As we previously shared, we believe in the organic and sustainable growth of ThreeFold Token and the Internet of Internets vision. And one of our key goals is to strengthen the foundation of the ecosystem by enhancing the stability and liquidity of the ThreeFold Token (TFT). So today, were embarking on a little journey to find out how to access TFT and how to provide liquidity on Stellar via [Albedo](https://albedo.link/).
#### What are liquidity pools?
Liquidity pools are an integral part of DeFi systems and can be understood as a “[collection of tokens or digital assets stored in a smart contract](https://www.blockchain-council.org/defi/crypto-liquidity-pools/)” on a decentralized exchange (DEX). Liquidity pools allow users to buy or sell such assets in a decentralized way and are used to enhance decentralized trading, lending/borrowing and other DeFi services. Users get rewarded with a cut of the fees generated in the process to incentivize them to become liquidity providers.
#### What does it mean to drive liquidity on Stellar?
Stellar offers multiple great solutions and basically everything we need, so its crucial for us to start building our own liquidity there. Since every asset and currency starts with zero liquidity when issued on Stellar, it is up to the community to put capital onto the Stellar Network and to put that capital to use for trading, e.g. by adding liquidity to pools with TFT. The more liquidity we provide on Stellar, the more we contribute to creating and sustaining a healthy market for TFT there while simultaneously attracting others to get involved in TFT.
#### About Stellar 
[Stellar](https://threefold.io/blog/post/thriving_with_stellar/) is an open network for storing, moving and trading any kind of money transparently and efficiently, with a thriving ecosystem on top and a huge community. Find out all about Stellar, its role for the TFT ecosystem, how to buy TFT on Stellar, and more [here](https://threefold.io/blog/post/thriving_with_stellar/).
#### About Albedo 
[Albedo](https://albedo.link/) acts as a single access point to the Stellar ecosystem. Its a free, open-source, secure and simple browser wallet for the Stellar Network. Albedo allows other Stellar apps to request transaction signing or identity verification without ever requiring the exposure of users secret keys. Its a nice and simple browser-based keystore with wallet-, swap- and liquidity pool functionalities. 
<br/>
Together, we will now go through the process of accessing TFT and providing liquidity on Stellar by using Albedo and its key features. All it takes are four simple steps:
1. Set up Albedo
2. Get TFT
3. Choose another asset
4. Add liquidity to a pool
## Step 1 Set up Albedo
Albedo is not just a wallet. Its a **keystore** that interconnects applications across the Stellar universe and signs a transaction or verifies your identity for you, without running the risk of exposing your secret key or having to create new accounts for every Stellar application. 
### Step 1.1: Open Albedo
Albedo works as a **web app and browser extension**, meaning you can either access it in your browser or install the extension on [Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/kbojmmmibkfijmjgnfgfpngmmgkkpncl) or [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/albedo-signer-for-stellar/). Once youve either opened Albedo in your browser or installed the extension, just follow the instructions.
<br/>
For this step-by-step guide, Ive chosen to open Albedo in my browser instead of using the extension.
### Step 1.2: Set up your Albedo account
First, click on the “Create Albedo account”-button. Next, click “Proceed” on the bottom of the Welcome page.
<br/>
Now, you can choose between between three main options:
* Log in
* Import account
* Create account
If you already have an Albedo account, either directly **log in** or if its the first time youre using Albedo on a new device click on the “Import Account”-button to **import the 24 word passphrase or secret key** and access your account.
<br/>
![Import Wallet](./import_wallet.png)
<br/>
If youre new to Albedo, youll need to create an Albedo account first in order to use the keystore. Choose a **safe password** for this account and hit “Create account”.
<br/>
![Set Account Password](./set_account_password.png)
<br/>
You just set up your Albedo account! Make sure to carefully read the instructions on keeping your **recovery phrase** safe, before continuing.
<br/>
![Recovery Phrase](./recovery_phrase.png)
<br/>
Now you can check out your new account and play around with the settings, e.g. to change your accounts name. You also get an overview of all the possible ways to use Albedo.
<br/>
![Albedo Overview](./albedo_overview.png)
### Step 1.3: Activate account on ledger
In order to make your Albedo account fully functional, youll need to initially activate the account on the ledger by sending at least **1.6 XLM** to your accounts address.
## Step 2 Get TFT
The time has come to fund your Albedo account with TFT. Simply swap other assets for TFT if youre already holding some in your Albedo account or transfer TFT from other wallets.
