## Introduction
Decentralization, in our view, isn't solely about employing blockchain technology everywhere. Instead, we envision it as the culmination 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.

## V4.x ## V4.x
With V4.x, we aim at the first 100% independent grid deployment. Our next generation Grid has lots of improvements in relation to decentralization, see the specific document for 4.x
> mid to end 2024
- Run Independently means
- less than 20% of the validators or other tech components should be managed by TFTech or TFCloud
- less than 20% of the guardians are linked to TFTech or TFCloud
- guardians will have to decide on upgrades of 3nodes linked to their regional internet
- Anyone community in the world can run their own regional Internet without any help of TFCloud/TFTech.
- This basically means if TFTech and TFCloud would no longer exist and community has interest to keep on funding the project, then the project can continue by itself.
Following features make sure the grid can get to full independance.
- peer2peer billing & payment
- peer2peer deployments
- peer2peer farmering cooperative (group farmers to become more effective)
- compatibility with major money blockchains

# **The ThreeFolds 3.x Decentralization Model**
## Fully Decentralized Farming - TF Nodes
Today more than 500 farmers host the nodes which make up the TF Grid Network.
None of the ThreeFold Companies or its team has the ability to break this model, its our aim to have the farmers independant completely from Threefold.
## Grid Enhancement Proposals (GEP's)
The decisions that shape the technology and standards of ThreeFold are driven by the community through the Grid Enhancement Proposal (GEP) program. These proposals are reviewed and approved farmers, technical steering committee as well as the cooperative, ensuring that the best ideas rise to the top.
The GEPS are proposed by ThreeFold Dubai and published on Forum and registerd on TFChain.
The GEPS need to be voted for by the farming community.
GEPS deal with
- approve changes in protocol or anything which has impact on fundamental working of the TGGrid
- upgrades of the TFGrid with new software
- approve functionality & roadmap when needed (priorities)
## TF Validator Stacks
- The TFChain is our blockchain component in 3.x to provide identity, billing, capacity tracking, utilization tracking, pricing, ...
- TFGrid Validators are the control plane of the TFGrid and allows us to Interact with the TFGrid.
- A TFGrid Validator is combination of TFChain (blockchain node), Monitoring Nodes, TF Explorer, TF Hub, all Web Interfaces
- TFGrid Validators are run by TF Guardians
- The TF guardians get a monthly fixed fee for running the Validators (in TFT and/or INCA).
- ThreeFold Dubai is helping the guardians to do it right and gives support.
- Token minting (TFGrid 3) is executed by code and validated by the guardians to make sure there are no mistakes.
- Each TFGrid validator stack has a name as follows: $location.grid.tf the the dashboard would e.g. be dashboard.ghent.grid.tf, a global loadbalancer makes sure that normal users of the solution don't have to understand this naming convention
- Code & Protocol Changes need to be voted for by a DAO on the TFChain (our blockchain)
## The main players in the ecosystem
- +500 Farmers (people or companies hosting the nodes of the TF Grid)
- ThreeFold Dubai (DMCC) for all the grid management, promotion and token related activities. This is our main company from which we run the Opensource TFGrid project.
- ThreeFold BVI for specific token related activities
- TF9, the tech company who develops the opensource code, all code is available for ThreeFold Dubai as well as any other opensource enthousiast, TF9 will commercialize the tech for commercial usecases. TF9 has nothing to do with the tokens TFT and/or INCA.
- ThreeFold CH (Switzerland), not used right now

