OnlyFounders introduces a platform letting anyone be a ‘Founder for a Day’, reshaping how startups are tested, validated, and funded in Web3.
OnlyFounders has launched OnlyFounders.fun, a platform that allows anyone to become a “Founder for a Day,” creating a new pathway for startup incubation in Web3.
The model replaces traditional pitch-based accelerators with a live market testing ground, enabling founders to prove potential through real execution.
The programme runs over 60 days, during which participants can launch between one and three projects on the market. By measuring traction rather than presentations, the platform helps investors identify top talent based on visibility and performance.
Founded in August 2024 by Mohammad (Moe) Iman, who brings two decades of global leadership experience across finance, sports, and Web3, OnlyFounders has already attracted more than 220 active founders and a waitlist of 28,000.
The project has secured partnerships with over 90 Web3 protocols and 40 industry leaders who contribute to its Academy and mentoring network.
The incubation ecosystem operates on two tiers. The first layer, OnlyFounders.fun, provides a permissionless environment where entrepreneurs can test and tokenise ideas with minimal barriers to entry. Gamified features such as leaderboards and daily launches create a competitive, engaging experience for up to 100 founders per day.
This second stage incorporates AI-driven matching, secure escrow contracts, and coaching tools to ensure founders with proven traction and commitment gain access to capital and resources.
The model creates a continuous feedback loop where aspiring entrepreneurs can experiment in a low-risk setting while investors gain access to deal flow backed by real-world traction.
“OnlyFounders.fun is a place where people can test themselves, while investors gain access
to ongoing deal flow with visible traction. It forces the real question: do you like the idea of
being a founder, or are you ready to be one?” said Moe, CEO of OnlyFounders.
Looking ahead, OnlyFounders plans to scale OnlyFounders.fun to accommodate 500 daily founders, onboard over 300,000 verified investors into OnlyFounders.xyz, and launch its full mainnet fundraising engine by mid-2026.
