> Now, at this startup, where I have been working since June 2022, I have not been paid in any way

This isn’t normal, you should have stopped working there after the first month of not being paid. So stop now.

I don’t know which country you’re in but don’t you have a contract which stipulates your salary and aren’t there any legal protections against not being paid?

I already knew they weren't going to pay, but I guessed they'd be fine in a few months and they'd pay. I was believing the startup. But now, they want more from me + not giving any salary.
