How It Works
At the base, nodes form the physical foundation. These are distributed computers that provide processing power, storage, and networking capabilities. Together, they create a global, community-powered infrastructure.
Anyone can deploy nodes from their home or office and take part in hosting a decentralized alternative to corporate-owned data centers. Rewards are based on utilization, with 80% of earnings going to the hoster and 20% going to the ThreeFold Treasury.

{{ farm_steps(
