In panel two Startup Cat stands behind a lemonade-style stand on Oakview Road under a banner reading NFT Starter Packs, next to a Limited Supply sign, telling three children to get in before institutional investors. In panel three a boy holds a card labelled Startup Cat NFT #0123 while the cat, beside a sign reading Own Legacy. Own Nothing., says you are not buying currency, you are buying upside.

    Startup Cat, dressed as a lawyer for the ChatGPT Legal Department, reads a disclaimer that all characters and events are fictional and any resemblance to real people or startups is purely coincidental. He adds that if you think the comic is about you it probably isn’t, but if you genuinely resemble Startup Cat, take the afternoon off.
