Sounds like an "eternally vaporware startup" to me. I've worked for one of those before. The work can be interesting at times as you feel the need to do something nobody else has done before. But then it never gets anywhere because the whole premise is based on things that are fundamentally unsound/impossible. My experience is then you get your pay cut by the CEO because you're not producing anything "of value", and then you get sued by the investors for the same reason (okay I've got my name on provisional patents that aren't based on reality, but I refuse to give them up after I quit, probably mostly out of spite). Still, I say get out while (if) you still can, and move on to better things.
