We are Building Web 4
Imagine a system built to scale to a planetary level, seamlessly compatible with AI, Cloud, Web2, Web3, and Edge IT workloads. A system that is resilient to unforeseen events, provides 100% uptime, and enables any machine and human to communicate over the shortest, most direct path possible.
That's Threefold
Get Started What we've built
A Global Community
With ThreeFold, individuals, organizations, communities, countries, and network states deploy their own sovereign infrastructure. The ThreeFold Grid has been live and operational since 2017.
Version 3.14 is live on Mainnet.
To build Web 4, we need +1,000,000 Nodes
Explore Grid Capacity
Powering the Grid Together
Regardless of technical expertise, anyone can now provide data, network, and cloud resources to where they’re needed most while earning rewards for their contributions. We call this process "farming”.
1. HOST A NODE
All you need to get started is a modern computer, electricity and network. Once booted with Zero OS, a computer becomes a ThreeFold Node.
2. OFFER CAPACITY
The capacity of the node gets verified and registered in the ThreeFold Blockchain, securing access to a decentralized autonomous cloud for users and communities.
3. EARN REWARDS
After your node is set up and verified, you’ll be rewarded for the capacity that you provide to the ThreeFold Grid.

ThreeFold is the Infrastructure Layer of Web 4
ThreeFold is not a protocol. We’ve developed foundational technology that runs directly on bare metal (the hardware).
ThreeFold is likely the only active project with a truly scalable solution addressing the Internet and Cloud’s core components: Data, Cloud, and Network.
Unbreakable Data
Data cannot be compromised and always remains private, owned by you. A scalable system, to the planetary level. Can be distributed and stored in ways which are at least 10x more efficient and orders of magnitude more secure and reliable.
Autonomous Cloud
Self-healing and self-driving cloud based on an efficient and secure operating system runs directly on the hardware. Can run any Web 2, Web 3, or AI workload at the edge of the Internet, with more scalability and reliability.
P2P Network
End-to-end encrypted overlay network, always looking for the shortest possible path between participants. Logical Internet address securely linked to a private key. Unlimited scale and performance optimizations.
WEB 4: The Next Evolution of the Internet
Web 4 is the natural progression of the Internet, where humans and artificial intelligence work together to create a new paradigm designed to promote planetary well-being and ensure equal opportunities for all. Users are in 100% control of their data and no centralized services are needed.
Blockchain was the first step to Web3.
ThreeFold is the next step to Web4.
