Have you noticed that behind the hottest products recently, there are actually a group of post-90s entrepreneurs?
Take prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi, as well as AI programming tools like Cursor and Lovable— their founding teams are all under 30. This is not a coincidence but a signal— the new generation of Web3 and AI entrepreneurs are rewriting the market landscape with real products.
Last year, a ranking of young entrepreneurs in the crypto space circulated widely and shocked many people at the time. Looking back now, many of the people on that list have long proven what "post-90s" means through their projects. From the prediction market boom to the explosive popularity of AI tools, this group of young people has reordered the entire ecosystem in less than a year.
What’s most interesting is that they are not doing concept hype but real product innovation. Polymarket enables people to make genuine predictions on-chain, Kalshi offers compliant prediction market services, and Cursor and Lovable have completely changed the way programming is done. These are applications that have been validated by users, not just empty projects.
Being young definitely has its advantages—sensitivity to new technologies, intuitive understanding of market pain points, and that unconventional innovative thinking. Watching their achievements in the innovation track, you understand why some people treat this list as a reference for future investment and research.
