing there under Ukraine's March 2023 gambling-sector sanctions - a presidential decree implementing the National Security and Defence Council's decision that named a list of affected gambling companies, with a sanctions period of 50 years. It is reported to no longer operate legally in Ukraine. We found conflicting ownership attributions for this specific Ukraine-market entity: Konkueror LLC (trademark holder, with founder Darlox Ltd) per one source, Maxim Krippa per another - an unresolved discrepancy we report directly. IMPORTANT: this Ukraine-market 'Vulkan Casino' is a DIFFERENT operator from the internationally-known 'Vulkan Vegas' brand (Brivio Limited, based in Cyprus, holding a genuine Curacao licence 8048/JAZ2012-009), which casino.guru reviews favorably overall with some verification/withdrawal-delay feedback - we do not conflate the two similarly-named brands. Given the loss of legal standing in Ukraine specifically, we recommend against using this brand there, and recommend verifying carefully which 'Vulkan'-branded casino you are dealing with before depositing anywhere.