# **The ThreeFolds 4.0 Decentralization Model**
## Fully Decentralized Farming - TF Nodes
Today more than 500 farmers host the nodes which make up the TF Grid Network.
None of the ThreeFold Companies or its team has the ability to break this model, its our aim to have the farmers independant completely from Threefold.
We expect to have many thousands of independent compute, storage, Network farmers in the world. This is the true nature of our decentralization.
The communication between the marketplace, 3Nodes, Farming Pool Agents and other participants all goes over the mycelium network which leads to an full peer2peer control and communication plane. All communication is end2end encrypted, all messages are signed by the participants.
The billing & tracking of capacity in v 4.0 will be based on a mutual credit and capacity accounting system which is carried and peer2peer executed by the farmers.
## Farming Pools
Many people will want to he a hoster of capacity but not have to deal with the duties of being a farmer, they can connect to a farming pool and add their capacity to such a pool.
They can chose the farming pool they like, farming pools can be DAO's by themselves, they organize their own governance indepent of ThreeFold. A Farming pool defines the price, service levels, ... A Farming pool defines how the proceeds are split over their members.
We expect that more than 80% of the capacity in the future will be provider over Farming Pools, in our opinion this leads to a super decentralized structure while making it possible to provide strong SLA's.
## Grid Enhancement Proposals (GEP's)
The decisions that shape the technology and standards of ThreeFold are driven by the community through the Grid Enhancement Proposal (GEP) program. These proposals are reviewed and approved farmers, technical steering committee as well as the cooperative, ensuring that the best ideas rise to the top.
The GEPS are proposed by the ThreeFold Cooperation and/or ThreeFold Dubai.
The GEPS need to be voted for by the farming and user community, the exact rules of voting are still being worked on, we are learning from our 3.x experience.
GEPS deal with
- approve functionality & roadmap (priorities)

## TF Protectors run the TF Grid Validators
We have been learning from what Hashgraph did and we like their model (see here for more [info](https://hedera.com/blog/decentralized-on-hedera)).
ThreeFolds validator consensus model is addressing the challenges of decentralization in a practical way. It brings together up to 9 to 30 term-limited organizations (TF Protectors) from across multiple continents, ensuring a truly global perspective.
Each TF Protector does the following
- operate a [TF Validator Clusters](TFValidatorCluster.md), which requires an investment and requires an operational team
- validate the code written and sign off on the changes (validation step on code & functionality)
- validate the GEP's and execute a VETO right if needed, the TF Protectors can stop a GEP.
- validate and approve the GUP's
Each Protector member has an equal vote, which prevents any single entity from gaining undue influence and keeps the governance balanced and fair.
ThreeFolds proof-of-stake model (v4.x) has been designed to prevent the concentration of power. Nodes gain influence only when $TFT or $INCA is staked to them by individual users, ensuring that the community has a direct role in the networks governance.
## TF Cooperative
In 2025, we plan to establish a Cooperative structure that will unite and represent the interests of all TFGrid Farmers as well as TFGrid Users.
Cooperatives are powerful, regulated entities with a long history of promoting decentralization and community-driven governance. By forming a cooperative, we can create a structure that not only aggregates the voices and needs of our farmers and users but also provides a legally recognized framework for truly decentralized decision-making.
Cooperatives are uniquely suited to the decentralized ethos of the ThreeFold Grid. They operate on democratic principles, ensuring that each member—whether a farmer or user—has an equal say in the direction and operation of the network. This approach aligns perfectly with our vision of a decentralized, peer-to-peer infrastructure where power is distributed, not concentrated.
Moreover, cooperatives are recognized globally as legitimate and effective governance structures. This recognition will help us engage with regulatory bodies and broader societal systems, ensuring that the decentralized nature of the ThreeFold Grid is respected and protected as we continue to grow.
The TF Grants, distribution of Farming & Promotion Rewards will all be arranged by the TF Cooperative.
Please note that the rewards and grants only unlock over 3 to 4 years.
As long as the TF Cooperative is not up and running ThreeFold Dubai will keep on executing this role and provide full transparancy to the community.
## Development & OpenSource
The development of ThreeFold is an open, collaborative process. All software powering the network, including services and developer tools, is open-sourced under an Apache 2.0 license. The decentralized development model encourages contributions from a wide range of participants, including the ThreeFold developer community. This approach improves innovation and ensures that the platform continuously evolves to meet the needs of its users.

## TF Validator Cluster
In version 4.0 we will have minimum 9, maximum 30 Protectors (commercial partners from different continents) who run a TF Validator Cluster.
Each TF Validator Cluster has following functions
- consensus chains e.g. the TFChain for 3.x Grid, TF Validators for 4.x grid
- TF explorers (interfaces to allow us to digest and find the relevant information easier from the TFGrid)
- TF Hub's (conversion service from docker to deduped filesystems as used for our compute workloads).
- a node for the Bridging functionality (TFT/INCA support on multiple chains)
- CI/CD Service for TFGrid code (Continuous Integration, Continuous Development)
- All necessary webservices (websites, manuals, UI)
- TF Marketplace & Components as relevant for the TF Liquidity Pool.

