How is it still a startup if it's worth almost $14b
If you never come up with a marketable product you can remain a startup indefinitely.
Also calling yourself a startup makes it a lot easier to abuse your naive young techworkers. "This is just how things go with a startup mindset, your partner and kids will be fine you saw them last month"
E: another startup thing (saw Eat Just from the vatmeat thing did this, but also see Trump/Musk as notable examples), just dont pay or pay your suppliers extremely late.
