Dizraptor is an investment scheme that offers pre-IPO investments to accredited investors through its website and a dedicated app. Dizraptor, operated through a Delaware entity, was founded by those Russians who launched the crypto-based trading and investment platform Utex a/k/a United Traders via an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) in 2017. Dizraptor is based on a similar concept as Utex, but cryptos no longer play a role. Here is our compliance check.

Compliance Check
Dizpraptor is an investment scheme founded and controlled by the Russian citizens Roman Vishnevskiy, Anatoly Radchenko, and Dmitry Belousov. Thus, it can be stated that Dizraptor is operated through a Delaware entity, but the beneficial owners are Russians.
Dizraptor appears to be a successor project to the Utex/United Traders crypto-based trading and investment scheme launched in the 2017 crypto hype. Already with Utex, one could make pre-IPO investments via cryptocurrencies. With Dizraptor, on the other hand, accredited investors (Eligible Purchasers) can now only invest in FIAT. That said, Dizraptor can be seen as “Utex minus crypto.”
To qualify, you must meet one of the criteria: your annual income for each of the prior two years should exceed $200,000 ($300,000 for joint income), your net worth should be at least $1M (excluding primary residence) or you should hold at least one license of FINRA’s Series 7, 65 or 82.
Definition of Eligible Purchasers
Read our Utex/United Traders Compliance Check here.
In our compliance check on 17 July 2023, the following findings were made:
- The Client Agreement on the Dizraptor website is concluded by the investor on the offshore platform with Dizraptor, Inc, an entity registered in Delaware, United States.
- We could register with Dizraptor as residents of any jurisdiction without problems.
- Dizraptor is directed only to accredited investors as defined by U.S. laws.
- Investments can only be made after the KYC check, which runs online via Sumsub. Before investing, you must also prove your status as an accredited investor (Eligible Purchaser).
We found no criticisms in Dizraptor‘s compliance and would add them to our Green Compliance list. However, Russian nationals’ control and their connection to the crypto-based trading and investment scheme Utex/United Traders is not properly disclosed. Therefore, we place Dizraptor on our Orange Compliance list for the time being.
