What we do

Build. Research. Advise.

Young Ventures supports affiliated ventures and external clients across the full arc of a technology product — strategy and research at the front, engineering and partnerships through the middle, commercialization at the end.

01 — Build

Product & engineering

Software and product-development support across the stack — agentic workflows, data pipelines, smart-contract systems, and the market infrastructure underneath them. Architecture through deployment.

02 — Research

Technical research

Applied and frontier research — quantum cryptography, market microstructure, mechanism design — translated into rigorous theses, white papers, and research partnerships that ventures can build on.

03 — Advise

Strategy & business development

Product strategy, ecosystem partnerships, fundraising support, and commercialization. Where AI and crypto products meet financial regulation, market structure, and institutional capital.

Areas of focus

Where we're uniquely useful.

Digital market infrastructure

Perpetuals, derivatives, prediction markets, and the exchange rails beneath them. Designing tradable products from raw fundamentals and metrics.

Blockchain & DeFi systems

On-chain protocol design, tokenomics, and deployment — including app-specific orderbooks and high-throughput venues such as Hyperliquid HIP-3.

Quantum cryptography & post-quantum finance

Quantum money, verifiable scarcity, and the cryptographic foundations of money in a post-quantum world — through open research and convening.

AI & agentic systems

Frontier-model integration and multi-agent architectures for research, diligence, and production data pipelines.

Ventures we're building

Building keeps us close to the work.

Young Ventures originates and develops its own founder-led ventures. Building products ourselves keeps us close to the same technical, market, and regulatory problems our clients face.

MAGNITUDE MARKETS

Trade earnings directly.

The first venue to buy and sell revenues, cash flows, and EPS surprises — a fundamentals-based perpetuals exchange built on Hyperliquid HIP-3. Take a view on the number, not the price reaction around it.

WIESNER LABS

Quantum Money, Quantum Finance

An open research foundation advancing quantum cryptography and quantum money — honoring Stephen Wiesner, who invented quantum money in 1969. Convening the researchers building money's cryptographic future.

MACHINE CURRENCY

New stores of value.

A global RFP and event series designing Bitcoin-like systems built on new verifiable scarcities. Convenings have run in San Francisco and London, bringing together researchers from Cambridge, Google Quantum AI, and beyond.

Selected work & recognition

A track record across markets and research.

Capital markets

Investment Committee · Multicoin Capital

Investment-committee role at a leading crypto fund, following macro and EM-equities seats at Brevan Howard and Norges Bank's emerging-markets desk.

Convening

Machine Currency — SF & London

Organized two quantum-finance convenings, the London edition gathering ~50 researchers and practitioners with speakers from Cambridge, Google Quantum AI, and Project 11. A Quantum Finance Symposium with NYU is in planning.

Research

The Quantum Money Index

A structured research corpus — a 125-paper bibliography across 22 quantum-money scheme families, with a classification schema for security, decentralization, and implementation status.

Building

Hackathons & engineering

First place at ETHGlobal London, Imperial HealthTech champion, and a first-place stock-pitch win against 75 teams at McGill — across Python, Solidity, React, and ML systems.

Ways we partner

Focused support at the right moment.

Engagements are tailored. Young Ventures earns through consulting fees, technical-service agreements, research partnerships, and product-development or commercial agreements — structured to fit the work.

STRATEGIC ADVISOR

Sharper judgment at key moments

High-level strategy, fundraising support, targeted introductions, and counsel across GTM, partnerships, market structure, and regulation.

Best for founders who need leverage, judgment, and network access.

TECHNICAL ENGAGEMENT

Senior execution, embedded

Hands-on product, research, and engineering support under a technical-service agreement — pipelines, protocol design, white papers, and special projects.

Best for teams that need an operator inside the work, not a consulting deck.

VENTURE PARTNER

Build something together

Long-term collaboration with aligned incentives — equity, revenue share, or partnership structures — where there's deep conviction in the market.

Best for ambitious teams building in markets, blockchain, or research.

About

Operated by Young Loon Ling.

Young Ventures is a Delaware technology consulting and venture-development company focused on software, internet, blockchain, and digital market-infrastructure projects. It provides product strategy, technical research, software and product-development support, business development, ecosystem partnerships, and commercialization strategy for affiliated ventures and external clients.

The company is operated by Young Loon Ling — a builder and investor whose work spans Multicoin Capital's investment committee, Brevan Howard, Norges Bank, Nansen, and Folius Ventures, and who studied Econometrics & Mathematical Economics at the London School of Economics (First Class Honours, Sir Charlie Bean Prize).

Through Young Ventures, that work now takes the form of founder-led ventures — Magnitude Markets and Wiesner Labs — and selective consulting and research partnerships with external clients.
