What do we do?
A truly reliable Internet requires fundamentally better systems for networking (communication), storage (data), and compute. The ThreeFold team has been developing these core capabilities for over 20 years.
Authentic, Secure & Globally Scalable Network Technology
- Our Mycelium network technology enables seamless, private communication between people and machines, anywhere in the world, using the most efficient path available.
- It integrates with a global edge network of ultra-connected, low-latency supernodes to deliver superior performance and resilience.
- Mycelium is designed to overcome the limitations of the traditional Internet, such as unreliability, poor performance, and security risks.
- It provides core services including Naming, Shortest Path Routing, End-to-End Encryption, Authentication, a Secure Message Bus, and Content Delivery (H2 2025).
Data Storage & Distribution
- Our Quantum-Safe Storage system enables users to store unlimited amounts of data with full ownership and control.
- As soon as data leaves the application or compute layer, it is encoded in a way that is resistant even to quantum-level attacks.
- Users have full control over data availability, redundancy, and geographic placement.
- The system supports multiple interfaces, including IPFS, S3, WebDAV, HTTP, and standard file system access.
- Data can never be corrupted, and the storage system is self-healing by design.
Secure Compute
- Self-Managing & Stateless: Requires no manual interactions, enabling fully autonomous operation across global infrastructure.
- Secure & Deterministic Deployments: Every workload is cryptographically verified and deployed with guaranteed consistency—no room for tampering or drift.
- Efficient Deployment Storage System (Zero-Image): Achieves up to 100x reduction in image size and transfer using a unique metadata-driven architecture.
- Compatible: Runs Docker containers, virtual machines, and Linux workloads seamlessly.
- Smart Contract-Based Deployment: Workloads are governed by cryptographically signed contracts, ensuring transparent, tamper-proof deployment and execution.
