How to raise a VC fund as a 30 year old?

I'm curious what it takes for someone to raise an early stage vc/growth fund in their late 20s/early 30s. Is it pedigree -> working at a firm like Bessemer/Accel/Insight out of college? Is it working at a vc/growth firm and sourcing a unicorn? Or is it strictly connections?

Seams like there's been some VC/growth funds raised by people in their 20s/early 30s -> Sinai Ventures, Thrive Capital, Elephant, The House Fund, Behind genius Ventures, etc...
