Proof-Of-Capacity
Stream users earn TFT via Liquid as monthly income for connecting Internet capacity to Stream via the ThreeFold Grid.
Proof-Of-Utilization
Stream users buy TFT via Liquid to store data and run applications privately on a peer-to-peer Internet infrastructure.
TFT is just one form of the Liquid current-see in order to incentivize participants to operate the Stream Network on the distributed Grid on behalf of Flows, communities, apps, dApps, and users, similar how Holofuel is used to incentivize the same for Holochain hApps.
