As a node owner, you receive monthly tokens for the capacity you make available.
Using applications yourself
Start with Nextcloud storage, host a WordPress website or use one of the many other applications.
Significantly lower costs
Save significantly on costs including cloud storage, hosting and licensing.
Benefits for all
Much less energy consumption
The network uses much less energy than energy-guzzling data centers.
Environmentally friendly infrastructure
Less power, hardware and resources. Instead of giant data centers, just place the compact node in your meter closet.
No more censorship possible
Data is spread across thousands of nodes; no central party can see or block data.
Power moves to users
The Internet will belong to everyone, not a handful of mega-corporations with all the power.
An independent Internet for and from all
Together with people and businesses around the world, build an independent, decentralized Internet for and from everyone.
That's how you build it. And that's how you use it
We are making it as simple as possible to take advantage of this revolutionary new Internet. See how you can help build and use it.
Nodes
With a node, you create capacity for the decentralized Internet. For this you receive monthly income in the form of tokens. You can also use the node yourself, for example for data storage or to host your website.
Cloud storage
With a Nextcloud environment on your own node, you manage your data completely yourself, securely and without third-party intervention. You have access to your files on your computer and mobile. We help you with the installation and to start using it easily.
Mobile Phone
Available soon, this new cell phone seamlessly connects to the ThreeFold Cloud, protects your privacy and security with an ad- and tracking-free operating system, and offers maximum control over your data thanks to open-source encryption.
VPN
This VPN service offers ultimate online security and privacy. Unique technology makes you completely untraceable and anonymous, unlike any other VPN. Available soon.
From shortcomings to opportunities: democratization, privacy and reduced energy consumption by Web4 internet
Today’s Internet has brought a lot, but it also has major shortcomings. Because much of the global data storage is concentrated in a small number of large companies, the internet is vulnerable, you have no control over your data and privacy, censorship is increasingly practiced, and an awful lot of energy is needed with major environmental consequences.
For all these shortcomings, there is a great alternative: the decentralized Web4 internet, developed by ThreeFold.
This organization is working to create a decentralized and environmentally friendly Internet where everyone can contribute and benefit. The ThreeFold Grid is a global network of “3Nodes” that provide computing power, storage and connectivity. This system democratizes the Internet by giving ownership and control back to individuals and businesses and uses efficient technology so that significantly less energy is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Read the answers to the most frequently asked questions here.
What is Threefold's decentralized Internet?
Threefold’s decentralized Internet is a network that operates completely independently, without central control. It gives users ownership of their data, offers complete privacy, and operates with a minimal carbon footprint.
Why should I use the decentralized Internet instead of traditional alternatives?
The decentralized Internet offers privacy, no censorship, ownership of your data and lower energy costs. In addition, you contribute to an independent Internet that is accessible to all.
What is a node and why do I need one?
A node is a device that adds capacity (such as storage and computing power) to the network. By using a node, you actively contribute to the decentralized Internet while generating revenue in the form of tokens for the capacity you make available.
How secure is the decentralized Internet?
The decentralized Internet is designed to make your data as secure as possible. Thanks to advanced encryption, decentralization and a unique ownership system, your data is yours alone and completely protected from access by third parties, including large tech companies or ISPs.
This makes the decentralized Internet secure:
- Advanced encryption: Only you can access your data thanks to strong encryption. No one else can see or use your data.
- No centralized control: Your data is not managed by one company or server, but stored scattered on a network of nodes. This prevents hacks and data breaches that occur with traditional cloud services.
- Full ownership: You own your data and storage infrastructure, which means no one else has control over what you do.
- Metadata protection: Even metadata, such as who sends your data and when, is completely shielded. Your online behavior remains completely private.
- Reliable backups: Data is stored in a global network of nodes, ensuring that there are always secure and redundant backups without others having access.
With the decentralized Internet, you are independent of large companies and always keep full control of your data, while benefiting from a secure, robust and privacy-friendly system.
Can I transfer my existing applications (such as websites and data storage) to the decentralized Internet?
Yes, with our services such as decentralized hosting and storage, you can easily migrate your existing applications to the decentralized Internet.
