+## Why ThreeFold?
+The boiling frog is a parable describing a frog being slowly boiled alive. The premise is that if a frog is put suddenly into boiling water, it will jump out, but if the frog is put in tepid water which is then brought to a boil slowly, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death. ThreeFold is key in helping people and companies think ahead and not end up in hot water.
