## ThreeFold DePIN Launch: Project INCA
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
*Please do note the name INCA will prob still change.*
|
||||
|
||||
## 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.

## Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
The ThreeFold Grid architecture provides a myriad of cloud possibilities thanks to its interrelated layers.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The system has been designed to be scalable to a planet level.
|
||||
|
||||
- Mycelium is the Network Layer
|
||||
- 3Nodes are the nodes running Zero-OS which is our own operating System providing compute, storage and network capacity
|
||||
|
||||
### 3Nodes

||||
@ -15,46 +20,26 @@ A cloud needs hardware/servers to function. Servers of all shapes and sizes can
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Ultra Scalable
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This architecture scales to the planet.
|
||||
|
||||
## Zero-OS
|
||||
## Core Components
|
||||
|
||||
We have build our own operating system called Zero-OS, which was based starting from a Linux Kernel with as purpose to remove all the unnecessary complexities found on contemporary OS's.
|
||||
!!wiki.include page:components_links.md
|
||||
|
||||
Zero-OS supports a small number of primitives, and performs low-level functions natively.
|
||||
### Web3 & Decentralized AI Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
It delivers 3 primitive functions:
|
||||
Our Decentralized Cloud Technology the ideal platform for hosting any web3 and AI workloads.
|
||||
|
||||
- storage capacity
|
||||
- compute capacity
|
||||
- network capacity
|
||||
Our Zero-OS operating system already supports integrated GPUs, ensuring optimal performance for decentralized AI applications.
|
||||
|
||||
There is no shell, local nor remote attached to Zero-OS. Given its shell-less nature, the people and organizations, called farmers, that run 3nodes cannot issue any commands nor access its features. In that sense, Zero-OS enables a "zero people" (autonomous) Decentralzied Cloud, meaning hackers cannot get in, while also eliminating human error from the paradigm.
|
||||
> Any workload (web2/3 and AI) can run on on our Decentralized Cloud.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Mycelium Routers
|
||||
|
||||
Thanks to Mycelium Routers anyone can now operate as a network service provider.
|
||||
|
||||
Mycelium Routers seamlessly integrate with our Mycelium network technology, efficiently selecting the shortest path between all participants.
|
||||
|
||||
These Mycelium Routers are not only compatible with Wi-Fi but also with 4G and 5G networks, ensuring versatile connectivity options.

### Web Gateways
|
||||
|
||||
The Web Gateway is a mechanism to connect the private (overlay) networks (Mycelium) to the open Internet. By not providing an open and direct path in to the private network, a lot of malicious phishing and hacking attempts are stopped at the Web Gateway level for container applications.

> We do not compare our system with those that claim to be full cloud solutions but merely deploy containers using other management systems and optionally connect to a blockchain for billing purposes. Nor do we compare with marketplace systems that simply act as frontends for other systems. We believe these systems, while visually impressive, lack substantial technological foundations and cannot serve as a fundamental base layer for others.

## Zero-OS
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
ThreeFold has developed its own operating system, Zero-OS, which is based on the Linux Kernel. The purpose of Zero-OS is to strip away the unnecessary complexities commonly found in contemporary operating systems.
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Features of Zero-OS:**
|
||||
|
||||
Zero-OS is designed with minimalism in mind, supporting only a few fundamental primitives that handle essential low-level functions:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Storage Capacity**
|
||||
2. **Compute Capacity**
|
||||
3. **Network Capacity**
|
||||
|
||||
**Security and Simplicity:**
|
||||
|
||||
Zero-OS provides a Autonomous Decentralized Cloud.
|
||||
|
||||
This not only blocks hacker access but also eliminates human error, enhancing both security and reliability.
|
||||
|
||||
### Deployment by IT contract

||||
Secure Reproducable Verified Authenticated

||||
|

||||
|
||||
The purpose of the smart contract for IT is to create and enable autonomous IT. Autonomous self-driving IT is possible.

# Rethinking the Internet

|

**Understanding the Three Layers of the Internet**
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The Internet is made of 3 layers:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Compute & Storage:** This layer houses applications and is predominantly centralized, operating from vast data centers.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Network:** The network layer facilitates the movement of information, whether it's wireless, via cables like fiber, or through satellite links. Today, information often travels long distances, with a few companies controlling over 80% of the internet’s network capacity.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Applications:** These are hosted in large data centers, relying on the centralized compute and storage layers. This centralization makes the system vulnerable.
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Challenges**
|
||||
|
||||
Digital information primarily flows through extensive fiber backbone networks, as shown here:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The internet’s design causes inefficiencies, such as when two people in Zanzibar use a service like Zoom. Their data travels all the way to European data centers where Zoom's servers are hosted and back, leading to slow performance, decreased reliability, and increased costs.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**Issues with Autonomy and Sovereignty**
|
||||
|
||||
Our current internet model compromises autonomy and sovereignty. Most data is stored in large data centers controlled by a few major corporations, effectively turning users into products.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Moreover, the internet is replicated many times across various applications, each requiring its own full infrastructure. This approach is unsustainable and inefficient.

This retains the original structure and links, ensuring that the information is clear and the visual aids are effectively utilized.

For over 20 years, across more than seven startups, ThreeFold has been developing a fourth-generation base layer. This robust platform serves as a truly decentralized infrastructure, designed to be hosted by everyone, for everyone.
|
||||
|
||||
## ThreeFold: The Base Layer for DePin and Web 3
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||

# ThreeFold Grid Technology
|
||||
|
||||
ThreeFold has developed a highly efficient infrastructure layer for a new Internet.
|
||||
|
||||
Providing Internet & cloud capacity is as easy as getting a node and connecting it to the Internet.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
A lot of capacity has been deployed in the world, hundreds of ThreeFold farmers acquired a computer and connected it to the Internet, as such they use our operating system to provide Internet capacity to the world. Farmers can buy pre-built node or build their own via our DIY guides.
|
||||
|
||||
There are multiple ways in which people can interact with our platform, as a developer, a sysadmin, IT expert, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
All technology is developed by ThreeFold and is opensource, this technology is being used for the ThreeFold grid (see the [ThreeFold Website](https://www.threefold.io)) which is the deployment of a new Internet which is green, safe and owned by all of us.
|
||||
|
||||
This document explains how ThreeFold is the missing layer for the full web2, web3 and blockchain world.
|
||||
|
||||
This leads to a system which is highly scalable.

The OS does not have a login shell and does not allow people to log in with physical access to a keyboard and screen nor does it allows logins over the network. There is no way the 3node accepts user initiated login attempts.

- For certified capacity a group of known strategic vendors are able to lock the [BIOS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS) of their server range and make sure no-one but them can unlock and change features present in the BIOS. Some vendors have an even higher degree of security and can store private keys in chips in side the computer to provider unique identification based on private keys or have mechanisms to check wether the server has been opened / tampered with in the transportation from the factory / vendor to the Farmer. All of this leads to maximum protection on the hardware level.