<br/>
*Good to know: Albedo doesnt provide a direct fiat gateway. Visit our TFT knowledge base to discover all the ways you can [buy TFT](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold#/tokens/threefold__how_to_buy?id=how-to-buy-amp-sell-tft), including fiat options.*
### Step 2.2.A: Deposit TFT to your Albedo account
If youre holding TFT in a different wallet, simply transfer the tokens and send them to your Albedo account. Simply open your wallet and send TFT to your Albedo address. Its best to copy your Albedo address which is displayed in the top-left corner by clicking on the copy-symbol its not only faster but also safer as copying prevents you from making typos.
<br/>
![Copy Wallet Address](./copy_wallet_address.png)
### Step 2.2.B: Swap XLM/USDC for TFT within Albedo
You could also stay within Albedo by buying XLM or USDC first and then swapping them for TFT.
<br/>
![Swap for TFT](./swap_for_tft.png)
<br/>
***Important note**: I recommend buying XLM regardless of whether youre choosing option A or B, as youre going to **need XLM to pay for the transaction fees** within the Stellar Network anyways.*
### Step 2.3: Activate assets
Please note that you have to add a trustline for any asset you want to store in your Albedo account in order to activate it. Just go to “Balance” in your account overview. On the bottom of the page, youll find the “Add trustline”-button.
<br/>
![Activate Assets](./activate_assets.png)
<br/>
Click on “Add trustline”, then press the “Choose an asset” on the next page and type TFT into the “Select an asset”-field.
<br/>
![Choose Asset Trustline](./choose_asset_trustline.png)
<br/>
**Caution: make sure to select the right TFT** the one with our logo thats linked with our website threefold.io as shown in the image below.
<br/>
![Select Asset Trustline](./select_asset_trustline.png)
<br/>
Now you can activate the selected asset by pressing “Add trustline”.
<br/>
![Add Trustline](./add_trustline.png)
## Step 3 Choose another asset
At this point, you already have TFT in your Albedo account, so its time to choose a second asset to combine with TFT as a trading pair like XLM or USDC. You can get XLM or USDC on many exchanges and then deposit it to your Albedo wallet.
<br/>
Repeat the same procedure of buying/depositing/swapping and activating for this second asset the other part of the trading pair youve chosen to provide liquidity to in a pool. We chose USDC.
## Step 4 Add liquidity to a pool
For this guide, well be depositing TFT and USDC in order to provide liquidity to the pool.
<br/>
So after creating and activating your account and assets on Albedo, youre now holding TFT and USDC. Youre ready to add liquidity to the TFT <> USDC pool on Albedo.
### Step 4.1: Select assets & amount
Head to the “Liquidity” section in order to select the two assets youd like to provide liquidity to and to set the amount of TFT and USDC you would like to provide to this pool.
<br/>
![Select Assets and Amount](./select_assets_and_amount.png)
### Step 4.2: Deposit liquidity
Now youre ready to provide liquidity! Click on the “Deposit liquidity to the pool”-button located at the bottom of your screen to add the selected assets to the pool.
<br/>
![Deposit Liquidity to Pool](./deposit_liquidity_to_pool.png)
<br/>
**Congrats, youve just added liquidity to the TFT <> USDC pool!**
<br/>
Now youre a liquidity provider on Stellar! Other ways to contribute to Stellars liquidity pools are [xBull Wallet](https://xbull.app/) and [StellarX](https://www.stellarx.com/). No matter which of the interfaces you use, they all enable you to add liquidity to the same underlying pool on the **StellarDEX** for the trading pair you chose.
<br/>
As exciting as this is, please dont forget: With great decentralization comes great responsibility! So, do your own research on how liquidity pools work and make sure you understand the risks related to impermanent loss. Also, read [this advice](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold#/tokens/threefold__threefold_wallets?id=important-notes) on keeping your TFT safe.
<br/>
Feel free to ask any questions either in the [chats](https://t.me/threefold) or the forums [token section](https://forum.threefold.io/c/threefold-token/22)!
