Proposal 134636

TLDR: I’ll adopt. Relevant decentralisation stats are unchanged, and there is a clear public declaration for each cordoned node (though one was missing from the proposal summary).

5 nodes removed due to cordoning, replaced with unassigned nodes in Switzerland, Belgium, Japan, Canada and Singapore. However, for one (in bold below) of the 5 removed nodes there is no reference to discussion/declaration by the NP, one with a clear reference that describes the DC in question as due for offboarding (MR1).

Motivation: The following nodes in subnet x33ed have been cordoned and need to be removed from the subnet:

After some searching around I managed to find the declaration that should have been linked to in the proposal → Proposal: Update Interim Gen-1 Node Provider Remuneration After 48 months - #59 by katiep

Decentralisation Stats

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

Smallest Distance Average Distance Largest Distance
EXISTING 0 km 7294.297 km 18505.029 km
PROPOSED 0 km 7359.621 km (+0.9%) 18505.029 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 Node Operator
EXISTING 5 26 34 34 34 34
PROPOSED 5 26 34 34 34 34

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

Continent Country Data Center Owner Node Provider Node Operator
EXISTING 15 3 1 1 1 1
PROPOSED 15 3 1 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)

You may wish to follow D-QUORUM if you found this analysis helpful.

Known Neurons to follow if you're too busy to keep on top of things like this

If you found this analysis helpful and would like to follow the vote of the LORIMER known neuron in the future, consider configuring LORIMER as a followee for the Subnet Management topic.

Additional good neurons to follow:

  • D-QUORUM (a highly decentralized neuron that follows neurons that have been elected by the NNS)
  • Synapse (currently follows the LORIMER and CodeGov known neurons for Subnet Management, and is a generally well informed known neuron to follow on numerous other topics)
  • CodeGov (actively reviews and votes on Subnet Management proposals, and is well informed on numerous other technical topics)
  • WaterNeuron (the WaterNeuron DAO frequently discuss proposals like this in order to vote responsibly based on DAO consensus)

Note that this analysis involved data provided by the IC-API, which is not open source. I’m in the process of switching over to more verifiable sources of this sort of information for future proposal reviews. See here for related discussion.
