-While to date we have maintained more of a focal role in terms of funding, development, and promotion, for example, this has been more out of necessity than out of desire.
-<br />
-<br />
-We know that the success of the mission depends on a distributed and decentralized ecosystem all working towards the same vision.
-<br />
-<br />
-We agree that the world needs healing and that raising consciousness is the way forward. This happens on 3 levels:
-<br />
-
-- Physical (climate, pollution)
-- Personal (spirituality)
-- Digital
-<br />
-<br />
-
-Our current internet is seriously broken, and it needs to be fixed.

-In 2016, the United Nations officially declared Internet access to be a human right. The right to internet access aims to protect people’s freedom of expression and opinion, as well as other fundamentals such as access to knowledge and information.
-<br />
-<br />
-
-Yet as of today, about 48% of humanity remains unconnected to the Internet, creating huge inequalities in the access to information and knowledge. It is important that the right steps are taken to improve the relationship between governments and citizens and to uphold all human rights.
-<br />
-<br />
-
-To make the new internet accessible and equal to all, ThreeFold built an infrastructure that is affordable to all and collectively owned by the network peers. To ensure a fair and equal distribution of the internet to everyone, fully sponsored capacity will be deployed in remote regions of our world.

-The Internet evolved to become the world's largest database of information and knowledge, opening up exponential growth on personal, organizational and economic levels. Yet it is owned by large international companies that exploit users data.
-<br />
-<br />
-
-The current approach of many governments and countries is to cut the Internet into pieces by limiting its accessibility and enforcing regulations. We need an internet that protects our digital freedom and fair access to global information for everyone, everywhere.
-<br />
-<br />
-
-The ThreeFold Grid is a peer-to-peer Internet - owned by its users. All the technology of this new Internet is open-source and the whole experience is built around the fundamentals of a peer-to-peer network. On the ThreeFold Grid, everyone owns their data and experiences - they are autonomous.

-The current internet consumes about 10% of global energy production. With the imminent boom of emerging technologies such as Blockchain, Internet of Things, Virtual Reality, Artificial Intelligence and 5G, the Internet’s energy consumption is expected to increase exponentially.
-<br />
-<br />
-
-The current industry solutions focus on increasing the use of renewable energies to power data centers. However this is not a viable solution as data centers consume enormous amounts of energy. Therefore, a new solution that can drastically reduce the global internet’s energy consumption is needed.
-<br />
-<br />
-
-The ThreeFold Grid is the first true peer-to-peer Internet. It uses pioneering technologies that removes the need for centralized and power-hungry data centers, consumes 90% less energy, and uses 90% less international fiber network capacity.
