The Internet Needs an Upgrade
The Internet brings the world together, yet much of it is now concentrated in the hands of a few powerful corporations. This wasn't its original intent.
The Internet was envisioned as a decentralized, open space.
A tool for freedom, collaboration, and equal access for all.
ThreeFold has invented a new Data, Network, and Cloud system
as an engine for an upgraded Web4 Internet.
The Reason Behind It All
The Internet started as a peer-to-peer network, but over time it has become fragile and overly centralized. This shift has led to serious issues: misinformation is rampant, privacy and security are compromised, and half the world remains poorly connected.
Big tech companies now dominate the Internet, tracking our activities and influencing our decisions, consolidating control in ways that don't serve everyone equally...
Therefore we believe the Internet needs a fresh start—one that addresses these challenges with a focus on authenticity, equality, and sustainability for everyone.
Planet First. People First.

Why it Matters
For +30 years, we’ve dedicated ourselves to this vision, and ThreeFold is the culmination of that journey. Today, we have a fully operational product (V3) and a thriving community of farmers, users, and partners.
But we won’t stop here.
Web4 is the next generation of the Internet and our team has been working on it for +10 years—the Decentralized Cloud was the base layer to create Web4. As far as we know, we are the world’s first project approaching a fully functional Web4 infrastructure that places priority on both the planet and people.
Over the past decade, we’ve tackled complex challenges in areas such as data storage, secure overlay networking, and autonomous cloud security to bring this vision to life.
- Open Source.
- Authenticity.
- Simplicity.
