In February 2026, Oleg Gorokhovsky, co-founder of monobank, filed three applications for trademark registration with Ukrpatent: «Gorokhovsky», «Gorokhovsky Oleg» and «Oleg Gorokhovskyi».
All three applications were submitted on the same day — February 6 — and are currently under consideration.
The list of classes of goods and services in all three applications is identical and extremely broad — in fact, it covers most possible areas of activity in IT and finance:
Class 38 stands out separately with a direct link to Telegram channels — providing access, moderation, and publishing. This may indicate plans to develop one’s own media direction or monetize an existing audience.
Gorokhovsky has long been one of the most recognizable faces of Ukrainian fintech — he actively leads social networks, comments on the market and regularly appears in the media. Registering a personal brand as a trademark is a logical step for a person with such publicity, especially if something is planned that goes beyond the monobank.
