Mass Address Update 19July2023

Make or break time

Greetings and Salutations,

I know it has been a while since my last email, but I needed to let you know what's going on with the company. Ashton has been working on the MVP for the past 6 months, and we are entering the final 24 hours before contract expiration. On Sunday, Ashton notified me and let me know the application is viable and ready for testing. Tonight, we will pass traffic to see if the platform commits identification across the nodes.

For those of you who have been following our journey, you may remember we were VERY close to completing the platform in February. Everything worked perfectly except for authentication. In February, after an individual, i.e., me, passed the PII checks and paid the toll, the platform wouldn't save the PII across the nodes. This was due to Google’s software.

Expectations:

I need to be brutally honest with the investors and our community of supporters. I am running 2 companies on less than $1000 a month. It is no longer sustainable due to the economy. Prior to the current administration, working on both companies was possible.

If the MVP doesn't work within 24 hours, the project will be shut down until further substantial investment can be acquired. All of the configuration files, data, and documentation will be stored in a secure location. I will take my research and write a book about my life's work.

I have a family to support and they have been making sacrifices to see this project to the end. I’m approaching my 39th birthday and the ultimate birthday present for me is a working application or the financial relief of not paying for Mass Address.
