Hello to web3 enthusiasts, today's data might be of your interest.
Together with the team, I've selected the top ~1,500 projects from Coinmarketcap and Crunchbase in the web3/crypto sector and found their founders (2K+). I collected the main fields for each founder from their LinkedIn profiles and other sources — work experience, education, Ph.D. status, entrepreneurial background, etc. Then, I normalized each indicator and, as a result, got a score from 0 to 100 for each founder, where 100 — is the highest-class founder.
But the primary value is not in the scoring as in the list itself.
Let's quickly go through the insights we managed to get from there:
