<h1> Decentralization </h1>
Decentralization, in our view, isn't solely about employing blockchain technology everywhere.
- Instead, we envision it as the result of a global community collaborating transparently, sharing everything they do, and actively seeking feedback.
- Our goal is to ensure that the platform we deploy operates in the most distributed and decentralized manner possible.
For us Decentralization if a very serious topic and is achieved in following way:
- [DePIN](depin.md) / [INCA](inca.md)
- The INCA token is the utility like token as used in the ecosystem to let the DePIN flywheel work.
- DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) refers to blockchain-based networks that enable decentralized ownership, operation, and coordination of physical infrastructure, such as cloud, data and network capacity, incentivized through tokenized rewards and governed by community stakeholders.
- [ThreeFold DAO](dao.md)
- **Decentralized Autonomous Organization**, is an organizational structure that operates through smart contracts on a blockchain, with decision-making processes carried out in a decentralized and autonomous manner.
- [Farming Pools](farmingpool.md)
- Group farmers in DAO structures, which could be also legally backed by separate dedicated cooperatives.
- Each farming pool takes care of management of SLA (service levels), pricing, support, communication to its related farmers.
- The Farming pools run their own voting process to manage their operations.
- [Cooperative](coop.md)
- Has mainly a coordination role around Development, Farming Pools, DAO's, Upgrades, ...
- Promotion of the TFGrid and its ecosystem.
- Safeguards the decentralization pricinples and the governance.
- Required operational tasks in relation to anything to the interest of the TF Community.
- [TF Validators](tfvalidatorcluster.md)
- The technical components which run the code for the Blockchain (DAO) and other components needed to technically operate the TF Grid.
- There are multiple independent Validators which run such a validator stack.