## ThreeFold DePIN Launch: Project INCA > TODO: explain how our marketcap and liquidity is too low in relation to the potential
Welcome to the Project INCA by ThreeFold.
With the project INCA, we want to create a decentralized future for ThreeFold by means of a launch in the DePIN ecosystem on top of Solana.
## Contributing to DePIN community
The current marketcap of the project is under 40 million USD, while other DePIN projects have marketcaps of 1 billion USD and more.
We believe that ThreeFold is ready and has rock solid technology to offer to the DePIN space. We think that what ThreeFold has to offer is comptabile to this space and that we can work in parallel and under many if not all projects in the DePIN space.
ThreeFold now has the necessary support from a lot of parties. We are entering a new exciting phase: Project INCA.

# DePIN Launch Plan B
> In case not enough funding was found.
ThreeFold is expanding to the DePIN market.
- TFT is the token for the TFGrid 3.x
- It's our creator and founder token
- INCA is the token for the TFGrid 4.x
- It's our commercialization token
- It will be used on the INCA marketplace
- During 2024 the price between INCA & TFT is fixed
- 1 TFT buys 2 INCA
- From Jan 1 2025, the price is defined by market and will be in line to available INCA in liquidity pool.
## Two New Tokens on Solana
We launch 2 new tokens called INCA and INCA-G.
### INCA
> INCA = INternet CApacity (is the token of buying/selling Internet/Cloud Capacity)
- 4 billion INCA will be created
- 2 billion INCA can be bought by TFT holders transferring TFT to INCA (1 TFT buys 2 INCA)
- 2 billion INCA will be used to launch the next generation of our grid in the DePIN ecosystem
<br>
### INCA-G
> INCA-G = INCA Generator (is a token generating INCA typically over 48 months)
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.
!!wiki.include page:'projectinca:inca.md'
## How to Acquire the INCA-G Token?
### Round 1: SwissBorg & TF Cooperative
1 INCA-G token generates 15,000 INCA over 48 months.
1 INCA-G can be bought:
- From SwissBorg for 500 CHF
- Crypto-enabled bank in Switzerland
- Maximum sold is 5,000 INCA-G tokens
- with TFT which is the founder creator currency of the current grid
- There will never be more than 1 billion TFT
- 1 INCA-G token costs 10,000 TFT (\*)
> (\*) The pricing will depend on price of TFT at that moment.
### Round 2: **A**frica and Latin **A**merica INCA-G Tokens (AA)
1 INCA-G AA Token generates 10,000 INCA over 48 months.
AA stands for Africa and latin America
- From SwissBorg for *TBD* CHF.
The incoming funds will be used to generate Cloud & Internet capacity in these regions, <br>which are serious growth regions in the world.
## INCA Governance
A Wisdom Council approves budgets in line to tokenomics above.
The ThreeFold Wisdom Council will have 9 members in total. For any decision taken by the council, at least 6 must agree to go forward.
### Council Members
We start with 7 members and 2 more members will need to be added later on.
- 1 OurWorld (Kristof)
- 1 ThreeFold DMCC (Adnan)
- 1 TF9 (Jan)
- 1 Sikana (Greg)
- 1 CodeScalers (Nayer)
- 1 ThreeFold COOP (Sabrina)
- The COOP project is still ongoing and will still be created.
- 1 GreenEdge (MWW)
### Budget Allocation
- Budgets get allocated to projects on git.threefold.info
- Clear stories with clear budget allocations and cashflow tracking or time tracking
## TFT
The total supply of TFT is currently around 960 million TFT, while the max supply is 1 billion TFT.
## 3 Tokens: TFT, INCA & INCA-G
The 3 tokens co-exist within the TF ecosystem.
TFT has a max supply of 1 billion, INCA has a max supply of 4 billion. INCA-G generates INCA over a given period of time.
#### Implementation
- TFT is a token on Stellar blockchain (the original farming token)
- INCA is a token on Solana Blockchain (as digital currency for Internet Capacity)
- INCA-G Implemented as an NFT on the Solana Blockchain.
All can and will be bridged on multiple blockchains.
#### Metadata for INCA-G
Each INCA-G NFT contains information.
- Release date
- List of values
- Each value is the number of INCA tokens to be released monthly for a given period of time

