### The Users
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In our **Web4 enabled Internet**, powered by ThreeFold, **normal users become active participants**.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
By using a **ThreeFold Phone** or apps hosted on the **ThreeFold Grid**, you can create and control your own **digital life**.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Your data stays private, stored securely on a decentralized infrastructure, while you access personalized apps and services tailored to your needs. With ThreeFold, you’re empowered to own your digital identity, interact in peer-to-peer ecosystems, and contribute to a more sustainable, user-driven internet.

### Cloud Providers (Farmers)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Individual and commercial farmers contribute hardware capacity to the ThreeFold Grid and earn rewards for their participation.
|
|||
|
- In the coming years, our goal is to connect millions of nodes to the network.
|
|||
|
- Our network technology delivers an end-to-end encrypted and highly reliable connection layer.
|
|||
|
- Our storage technology ensures data is never lost and privacy is fully protected.
|
|||
|
- [Explore the ThreeFold Dashboard](https://dashboard.grid.tf).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Network Providers (Farmers)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Buy a [3Router](../components/3router.md) and allow everyone to get access to the ThreeFold Network.
|
|||
|
- Earn rewards by doing so.
|
|||
|
- ThreeFold will only create the 3Routers once we have sold at least 10,000 of them.
|
|||

|
|||
|
- Web3 enthousiasts can run their blockchain workloads on the grid.
|
|||
|
- Web4 developers build the apps (experiences) of the future.
