Is this a separate new Internet?

No, ThreeFold is a complementary Internet and lives with and on top of the current Internet. From out of ThreeFold, you can still use the current Internet and interact with it.

Why do we need a new Internet?

The Internet used to be a peer-to-peer network, but has become fragile and too centralized. There are so many problems with the current Internet, such as authenticity, privacy, security, and sustainability, that we believe a fundamental new approach is needed.

This sounds too big, are you guys faking it?

We have been working on this for over 30 years and ThreeFold is the result of that work. We have a working product and a growing community of farmers, users, and partners. We're for real and we are here to stay.

You have 2 tokens, TFT and INCA, why?

Thanks to our community there are +60,000 virtual CPUs and +17,000 GB of storage available on the network. Check out our stats on the ThreeFold Dashboard. Our token TFT was used to build generation 1, 2 and 3 of the ThreeFold Grid. TFT is the reward for our loyal community. There can never be more than 1 billion TFT. We are now building generation 4 of the ThreeFold Grid and we need a new token for this. There will never be more than 3 billion INCA. Our partners will start selling new ThreeFold Nodes by the end of November 2024 with a new reward scheme, so we're ready to grow to millions of nodes.

How can I participate?

You can participate by becoming a farmer, a user, a partner or by developing a web4 app.

What is Web4?

Web4 is the next generation of the Internet, where users are 100% in control of their data and where there is 0 centralization. Blockchain was the first step to Web3, ThreeFold is the next step to Web4. ThreeFold is of course fully compatible with Web2 and Web3. In Web4, each user has a personal Virtual Digital Assistant which is called a Hero. This hero manages your digital life and, on your behalf, can interact with all versions of the Web.

How secure and private is my data?

ThreeFold is designed to be secure and private by default. We use end-to-end encryption to protect your data and ensure that only you have access to your data.

Do you offer custom plans for businesses?

Yes, we have a network of integrators who can help you design a custom plan.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept credit cards (v4) and our own tokens TFT and INCA.