<br/>
*Please note that the ThreeFold Token ([TFT](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__threefold_token)) is not an investment instrument. Also, this is not investment advice, everyone is free to make their own choices. So, do your own research and read our [disclaimer](https://library.threefold.me/info/legal/#/legal__disclaimer).*

## Three Essential Resources
In the world of cloud computing, we speak of three basic resources provided by servers: compute, storage, and network. The ThreeFold Grid provides various primitives in each of these categories, to fulfill all the same needs served by centralized cloud providers. While our offerings have the special properties discussed above, they are also highly compatible with the most popular tools and protocols currently used in the industry. This makes it relatively simple to migrate the back end applications, also known as "workloads", that provide a kind of connective tissue for all of the digital experiences we enjoy on a daily basis.

Theres no question that climate change is one of the biggest, if not the biggest threats facing humanity today. If we care at all about future generations and the health of our planet, we have no choice but to address these threats, and fast. Thats why one of our biggest aims is to lower the energy usage of our digital lives. But ThreeFold is taking not just a sustainable approach, were setting the plan for a planet positive Internet.

Today, the blockchain space is flooded with as many as 22,000 coins and tokens and for several months now, the market has been struggling at large with some coins even collapsing. A thorough shakeout could expose those tokens and coins purely focused on making quick profits and creating hype, and mitigate pump-and-dump schemes. Nows the time for projects like us to shine projects with tokens that serve a higher purpose and come with sound tokenomics.
## TFT An Accessible Utility Token
Were an Internet infrastructure project building the [Internet of Internets](https://threefold.io/blog/post/internet_of_internets/) together with a growing community around the world. So, TFT is not just any token. TFT is our native utility token, and as such, is backed by the continuous growth of the ThreeFold Grid.
<br/>
Generally speaking, [utility tokens](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__newtotokens?id=threefold-token-for-beginners) are created to give digital access to specific products or services. While they do provide value in different ways, they cannot be considered “money” as directly as coins can be.
<br/>
As the utility token and medium of exchange of the [ThreeFold Grid](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tfgrid/threefold__grid_intro), TFT represents Internet capacity. It supports a truly decentralized Internet for all and is leveraged to access and scale our open-source peer-to-peer Internet infrastructure. TFT is and will remain our main token, its our global currency. In a nutshell, TFT is our way of incentivizing an open ecosystem where anyone can connect and utilize Internet capacity without any intermediaries.
<br/>
Weve made a lot of progress in making the ThreeFold Token more accessible and in creating a healthy financial ecosystem for it. Moreover, the team is building our own DeFi solutions. You can learn more about our efforts towards providing a native financial system for the Internet of Internets [here](https://threefold.io/blog/post/future_tft_ecosystem/).
<br/>
*If youre new to ThreeFold, I recommend giving our “[ThreeFold Token for Beginners](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__newtotokens)” page a read.*
## Limited Supply and Strong Scarcity Mechanisms
First of all, the supply of TFT is [limited](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__tft_limited_supply) to a total number of 4 billion. New TFT are only minted when new Internet capacity is added to the ThreeFold Grid we call this process of connecting capacity [farming](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold#/tfgrid/farming/threefold__farming_intro). The tokens are minted using our so-called [Proof of Capacity](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold#/tfgrid/farming/threefold__proof_of_capacity) algorithm. Were also exploring the possibility of providing farmers with booster rewards for certain achievements in areas like reliability and uptime, quality of bandwidth, level of utilization. 
<br/>
In line with our [planet-first people-first philosophy](https://threefold.io/blog/post/planet_first_people_first/), weve implemented a Voluntary Carbon Credits system in the PoC algorithm, so every 3Node mints additional TFT to offset its own carbon emissions, as outlined [here](https://forum.threefold.io/t/threefold-on-track-to-be-planet-positive/2097?u=hannahcordes).
<br/>
To incentivize the long-term growth of the ecosystem, a burning mechanism permanently removes TFT from the circulating supply, as this ensures scarcity and continuous [farming rewards](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tfgrid/farming/threefold__farming_reward). Burning will increase proportionally as the [utilization](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__proof_of_utilization) of the Grid grows, ensuring the amount of TFT in the market is limited and leading to a healthy economic system.
<br/>
Also, many existing token holders expressed their confidence and support by [vesting](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__vesting_overview) their TFT in 2021, further limiting the number of TFT circulating. Moreover, chances are that a growing number of token owners will hold onto their TFT because they expect the token to rise in value which will increase scarcity. Ultimately, [TFT](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tfgrid/farming/threefold__threefold_token) has the potential to become a valuable commodity, offering a more reliable alternative to other digital currencies like Bitcoin. The hoarding of TFT means that these tokens wont be available to be used on the Grid, additionally reducing the amount of available TFT.
