James Carleton has test servers running, and now he needs the financial backing to scale hardware to support the Ethereum Migration in a high-traffic, commercial environment.

[GENERAL] Summarize your relevant experience.

James Carleton has over 40 years programming experience working for Bell Labs, IBM, and as an independent contractor. He is a Vietnam veteran, and senior citizen who is actively building cyber real estate solutions for the Cardano community. It's retro, stylish, and awesome.

[GENERAL] Requested funds in USD.

[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

Cyber Nations will be treated like real estate, through the creation of Cyber Nations. This is a solution that has been in development for the last three years, developed in its entirety by James M. Carleton, Unix guru. Resident owners of parcels can post ads and trade CNFTs and buy and sell Cyber Nations properties using cryptocurrency.
