# ThreeFold Cooperative
2024-03-21 09:36:08 +00:00
2024-04-03 08:20:50 +00:00
ThreeFold Dubai would like to hand over the day to day operation of the TFGrid to a cooperative.
2024-03-21 09:36:08 +00:00
2024-04-03 08:20:50 +00:00
- Cooperatives are trustworthy decentralized structures which allow millions of people to be part of a common goal
- Cooperative members vote for their directors
- Until this is done we will continue to operate from ThreeFold DMCC

## Cooperative Founder
2024-03-22 07:32:20 +00:00
TF Dubai is looking for 9 ThreeFold Cooperative Founders to setup the COOP Structure.

## Cooperative Director
2024-04-03 08:20:50 +00:00
The cooperative directors are chosen by the members by vote. When the coop is first created the 9 founders will act as de facto directors until the first vote.
2024-03-21 09:36:08 +00:00
2024-04-03 08:20:50 +00:00
The directors are like the board of a cooperative and help to structure how the cooperative members will vote and be part of the governance.
2024-03-21 09:36:08 +00:00
2024-04-03 08:20:50 +00:00
The cooperative will have a team which will carry out the day to day operations for the TFGrid.
The cooperative is funded by the utilization of the grid (40% at start).
2024-03-21 09:36:08 +00:00
2024-04-05 13:50:51 +00:00
Cooperative Directors and the team are remunerated for their contributions.

## Starting The Cooperative
2024-03-21 09:36:08 +00:00
2024-03-22 07:32:20 +00:00
- ThreeFold Dubai grants 2 million TFT to TF COOP (TF DMCC and others can grant more)
2024-04-03 08:20:50 +00:00
- TFCoop founders will look for initial funding (sell the TFT, look for extra)
- TFCoop founders will setup the cooperative in chosen jurisdiction (might be NL)
- TFCoop founders will work with TF9 for the technical implementation of membership (as NFT etc.)