<br/>
And there are more factors potentially reinforcing scarcity. Staking is the mechanism to let the community invest and benefit from the growth of the Grid. Once the validator nodes can be deployed, validator owners and community members will be able to stake TFT on the validators which will secure the blockchain. To unlock voting rights and rewards, a certain amount of TFT has to be staked. Eventually, rewards for the validator owners could account for up to 50% of the [TFT](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tfgrid/farming/threefold__threefold_token) supply.
<br/>
The combination of the tokens scarcity mechanisms with our staking and validator programs will lead to an increased scarcity of TFT on the market which, in turn, will allow our future DeFi solutions to sell TFT at a higher value. 
<br/>
*Visit our wiki to dive deeper into our [tokenomics](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__tokenomics) and to find more details on the [value of TFT](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__grid_valuation).*
## TFTs Role for the Internet of Internets
We dont believe in hype or speculation, and we dont spend any of our scarce resources on supporting speculation. We believe in the [Internet of Internets](https://threefold.io/blog/post/internet_of_internets/) which will interconnect us all, while providing us with digital sovereignty, privacy and meaningful experiences. We believe in the organic and sustainable growth of ThreeFold Token and the Internet of Internets vision.
<br/>
Along with building community-owned Internets, our ecosystem is reimagining education, business, governance and more for a fair, inclusive and regenerative future opening up a new world of possibilities. And in order to connect such an ecosystem of Internets, a healthy and fair financial system with a strong, stable currency is key.
<br/>
As the glocal concept will be rolled out, the ThreeFold Token will unfold its [potential](https://forum.threefold.io/t/what-is-the-real-value-of-tft/3143) and flourish. The Internet of Internets empowers people to build their own regional Internet infrastructures and will become a huge stimulator for the TFT economy. Every Regional Internet will have its own self-sustaining liquidity pool, validators, and regional digital currencies with TFT acting as the reserve currency of the entire decentralized system. It is the currency needed to transfer between all the different Regional Internets via liquidity pools. TFT is also the currency of the main ThreeFold Blockchain.
<br/>
*Catch a [glimpse of the future](https://threefold.io/blog/post/future_tft_ecosystem/) of the TFT ecosystem to learn more!*
## The Internet of Internets as a Catalyst for Token Growth
ThreeFold is not only for believers in open source and decentralization. ThreeFold, and TFT, are needed. TFT is [much more](https://forum.threefold.io/t/what-is-the-real-value-of-tft/3143) than a simple token. It energizes the ThreeFold Grid and the [expansion](https://threefold.io/blog/post/four_phases_of_threefold/) of a truly decentralized Internet. There are many new ecosystem developments, tech advancements and building blocks for the Internet of Internets happening all around.
<br/>
The realization of the Internet of Internets combined with the previously mentioned burning and [scarcity](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__tft_limited_supply) mechanisms will trigger basic supply-and-demand mechanisms. The limited token supply will meet a rising demand for TFT. The token will be needed to buy and reserve current or future Internet capacity and services on our Grid as well as for driving the rollout and expansion of the Internet of Internets establishing the global Internets of Internets alone will require billions of TFT. In addition to that, TFT will be needed to access the [FreeFlow Twin](https://forum.threefold.io/t/lets-test-out-freeflow-twin-beta-formerly-uhuru/3299/12) (formerly known as Uhuru) and to deploy workloads on the Grid, e.g. through weblets on the [TF Playground](https://forum.threefold.io/t/threefold-product-focus-series-tf-playground-v3-7-0/3315/3). All in all, there will be a natural economic demand for TFT.
<br/>
For farmers, developers and community members looking to build a better world, there has never been a better time to join the [movement](https://t.me/threefold) and take action. This is an exciting time to be part of the global ThreeFold community.

<br/>
*Please note that the ThreeFold Token ([TFT](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__threefold_token)) is not an investment instrument. TFT represents IT capacity on the [ThreeFold Grid](https://library.threefold.me/info/threefold/#/tokens/threefold__threefold_grid), farmers create TFT, developers use TFT. Also, this is not investment advice, everyone is free to make their own choices. So, do your own research and read our [disclaimer](https://library.threefold.me/info/legal/#/legal__disclaimer).*
