## What is Farming?
|
||
|
||
ThreeFold Farming is a unique concept in the ThreeFold ecosystem where individuals (farmers) can:
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
- Deploy nodes (3Nodes) that connect to the ThreeFold Grid
|
||
- Contribute computing resources (data, cloud and network) to the decentralized ThreeFold Grid
|
||
- Earn rewards whenever your nodes provide capacity and are actively utilized on the grid.
|
||
- Support a peer-to-peer cloud infrastructure alternative to centralized providers

## The Power of 3Node
|
||
|
||
Anyone can become a ThreeFold Farmer by running nodes that contribute capacity to the grid.
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
### **3NODES**
|
||
|
||
The ThreeFold Nodes are self-healing and autonomous. They provide data, network and cloud resources to the ThreeFold Platform, becoming active contributors to a decentralized digital infrastructure.
|
||
Each node still delivers a powerful combination of modern technology and thoughtfully crafted design.

**A new bare metal operating system**
|
||
Zero-OS supports all required Web2 and Web3 workloads and allows millions of nodes to operate in full autonomous mode providing lower cost, better energy efficiency, more reliability and security.
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
**A Quantum Safe Storage System**
|
||
The Quantum Safe Storage System is capable of storing data indestructible, efficient, and ultra-scalable. Previous versions of this system are widely used to store Zetabytes of information by large organizations.
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
**A Quantum Safe Network System**
|
||
Mycelium can look for the shortest path, has a built-in naming & CDN (Content Delivery) system, can survive disaster and network cuts much more efficiently as is possible today.

## Build your own: DIY 3Node
|
||
|
||
ThreeFold makes it easy to become part of the network by setting up your own node. With compatible hardware, a stable internet connection, and a few simple steps, you can get started quickly and start contributing to the network and earning utilization rewards.

## The Evolution of Farming
|
||
|
||
### **A new chapter for capacity providers in the decentralized internet**
|
||
|
||
With the upcoming ThreeFold Marketplace (expected late Summer 2025), farming is evolving.
|
||
It’s now easier than ever to share resources and earn based on real usage through a transparent, peer-to-peer platform.
|
||
|
||
|
||
{{ horizontal_roadmap() }}
|
||
|
||
|
||
### **Why It Matters**
|
||
|
||
This evolution introduces clearer commercial opportunities and a more accessible path for farmers to support and benefit from the growth of the decentralized internet.
