There are multiple tokens in the ThreeFold ecosystem:
- INCA = INternet CApacity (is the token of buying/selling Internet/Cloud Capacity)
- INCAG = INCA Generator token, mints token over time
- TFT = the creator token for grid 3.x, can convert at any time in INCAG Token
- 4 billion INCA will be created
### INCA-G
> INCA-G = INCA Generator (is a token generating INCA)
An INCA-G token generates INCA over a certain period. INCA stands for Internet Capacity token, enabling individuals to buy/sell Internet & Cloud Capacity.
We can analogize the generation of Cloud/Internet capacity to the generation of electricity. In this analogy, INCA is akin to the KWH token, while INCA-G is comparable to the KW token (representing capacity to generate electricity).
INCA-G tokens are unique and come with metadata specifying how INCA will be generated. This metadata outlines the generation schedule of INCA over the next X months.
### How to Acquire the INCA-G Token?
- converting from TFT
- buying from a pool as generated by a farming pool (others farm on your behalf)
- as an investor
