ThreeFold combines its open-source operating system, Zero-OS, with fully-encrypted connections between multiple storage locations, and a Smart Contract for IT. Together these provide similar security and reliability as a Blockchain, but at the performance of high-end server technology.
With significant storage and compute capacity available around the globe, the largest and most advanced peer-to-peer network continues to expand.
GIGABYTES OF EXISTING CAPACITY
CPU CORES
ACTIVE NODES IN 21 COUNTRIES
Any application which can run on Linux can run on the ThreeFold Grid, but with more speed, cost-efficiency, privacy & security, sustainability, and more. Any individual or organization can utilize the ThreeFold Grid's capacity for any current or future IT workload - such as Blockchain, IoT, 5G, AI and VR/AR, and benefit from improved performance and reduced costs.
Data, workloads, and programs deployed on the ThreeFold Grid are exclusively accessible by their owner. Every user is represented by a digital twin called 3Bot. It becomes the only point where personal data is saved and managed. Applications may access this data temporarily, and only with the user’s explicit permission. Access can be effectively revoked if the user does not need or want a certain service anymore.
The protection of deployments on the ThreeFold Grid extends to all workloads that are running on the ThreeFold Grid. This even includes Blockchain nodes which can benefit from the increased integrity and security. This works because if just one single node is deployed on the ThreeFold Grid, the Smart Contract for IT proves the integrity of the whole chain, since all nodes mirror each other.
ThreeFold’s ecosystem is powered by the ThreeFold Token (TFT). It is not a vehicle for short term gains or speculation, but a way to participate in a new P2P Internet.
The ThreeFold Grid's capacity is made available by farmers - people who connect hardware to the grid. They contribute to a more sustainable Internet for generations to come. ThreeFold is changing the Internet for the greater good of all, and farmers play an important role in this journey.
learn moreFarmers rent capacity to the ThreeFold Grid and get TFTs in return.
Farmers exchange their TFTs for fiat or other crypto currencies.
Users exchange their fiat or other crypto currencies for TFTs.
Users reserve capacity with TFTs, they pay farmers and part goes to the foundation.
Each TFT represents underlying Internet capacity and can be exchanged for that capacity at any time. It is the exclusive medium of exchange for Internet capacity on the ThreeFold Grid.
TFTs are exclusively generated when new capacity is added to the ThreeFold Grid. There are no centralized issuers. Tokens have not been created out of thin air, no ICO/IEO ever took place.
A maximum of 4 billion TFT can ever be created. This limit ensures stakeholders are incentivized and rewarded through both the short and long terms.
TFT lives on the Stellar Blockchain. TFT holders benefit from a big ecosystem of proven wallets and mediums of exchange. Stellar's mission to promote financial inclusion is completely aligned with the ThreeFold's vision for an inclusive Internet.
By employing Stellar technology, TFT transactions and smart contracts are powered by one of the most energy-efficient blockchains available.
The core of the ThreeFold team have been on a journey together with ThreeFold incubator Incubaid over the past two decades, building parts of the cloud we use today and achieving 500+ million USD in exits. After many years in the industry, they realized that a new Internet architecture was needed to bring positive change to our world. So, they built it.

ThreeFold is growing a green and conscious peer-to-peer Internet that is available everywhere and owned by everyone – across geographical and cultural borders, empowering people to be autonomous, and providing equal chances to learn, partake and succeed.
The ThreeFold Token (TFT) is the medium of exchange on the ThreeFold. TFT is a decentralized digital currency used to buy autonomous and decentralized Internet services (compute, storage, applications) – generated only when active capacity is added to the ThreeFold Grid.
Farmers are people that put capacity live on the ThreeFold Grid for everyone to use. Farmers are rewarded ThreeFold Tokens for doing so, and also receive ThreeFold Tokens for the usage of the capacity.
The team has extensive experience and expertise in storage, automation, and cloud. From 2000 to 2015 and through seven exits (to companies like HGST (Western Digital), Sun Microsystems, & Oracle ) before ThreeFold came to be, key stakeholders defined parts of the cloud landscape. Some of those elements are still being actively used today. After many years in the industry, they realized that a new internet architecture is needed to bring positive change to our world.
ThreeFold is a unique project and is different in so many ways. First, it is probably the technological project with the biggest reach for positive social and environmental impact in the world.
Secondly, with it’s technological infrastructure, it opens a new era for information and technology. It could revolutionaries the industry and the way we interact with each other. By decentralizing and simplifying
the internet infrastructure, solving the blockchain dilemma, and being complementary to all technologies that run with Linux, ThreeFold is set to change the technological world as we know it. You can check the comparison
document here for a better understanding of how ThreeFold technology is game-changing.
Thirdly, ThreeFold believes in collaboration, not competition. They are open to collaborate with all projects that align with their values and vision.