- We want to expand and build our project in first place together with the community
- 5% for liquidity providing (DEX, marketmakers, ...)
- 2.5% ThreeFold Dubai holdings (held by the company who manages and promotes the grid)
- 10% For Investors
- 12.5% for team and contributor rewards
> Do note this table is still under deliberation and can change
## Release Schedule
![](img/token_release_stacked.png)
- Investors release over 2 years, in equal tranches.
- Farmer rewards are released over 3 years.
- Ecosystem rewards over 4 years
This leads to following maximum unlocking table
![](img/token_release.png)
The vesting accelerates if the token price gets above 0.5 USD, for each 0.1 USD above additional 10% unlocks into the INCA Liquidity pool.
Thanks to the liquidity pool the price remains stable even if people decide to chose the option to unvest faster.

The network of nodes which make up the cloud. Each node provides compute, storage and network capacity.
![](img/3node.png)
A cloud needs hardware/servers to function. Servers of all shapes and sizes can be added. The production of Cloud Capacity is called Farming and parties who add these servers to the grid are called Farmers.
Farmers download the Zero-OS operating system and boot their servers. Once booted, these servers become 3Nodes. The 3Nodes will register themselves in a blockchain. Once registered, the capacity of the 3Nodes will become available. This enables a peer2peer environment for people or companies to reserve their Internet Capacity directly from the hardware but yet allowing full control by commercial parties if that would be required.

# Hero as Virtual System Administrator and more
![](img/3bot_virtualsysadmin.png)
Every individual has a personal Hero—a virtual assistant that manages your digital life and serves as your system administrator for AI or Edge Cloud workloads.
These Heroes communicate with each other over the private Mycelium network, which offers a secure message bus for scalable and secure communication.
A Hero can store an unlimited amount of information, and only your Hero has access to this data, deciding how and when it can be shared with other Heroes or AI systems.
Active 24/7, your Hero continuously monitors your IT infrastructure. If something goes wrong, the Hero will automatically resolve the issue, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted service.
### Natural Evolution

# Architecture for an Upgraded Internet
!!wiki.include page:'internet_archtecture0.md'
#### 3Nodes
Each 3node provides compute, storage and network capacity, its the core capacity layer of the cloud.
![](img/3node.png)
A cloud needs hardware/servers to function. Servers of all shapes and sizes can be added. The production of Cloud Capacity is called Farming and parties who add these servers to the grid are called Farmers.
Farmers download the Zero-OS operating system and boot their servers. Once booted, these servers become 3Nodes. The 3Nodes will register themselves in a blockchain. Once registered, the capacity of the 3Nodes will become available. This enables a peer2peer environment for people or companies to reserve their Internet Capacity directly from the hardware but yet allowing full control by commercial parties if that would be required.
Each 3Node is running our Zero-OS operating system.
#### Mycelium Routers
Mycelium is an end-to-end encrypted overlay meshed wireless network with agents available for any desktop and mobile operating system.
We have also created a dedicated Mycelium Router. Mycelium Routers seamlessly integrate with our Mycelium network technology, efficiently selecting the shortest path between all participants.
These Mycelium Routers are compatible not only with Satelite, Wi-Fi but also with 4G and 5G networks, ensuring versatile connectivity options.
The Mycelium Routers can be installed in locations with substantial network capacity, allowing everyone to bridge between the current Internet and the overlay Mycelium network.
#### Web Gateways
The Web Gateway serves as a mechanism to connect the private (overlay) networks (Mycelium) to the open Internet.
By not providing an open and direct path into the private network, many malicious phishing and hacking attempts are stopped at the Web Gateway level for container applications.
The Web Gateways provide HTTP(S) and, in the future, other web services, which get forwarded to the relevant service exposing itself over Mycelium. This setup offers multiple access points to various backend services.

