# ThreeFold
|
|
|
|
ThreeFold is the underlying layer on top of which Hero lives.
|
|
|
|
Companies or individuals invest in ThreeFold computers, wireless routers, or even 5G mobile antennas to provide Internet and Cloud Services to those around them.
|
|
|
|
The ThreeFold innovation lies in simplifying something incredibly complex, making it accessible and deployable by everyone. We have developed technology that enables anyone to become a Cloud and Internet service provider by creating an autonomous system capable of self-management without the need for human intervention.
|
|
|
|
Everyone can now:
|
|
|
|
* Be a Cloud Provider and deliver compute, storage and AI capabilities to people around you.
|
|
* Be a Wifi Provider and deliver reliable communication almost for free.
|
|
* Buy Internet connectivity and resell this connectivity to the people around you.
|
|
* Be a Telecom Operator and deliver 4/5G Telecommunication Services (end of 2024)
|
|
|
|
The results are astonishing:
|
|
|
|
* The cost of providing such infrastructure can be less than $2 USD per person per month for storage, compute, and network (telecom) services, which is significantly lower than current rates. This system has the potential to connect the 4 billion people who are currently offline, allowing anyone to earn money by providing these services without needing to be a tech expert.
|
|
* More than 90% of all data can be localized, reducing bandwidth requirements to the rest of the Internet by 90%. By acting as a content delivery network (CDN), you help save on bandwidth costs for everyone, while also enhancing performance.
|
|
* This platform enables new use cases, such as streaming virtual and augmented reality directly from the cloud to your mobile phone, offering ultra-realistic video quality without the need for expensive equipment.
|
|
* The system is designed to withstand war or natural disasters: as long as there are enough nodes and the Mycelium network is operational, it can continue providing connectivity at any time.
|
|
* Our data and applications are truly sovereign, allowing us to choose where our digital life resides. This could fundamentally change how the Internet works.
