October marked another strong step forward in ThreeFold’s journey. From new Mycelium Network capabilities to progress in commercialization and economics, every initiative is converging toward one clear goal: building a better Internet – decentralized, sustainable, and owned by the people.
As we move toward commercial utilization, the foundation is being set for farmers (hosters), builders, and partners to thrive in an open and resilient internet economy, one powered by collaboration, innovation, and shared value.
TF Grid 3.18 Mainnet Release
We’re thrilled to announce that TF Grid 3.18 is ready for Mainnet release. This version brings significant upgrades to TFChain, ZOS, RMB, and Mycelium, enhancing performance, stability, and user experience across the board.
New features include a twin ownership transfer flow, improved proxy and connectivity support, an updated UI, and VPN functionality for macOS and Windows.
Thanks to everyone who voted on the recent proposal to bring version 3.18 of the Grid to Mainnet! The upgrade will take place next week, and we’ll share further communication ahead of the migration to ensure a smooth transition.

TF Grid 4 Economics Community Ebook
In the first part of October, we introduced the TF Grid 4 Economics Community E-Book, a transparent, community-driven plan outlining proposed updates to ThreeFold’s token model and a new liquidity framework built to create lasting value for farmers, holders, and the wider ecosystem.
We first created and shared the initial proposal with the community, gathered valuable feedback, and refined it into the version presented during the November 4th community call. Together, we are shaping a fair and balanced economic foundation for the next phase of ThreeFold. See below for more.
ThreeFold Commercialization in Motion
- The commercialization phase of the ThreeFold Grid is progressing well. The Kubernetes Cloud offering is technically complete and will be introduced soon, and the Mycelium Network is expanding with new VPN, DNS, and chat features.
- Several major offtaker agreements have been signed for 2026, signaling the beginning of real-world utilization across diverse industries. As we complete the final TFT minting and shift to a utilization-based revenue model, farmers will earn directly from real-world demand, ensuring a fair and sustainable exchange of value.

Community Call: Project Mycelium
During the latest community call earlier this week, the team shared an update on ThreeFold’s transition from years of development to commercial execution. Our new platform (version 4) will be called Project Mycelium, embodying a vision of an organic, interconnected network that complements existing cloud systems while advancing digital sovereignty.
The call highlighted challenges and focuses, deployment plans and partnerships, the Mycelium Cloud ecosystem, and the updated economic model – built to protect long-term value while rewarding real utility.
There is a lot of information to read and digest here and we invite thoughts and feedback here.
Looking Ahead
It’s time to make 2026 the breakthrough year for ThreeFold. As we transition towards Project Mycelium, we’re focused on protecting the token economy and creating real commercial traction. Let’s keep momentum and collaboration strong! Thank you all for your continued belief and support.
