DAO 3 Layer Approach

The threefold grid has 3 layers:

  • Layer 2 = ecosystem security layer
    • only 1 blockchain with 100 validators, secures the multiple Layer 1 networks.
  • Layer 1 = internet of blockchains layer
    • ultimate scale because of thousands (or more) of blockchains
  • Layer 0 = the IT capacity layer
    • cloud computing layer, provide compute, storage and network resources to L1 and L2

Validators play an important role in securing the ThreeFold ecosystem, a validator is a blockchain component run by independent parties who validate transactions happening on the blockchain until consensus has been achieved.
