+
+CasperLabs and ThreeFold have a shared belief that decentralization is needed in order to build a better tomorrow. According to [CasperLabs](https://casperlabs.io/en/company), decentralization is "how we will create more open, transparent, permissionless networks powered by people — paving the way for a new era of equitable innovation."
+<br/>
+<br/>
+Today, ThreeFold is thrilled to announce a collaborative partnership with CasperLabs. Together, we will further CasperLabs' decentralization efforts while accelerating a collective mission and vision of more equally distributing global wealth and resources – doing so through creating more opportunity for people and enterprises around the world, without limits.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+
+_"ThreeFold and CasperLabs share a commitment to making web3 environments more accessible to all developers," says Neil Kapoor of CasperLabs. "Now that Casper is live on mainnet, we look forward to collaborating with ThreeFold to deliver a truly scalable, secure and decentralized IT infrastructure for enterprise organizations building innovative, blockchain-based solutions."_
+<br/>
+<br/>
+
+Through the partnership, developers and enterprises building on top of Casper technology will be able to choose to run on ThreeFold's [Peer-to-Peer Cloud](https://threefold.io/cloud) for storage and compute resources. This will enable them to achieve security and scalability beyond what the centralized cloud providers can offer today.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+On a smaller scale, anyone will be able to contribute to Casper's blockchain security, resiliency, scalability and decentralization, by deploying a Casper Validator node on the ThreeFold Grid in just a few clicks. The ThreeFold deployment mechanism removes all technical complexity of running Blockchain nodes.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+
+_From ThreeFold co-founder Adnan Fatayerji, "We are extremely excited about our partnership with CasperLabs. Their platform is designed with simplicity and scale to drive global adoption amongst enterprises and developers. ThreeFold fits perfectly as a decentralized substrate (storage and compute) to provide all Casper customers with a truly decentralized, secure, and scalable alternative to current cloud providers."_
+

+[Dash](https://www.dash.org) / [Dash NEXT](https://dashnext.org/) and the [ThreeFold Foundation](https://threefold.io) are excited to officially announce their collaboration, effective the end of June 2020.  Dash and ThreeFold are community-driven organizations focused on peer-to-peer solutions that strive for decentralization and the empowerment of humanity.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+
+Dash / Dash NEXT and ThreeFold will work together on developer projects on the ThreeFold Grid. The Dash developer community, and anyone interested in contributing to the Dash Blockchain, is being invited to use a truly decentralized and  affordable cloud alternative - [ThreeFold P2P Cloud](http://cloud.threefold.io). Developers can now deploy their Dash nodes and IT workloads on the ThreeFold Grid with an autonomous execution via [Smart Contracts for IT](https://library.threefold.me/info/sdk/#/smart_contract). 
+<br/>
+<br/>
+
+Further, community members are being invited to explore possibilities in using the ThreeFold Grid’s capacity and peer-to-peer cloud for their own personal computing needs and projects. Anyone interested in being a node operator in the Dash Blockchain using the ThreeFold Grid would be highly encouraged to get started in a few steps following this [documentation](https://forum.threefold.io/t/deploy-a-dash-node-in-5-steps-on-the-threefold-grid/509).  
+<br/>
+<br/>
+Adnan Fatayerji, co-founder at ThreeFold, enthusiastically expressed his excitement working with the Dash developer community, “We are extremely excited about our collaboration with Dash [and Dash NEXT], a global name in decentralized transactions. We look forward to empowering their developer community with access to a global substrate of peer-to-peer storage and compute. Together we will drive financial and Internet inclusion to the edge of the network!”
+<br/>
+<br/>
+
+The Dash community and any individual or organization interested in contributing to Dash are now empowered to deploy their Dash MasterNodes and any containerized IT workload using the [ThreeFold P2P Cloud](http://cloud.threefold.io), and benefit from  an autonomous execution via [Smart Contracts for IT](https://library.threefold.me/info/sdk/#/smart_contract). Dash’s community is incentivized to get started with free compute and storage capacities offered by ThreeFold.  
+<br/>
+<br/>
+Felix Mago, Co-Founder at Dash NEXT shared his enthusiasm around that opportunity: “We are excited to have ThreeFold as a partner as they are enabling us to host Dash Masternodes in a decentralized manner.”
+<br/>
+<br/>
+
+[You can follow this documentation to deploy full Dash nodes and MasterNodes on the ThreeFold grid  in 5 easy steps.](https://forum.threefold.io/t/deploy-a-dash-node-in-5-steps-on-the-threefold-grid/509)
+
+### About Dash:
+
+Dash is an open source peer-to-peer cryptocurrency with a strong focus on the payments industry. Dash offers a form of money that is portable, inexpensive, divisible and fast. It can be spent securely both online and in-person with only minimal transaction fees. Based on the Bitcoin project, Dash aims to be the most user-friendly and scalable payments system in the world.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+
+In addition to Bitcoin’s feature set, Dash currently also offers instant transactions ([InstantSend](https://docs.dash.org/en/stable/introduction/features.html#instantsend)), private transactions ([PrivateSend](https://docs.dash.org/en/stable/introduction/features.html#privatesend)) and operates a self-governing and self-funding model that enables the Dash network to pay individuals and businesses for work that adds value to the network. This [decentralized governance and budgeting system](https://docs.dash.org/en/stable/governance/index.html#governance) makes it one of the first ever successful decentralized autonomous organizations (DAO).
+
+### About ThreeFold:
+
+ThreeFold has developed the largest and most advanced peer-to-peer Internet grid in the world.  They launched the [ThreeFold Grid](https://explorer.grid.tf/) V2.0 in  April 2020 – a  more performant, private & secure, affordable, and sustainable solution than centralized cloud and internet providers. 
+<br/>
+<br/>
+With a collective and incentivized ecosystem of Farmers (independent Internet capacity providers) around the globe, the ThreeFold Grid  is now open for developers to build on top of it,  and users can now benefit from all the advantages of the ThreeFold Grid.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+The ThreeFold Foundation aims to empower a more equal, autonomous (decentralized) and sustainable world, and does so  by providing the necessary peer-to-peer technologies and infrastructure to the world, while incentivizing growth in developing regions.

