With their last round raised early in 2019 at an 806 million dollar valuation, it won’t be long until Acorns hit the coveted unicorn status either through their own growth or another round raised.

Many of these entrepreneurs never focused on becoming a unicorn but rather solving an actual real-world problem. After all, that shouldn’t be the reason why you become an entrepreneur in the first place.

However, looking at all the unicorns in the market, most of them have reached their valuation from finding product-market-fit for their product. Each startup has had a unique way of growing from bootstrapping to VC funding and some even through crowdfunding.

However, it is exciting to forecast what startups are about to hit this status, especially with all the turmoil that has happened in 2020. It is still a huge achievement for any startup and should still be celebrated. In this list, I look at the five ‘almost’ unicorns that will most likely hit the status in 2021.

A father and son combo fintech, Jeff Cruttendan ran the investment arm of popular trading platform E-trade. Together with his son Walter Cruttendan, he started Acorns in 2012 with a simple idea.

This is the exact case for Eric Kinariala, who spent an hour waiting in a line at a pharmacy for meds before realizing they had already sold out. He started Capsule five years ago with a focus on rebuilding the complex interaction around doctors and pharmacies and building medicine.

The idea was to round up people’s spare change from debit or credit card purchases and automatically invest them via the application. Investments are automatically made into one to five portfolios, each carrying different levels of risk. Like Robinhood, it is heavily focused on the millennial market, appealing to the younger generation of new investors with easy UI and UX and minimal effort.

And again, this is not me investing in highly risky stocks or anything like that. I own companies like 3M, McDonald’s, and Intel, which are time tested, durable companies that are profitable and consistent — they just may not have crazy growth. Still, they pay consistent and reliable dividends, which allows me to earn relatively safe returns.

As of early 2020, Acorns has had 6.8 million users, up from 4.6 million in 2019. Since 2012, Acorns has had 12 rounds of funding, according to Crunchbase, and has raised over 207 million dollars.

In my opinion, startups that solve a pain point directly at the founder’s heart have a huge advantage over others. You become the customer of your own product and understand the pain others might have as well.

r laptop for professional stuff since the environment is set up to work the type of work I do, and I would hate if a new laptop system mess it up for me. If you trying to replace your current professional laptop, don’t do it. It is too early for that and the 16 option size is not yet available.

The point is just to start because what you do have on your side right now is a heck of a lot of time which can allow you to earn those compounded returns year after year.

It’s often naive to look at a startup’s valuation as a measure of success. After all, there are many stories of startups creating unrealistic ‘fake’ value for their product (e.g., Theranos).