# Government, Commercial hosters, Telco and Enterprise Roadmap
We are working on our Government, Commercial hosters, Telco and Enterprise Release of our Technology.
> 90% of the work has been done as part of our base offering but we need additional features for enterprise
## Enterprise User Interface
The current user interface is designed for an open-source tech audience. For enterprise use, we need a different approach to meet the unique needs of enterprise environments:
- **Private or Hybrid Context**: All operations should be conducted within a private or hybrid cloud context to ensure security and compliance.
- **Enhanced Monitoring**: We need more comprehensive monitoring dashboard screens to provide real-time insights and analytics.
- **Identity Management Integration**: Integration with enterprise-grade Identity Management solutions, such as LDAP, Active Directory, and SSO (Single Sign-On), is essential.
- **Enterprise-Friendly UI**: The user interface needs to be redesigned to be more intuitive and tailored to enterprise users, focusing on usability and efficiency.
- **Token Irrelevance**: Tokens are not a priority in this context and should be de-emphasized in the solution.
## Windows Support
The virtual Machine technology we use does support windows, but we need to do some further integration.
## High Performance Network Integration
- **Local Network Integration**: Zero-OS is designed to support a wide range of technologies, though additional integration work is required to optimize performance.
- **High-Speed Backbones**: We aim to support high-speed Ethernet and RDMA (Infiniband) based backbones.
- **Instrumentation Enhancements**: Additional instrumentation needs to be incorporated into Zero-OS to achieve optimal performance.
- **Target Performance**: Our goal is to achieve network speeds exceeding 100 Gbps.
- **Custom Integration**: We offer integration with selected network equipment from our customers, accommodating custom integration requirements.
## High Performance Storage Block Device Integration
Next to the existing already integrated storage backends we want to support a high performance redundant storage block device.
- High performance redundant storage network
- Supports our high speed backbone as defined above
- Scalable to thousands of machines per cluster.
- Replication capability between zones.
- **Custom Integration**: We offer integration with selected storage equipment from our customers, accommodating custom integration requirements.
## Service Level Management
- The system will have hooks and visualization for achievement of Service levels.
- This will allow a commercial service provider to get to higher revenue and better uptime management.
## Support for Liquid Cooling tanks
- Do a test setup in liquid cooling rack or node, we can use our selfhealing capabilities to manage better.
- Is Integration effort, not really code changes

# The Cloud: Beyond Cost A Business Perspective
## Introduction
The transition to cloud computing isn't solely driven by cost savings.
While affordability is a factor, the primary appeal of cloud services lies in their reliability, scalability, and performance.
This parallels the concept of insurance, where customers are willing to pay a premium for the assurance of superior service and uptime.
In the decentralized infrastructure (DePIN) space, establishing trust and reliability is super important, but not enough available in current offerings.
## Cost vs. Quality
### Reliability and Uptime
Customers often prefer to pay a higher price for cloud services that guarantee better uptime and reliability.
For example, paying $10 per terabyte for a service with stellar uptime and customer support is more appealing than a $5 per terabyte service with frequent downtimes and minimal support. The value proposition lies in uninterrupted access to data and services, which is critical for business operations.
### Service Level Agreements (SLAs)
Service Level Agreements (SLAs) play a crucial role in this decision-making process.
SLAs provide a clear, contractual guarantee of the service levels customers can expect. Companies offering robust SLAs with high uptime guarantees, fast response times, and comprehensive support are more attractive, even at a higher cost.
## Decentralized Infrastructure (DePIN) and Trust
### Challenges in DePIN
One of the significant challenges in DePIN is ensuring that customers can trust decentralized hosters.
Unlike traditional centralized providers, decentralized hosters need to establish credibility and reliability in a market that is inherently less controlled.
### Farming Pools and Legal Decentralization
#### Formation of Farming Pools
Hosters can group together in farming pools, creating a collaborative environment where resources and responsibilities are shared. These pools can offer combined storage and computational power, enhancing overall performance and reliability.
#### Security Token Offerings (STOs)
To fund these farming pools, we can utilize Security Token Offerings (STOs). Investors can buy tokens, representing shares in these pools, thus promoting legal decentralization. This model not only democratizes investment but also ensures that the operations of these pools are transparent and regulated.
### Transparency and Legal Assurance
#### Open SLAs
Each farming pool must be explicit about the SLAs they can deliver. Transparency in service commitments ensures that customers know what performance and reliability to expect. This openness is critical in building trust in a decentralized environment.
#### Legal Blockchain Contracts
Blockchain contracts must be legally binding in the real world. These contracts should clearly define the terms of service, dispute resolution mechanisms, and compliance with relevant regulations. Legal enforceability ensures that customers can trust the decentralized hosters to honor their commitments.