+
+The [DigiByte Foundation](https://digibytefoundation.io/) and the [ThreeFold Foundation](https://threefold.io) are aligned – both focused on values, working towards their visions and missions in creating a truly decentralized, equal, and sustainable world that empowers humanity. Doing good for the planet is at the core of both organizations' DNA. 
+<br/>
+<br/>
+Today, DigiByte and ThreeFold are pleased to officially announce their collaborative partnership.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+DigiByte and ThreeFold will work together on developer and user projects on the ThreeFold Grid. The DigiByte developer community, and anyone interested in contributing to the DigiByte Blockchain, is being invited to use a more decentralized and affordable cloud computing capacity. Developers can now deploy their DigiByte nodes and IT workloads on the ThreeFold Grid with an autonomous execution via [Smart Contracts for IT](https://library.threefold.me/info/sdk/#/smart_contract).  
+<br/>
+<br/>
+Further, community members are also being invited to explore possibilities in using the ThreeFold Grid’s capacity for their own personal computing needs and projects.  Anyone interested in being a node operator in the DigiByte Blockchain using the ThreeFold Grid would be highly encouraged to get started in a few steps following [the documentation](https://forum.threefold.io/t/how-to-deploy-a-digibyte-node-with-your-3bot-in-5-steps/379).  
+<br/>
+<br/>
+The ThreeFold team is very proud to welcome The DigiByte Foundation to the [Conscious Internet Alliance](https://consciousinternet.org) initiative led by ThreeFold, where together with many other planet and human-centric projects, they will collaborate on making our global Internet neutral again. 
+
+### About DigiByte:
+[DigiByte](https://digibyte.io/) is a rapidly-growing open-source blockchain created in late 2013 and released in early 2014. After 6 years of forward-thinking development, DigiByte has become one of the safest, fastest, longest and most decentralized UTXO blockchain in existence with one of the most active communities in the Crypto and Blockchain space
+<br/>
+<br/>
+The DigiByte Foundation is a volunteer-managed organization that operates in a non-profit way. They protect and promote the true principles of decentralization and empower DigiByte and its community to establish and maintain a sustainable decentralized world. 
+
+### About ThreeFold:
+ThreeFold has developed the largest and most advanced peer-to-peer Internet grid in the world.  They launched the ThreeFold Grid V2.0 in  April 2020 – a  more performant, private & secure, affordable, and sustainable solution than centralized cloud and internet providers. 
+<br/>
+<br/>
+With a collective and incentivized ecosystem of Farmers (independent Internet capacity providers) around the globe, the [ThreeFold Grid](https://explorer.grid.tf/)  is now open for developers to build on top of it,  and users can now benefit from all the advantages of the ThreeFold Grid.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+The ThreeFold Foundation aims to empower a more equal, autonomous (decentralized) and sustainable world, and does so  by providing the necessary peer-to-peer technologies and infrastructure to the world, while incentivizing growth in developing regions.

+In most distributed systems, data is stored multiple times to guarantee redundancy. This leads to a lot of unnecessary overhead and is also not the most secure mechanism.

+<br/>
+Meet **the dispersed storage algorithm** – a crucial part of our storage system – which breaks data down into equations that are spread across nodes, leading to increased security, reliability, and efficiency, with much lower overhead.
