Web3 decentralization report

How concentrated decentralized networks really are at the infrastructure level. For each network we measure what share of its nodes sit on a single hosting provider and in a single country — computed by joining the public web3 node map to our IPv4 ASN / org / geo intelligence. Lower top-provider and top-country shares mean a more genuinely decentralized network.

How we measure decentralization

A network can have thousands of nodes yet still be highly centralized if most of those nodes run inside a handful of cloud providers or in one country. We surface that by resolving each node’s public IP to its hosting network (ASN), operator and country — exactly the data on every IP page — then computing each network’s distribution across those dimensions.

The top-provider share is the percentage of a network’s nodes on its single largest hosting ASN/operator; the top-country share is the same for geography. These are first-order concentration measures: useful, quotable, and reproducible from the public per-network node lists. They count reachable nodes, not stake or hashpower.

Decentralization — FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the decentralization report measure?

For each network it measures infrastructure concentration: the share of nodes running on the single largest hosting provider (ASN/operator) and in the single largest country. A network can have thousands of nodes yet still be centralized if most sit in a few clouds or one country. The figures count reachable nodes, not stake or hashpower.

How is the data calculated?

We take each network's public node list, resolve every node IP to its hosting network, operator and country using the same IP intelligence shown on every IP page, and compute the distribution across those dimensions. It is reproducible from public per-network peer data.

Does this measure how secure or trustworthy a network is?

No. It is a first-order infrastructure-distribution measure, not a security or trust rating. Lower top-provider and top-country shares indicate a network whose reachable nodes are spread across more providers and places, which is one of several aspects of decentralization.
