Cyberathia Annual Sustainability Proposal​:

​

Goal: $45,000 per Year to Maintain & Expand Our Shared Realm

​

Cyberathia exists because of those who believe in something deeper than digital escape. It is a world built on myth, meaning, and the sacred right to shape a community that reflects our highest ideals. As we expand this platform—integrating narrative systems, creator tools, guild dominions, and outreach mechanisms—we are aiming for financial self-sufficiency at a break-even target of $46,974 per year.

​

This goal allows us to:

​

• Maintain and secure the Cyberathia web platform (hosting, integrations, secure infrastructure)

• Build out and moderate the virtual world systems (Districts, avatars, WorldBuilder, quests)

• Compensate part-time developers, designers, and community stewards

• Offer professional asset creation, moderation services, and civic outreach tools

• Provide legal compliance, secure backups, and ongoing content updates.

 

Why It Matters

​

Cyberathia is not run by corporate stakeholders. There are no hidden shareholders, no datamining agendas. Our wealth is measured in shared myth, artistic devotion, and neighborly dignity. Every coin given goes back into the tapestry of our world. We are not selling escapism (well, maybe a little). We are building an enduring digital culture; one guild, one plaza, one crafted sigil at a time.
