Let's start from the beginning. Back in the 2013 according to this Lithuanian article he beat up the singer Milisandra from music group "Patruliai" as a result of burst of anger over a parking space (yes, you've read that correctly).
This has been reported by a reputable news source 15min.lt which doesn't write any rumors: https://www.15min.lt/vardai/naujiena/lietuva/verslininko-tado-karoso-sunus-jonas-sumuse-patrulio-algirdo-radzeviciaus-zmona-milisandra-1050-293915

According to Goldfishfund's own website he is one of the 3 people listed as belonging to their team. One of them being his father (Tadas Karosas) https://goldfishfund.com/gfteam/
The "Managing director" Tomas Martūnas is linked directly to FoodoutGroup which was under the wing (being financed) by the same Goldfishfund. Moreover, Dorado ICO is part of that very same FoodoutGroup

Goldfish Fund invests in early stage start-ups with great products and teams striding to build world-class companies.
Now Blockchain Open Fund (blockchainopen.fund) "project" is basically the same group of those 3 Goldfishfund 3 people operating under different name as can be reasoned from their own article:

Blockchain Open Fund - Venture Capital Fund in Frontier Markets
Spin out of Goldfish Fund, an investment vehicle which specializes in investing into ICOs and blockchain startups. In 6 months since starting invested into +10 successful ICOS which have raised +100M USD from crypto investors. www.blockchainopen.fund
They (Blockchain Open Fund) say they "invested into +10 successful ICOS which have raised +100M USD from crypto investors".
However what they don't say is that those projects went nowhere with token prices plummeting down by ~ 99% leaving investors with nothing. And those "+100M"?
The big part of these funds pressumably went directly into their own pockets as majority of those ICOs are now no better than dead with no progress or development and no investment. They have now removed all of the ICO names from their website. There would be no reason to do that if they were "successful ICOs".
Older version of that website can still be easily traced down: https://web.archive.org/web/20180829132712/http://www.blockchainopen.fund/ All of those mentioned ICOs have lost substantial amount of value of their token after ICO, most of them nearing 0.
Granted just because he invested in those ICOs it doesn't make them "evil" (even though objectively the prospects don't look bright for none of them) as he's not part of the team of all those ICOs. However the one where he was directly and actively involved in and even attaching his personal name to email updates was obviously Dorado ("Jonas from Dorado" sender of each email update). Token price went from ~$0.11 to $0.0002 after hitting exchange.

Ever since the end of Dorado ICO there has been countless of empty promises and delays, but even the token burn which was supposedly happen straight after ICO (which ended mid-May 2018) is yet to be completed. And very likely won't happen at all since even the article explaining the burn was deleted from their medium account.
Here's the copy: http://mae.soundestlink.com/view/5b5739c3597ed7082fb25ca0/5aeae6268d1bdbf0f69609fc
The Wooopit's aquisition was supposedly in accordance as per the expansion to Poland. Unsurpisingly the whole deal went down and Karosas blamed it all on Erfan claiming he had nothing to do with Dorado at all despite his title "Co-founder / Chief Innovations & Logistics Officer" at Dorado https://icorating.com/people/erfan-hesam-25637
Furthermore the video in Dorado YouTube channel where Erfan himself was talking about developing and testing Dorado drones which unsurpsisingly was of course taken down. Along with quite a few of their medium.com articles including the one above.

Following the repeatedly delayed and eventually unkept promises about token burn, payouts which were supposed to be only to ICO investors (as per the whitepaper), then stating that ICO investors will not have any special treatment and eventually not paying them at all to anyone, unkept promises about new exchange "soon" which again went for months and eventually nothing came out of it...
... following all of that the Foodout ceases their operations. The same one which they praised and on which they based the supposed Dorado success. Read below posts for more info as to why it was ceased. https://www.15min.lt/verslas/naujiena/bendroves/maisto-pristatymo-sistema-foodout-lt-nebeveikia-663-1066138

Now Dorado still has their whitepaper hosted in their website (https://www.dorado.tech/docs/Dorado-White-Paper.pdf)
It has some ridiculous claims regarding expansion and there is no longer a "board of members" as the one you see in the whitepaper. Most of the people have nothing to do with Dorado anymore nor do they want to. Check their LinkedIN profiles which were previously filled with those Dorado entries.
In the previous version of Dorado website (during the ICO) you can not only see the board members listed there - the section which was removed entirely now, but also at the bottom of the page the investors are mentioned not only Godfish Fund (which is being run by those 3 key figures linked to Dorado) but also Chernovetskyi Group. In their own website we were able to find an article from November mentioning Foodut http://cig.vc/en/new/okolo-60-mln-evropejcev-zakazyvajut-dostavku-edy-onlajn---obzor-cig

There is more to it Chernovetskyi Investment Group. According to DELFI [news reporting company established in 2011 very actively operating in Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia (those are easily verifiable facts) and is one of the most popular to go places in those countries as a reputable source] CIG's managing director Mr. Stepan Chernovetskyi was caught for money money laundering (10Mln EUR).
Moreover, his father being a former Kiev's mayor https://pep.org.ua/en/person/6451 is accused of dissaparence of 2.8 Billion EUR from Ukrainian's budget and is currently a "Domestic Politically Exposed Person" and according to the website above wanted by an Ukrainian police.

Detailed information on family members and close associates, declared assets, liabilities and bank accounts, corporate ownership.
In November (same month that Foodout ceased their operations) Russia announced sanctions against Ukraine. They published a list of names and organizations which also included "Chernovetskyi Investment Group" and "Goldfish Fund". Apparently they held their funds in Russia. Well those funds are no longer accessible as Russia has frozen all the associated bank accounts in their country. So now it is only logical to assume that this was the reason for the abrupt end of operations for Foodout.
