The Method

Illustration of the ginger cat flicking a toy mouse toward a numbered grid on a desk

  1. Pick up mouse.

    Favourite one. That's the research.

  2. Throw.

    Every number is a company. Aim optional.

  3. Nap for a quarter.

    Wake up. Repeat.

“…to beat the market. Or, in this case, the cat.” — NPR PLANET MONEY, 2013

Economists call it the random walk.
Orlando calls it cardio.

Past performance: better than yours. Not a guarantee of future results. Especially a cat's.
Exhibit C

Toss the Mouse

Same method as 2012. Five throws. One basket. Zero analysts.

(paw not included)

Paw ready.

Toss 1 of 5

Random toy. The tickers are just labels, and none of these companies knows this cat exists. Not advice. Don't trade on a toy.

Exhibit D

How to Buy

  1. Get a Solana wallet.

    Write the seed phrase down. Show no one. Not even the cat.

  2. Load it with SOL.

    Plus a little extra for fees.

  3. Copy the CA.

    Only from this site, our X or our TG. Other “Orlando” coins exist. Wrong cat.

  4. Swap.

    SOL → $ORLANDO. Check the address twice. Only spend what you can lose.
