In today’s fast-paced tech world, where startups rise and fall every day, it’s rare to witness a journey
that’s both deeply personal and industry-shifting. This is the story of We Anonymous—a cybersecurity
venture born out of passion, built with grit, and exited in a record-breaking 279M deal, all in just 1.8
months.
And yes—this is my story.
Humble Beginnings on Instagram
It all began with a simple idea: make cybersecurity knowledge accessible to everyone. As a
16-year-old passionate about tech and digital safety, I launched We Anonymous as a small
Instagram page. I shared reels, carousel posts, and threads about hacking tips, online privacy,
digital threats, and tools that people usually find complicated.
What I didn’t expect was how quickly it would grow. The response was insane. The audience was
not only interested but hungry for real, practical knowledge in a world full of digital chaos. I wasn’t
just building content anymore—I was building a community.
The Leap to a Startup
With the attention the page received, I knew I had something bigger in my hands. I started
developing it into a proper venture, offering cybersecurity courses, digital tools, and workshops
aimed at both individuals and businesses.
But I didn’t stop there.
While growing We Anonymous, I also launched Social Sense, my personal brand and agency, to
help others scale their digital presence just like I had done with mine. The ecosystem was
expanding—and fast.
Breaking the Rs.10M Valuation
Despite being in its infancy, We Anonymous hit a major milestone: a valuation of Rs.10 million. At
just 16, this felt surreal—but also deeply validating. It proved that a young founder could bring real
value to an industry often dominated by older professionals.
The brand became known for its practical, no-fluff approach to cybersecurity. We offered not just
knowledge, but tools. Not just content, but solutions.
The 279M Exit
Then came the turning point.
We Anonymous attracted serious interest from global players in the tech and cybersecurity space.
After intense discussions, I made the decision to exit—all assets, operations, and infrastructure—in a
279 million acquisition deal, which included a 1.3 million cash payout.
To say it was emotional is an understatement.
This wasn’t just a company. It was something I had built from scratch, post by post, reel by reel,
course by course. It was my first real taste of building something that mattered—and letting it go was
bittersweet.
But it was time.
Thank You—for Being Part of This
To everyone who followed We Anonymous, shared a reel, enrolled in a course, gave feedback, or
simply watched the journey unfold—you were part of this.
This exit wasn’t just mine. It was ours.
I genuinely want to say thank you for your support, trust, and belief in the vision. It means
everything.
What’s Next: Introducing HackSnip
While one chapter has closed, another has just begun.
I’ve officially launched my next venture: HackSnip.
HackSnip is built on the foundation of everything I learned from We Anonymous, but with a much
sharper focus. This time, the mission is to:
– Build next-gen cybersecurity tools for real-time defense
– Offer advanced ethical hacking courses that go beyond the basics
– Launch a community for young hackers, creators, and digital warriors
HackSnip isn’t just a company—it’s a movement. A place where curiosity, skill, and impact collide.
Lessons I’ve Learned
If there’s one thing this journey taught me, it’s this: age doesn’t limit impact. Starting something at 16
wasn’t easy. I had doubts. People questioned me. I was figuring it out as I went.
But passion beats perfection. Every time.
I also learned the value of storytelling, of building in public, and of staying consistent even when
things feel uncertain. We Anonymous was a product of love, discipline, and relentless execution.
Final Thoughts
To every young person dreaming of starting something—do it. Start messy. Start scared. Start even if
no one claps at first. You’ll figure the rest out along the way.
We Anonymous may be over, but what it stood for—empowerment through knowledge, real
innovation, and bold youth-led energy—lives on through HackSnip.
The journey isn’t ending. It’s just leveling up.
