Subnet Management - 5kdm2 (Application)

Proposal 132180

TLDR: I’ve adopted this proposal. Two dead nodes replaced with two up nodes :+1:This also has the side-effect of a slight increase in decentralisation in terms of average geographic distance between nodes and country diversity :cherries:

Decentralisation Stats

Subnet node distance stats (distance between any 2 nodes in the subnet) →

Smallest Distance Average Distance Largest Distance
EXISTING 3.534 km 7115.008 km 16955.201 km
PROPOSED 3.534 km 7231.464 km (+1.6%) 16955.201 km

This proposal slightly increases decentralisation, considered purely in terms of geographic distance (and therefore there’s a slight theoretical increase in localised disaster resilience). :+1:

Subnet characteristic counts →

Continents Countries Data Centers Owners Node Providers
EXISTING 4 10 13 13 13
PROPOSED 4 11 (+9.1%) 13 13 13

This proposal slightly improves decentralisation in terms of jurisdiction diversity. :+1:

Largest number of nodes with the same characteristic (e.g. continent, country, data center, etc.) →

Continent Country Data Center Owner Node Provider
EXISTING 5 2 1 1 1
PROPOSED 6 (+20%) 2 1 1 1

See here for acceptable limits → Motion 132136

The above subnet information is illustrated below, followed by a node reference table:

Map Description
  • Red marker represents a removed node (transparent center for overlap visibility)
  • Green marker represents an added node
  • Blue marker represents an unchanged node
  • Highlighted patches represent the country the above nodes sit within (red if the country is removed, green if added, otherwise grey)
  • Light grey markers with yellow borders are examples of unassigned nodes that would be viable candidates for joining the subnet according to formal decentralisation coefficients (so this proposal can be viewed in the context of alternative solutions that are not being used)
