At the base, nodes form the physical foundation—distributed computers that provide processing power, storage, and networking capabilities. These nodes work together to create a global, community-powered infrastructure.
Regardless of technical expertise, anyone can deploy nodes from their homes or offices, and participate in a decentralized alternative to corporate-owned data centers – while earning rewards for their contributions. We call this process “farming.”
All you need to get started is a modern computer, electricity and network. Once booted with Zero OS, a computer becomes a ThreeFold Node.
The capacity of the node gets verified and registered in the ThreeFold Blockchain, securing access to a decentralized autonomous cloud.
After your node is set up and verified, you’ll be rewarded for the capacity that you provide to the ThreeFold Grid.
