Around the world, thousands of entities, from individuals to companies, have become ThreeFold farmers. They connect their computers, known as nodes, to the Internet and install our software. This allows them to provide GPU, compute, storage, and network capacity to the ThreeFold Grid.

Farmers have two options: they can either buy a ready-made node from our partners or build their own using our detailed DIY (Do It Yourself) guides.
