# EOS BP Global Distributed (We can do better) by @controllinghand 7/25/2018 # Looking at how the current Block Producers for EOS are distributed you can see a few major gaps.  `Gap 1 Continent Africa` `Gap 2 Continent Australia & Oceania` # So how can we address this issue? We have 2 options 1) Ask our current top 21 BP to place nodes in these areas. But, that doesn't really address the issue since the home office location wouldn't be on these continents. 2) Vote for BPs that are already located in these areas # Let's focus on option 2 Who are valid BP candidates that we should consider? There are only 5 currently in these areas 1) EOS Nairobi *current rank 43 2) EOS Africa *current rank 38 3) GenerEOS *current rank 37 4) EOSphere *current rank 55 5) AlohaEOS *current rank 84 # Before we just vote for these BPs lets do some validation Here is a link to a list of validation tools I use https://eosratings.com/bp-validation/ # Let's Validate BP EOS Nairobi *Location*  *Validation Check 1*  *Validation Check 2*  There are a few issues here but nothing that can't be fixed. https://validate.eosnation.io/producers/eosnairobike.html # Lets Validate EOSAfrica *Location*  *Validation Check 1*  Looks like the need to update the API SSL *Validation Check 2*  There are a few issues here but nothing that can't be fixed. https://validate.eosnation.io/producers/eosafricaone.html # Lets Validate GenerEOS *Location*  *Validation Check 1*  *Validation Check 2*  There are a few issues here but nothing that can't be fixed. https://validate.eosnation.io/producers/aus1genereos.html # Lets Validate EOSphere *Location*  *Validation Check 1*  *Validation Check 2*  # Lets Validate AlohaEOS *Location*  *Validation Check 1*  *Validation Check 2*  # Bonus Points Please visit this site for more details https://eosratings.com/vam/ GenerEOS has 4 Value Add Tools for the EOS Community AlohaEOS has 3 Value Add Tools for the EOS Community # Summary Based on these validation we all should be voting for these 5 BP. Here would be my order based on this data 1) AlohaEOS passes all validations and gets bonus points for being on the vam 2) EOSphere passes all validations 3) GenerEOS passed one validation and gets bonus points for being on the vam 4) EOSNairobi passes one validation 5) EOSAfrica If you like this research but don't have the time to do the research and want to have someone proxy vote for you I maintain a proxy at `truthseekers`. Also, you might consider `eoswatchdogs` as I'm part of that team as well.
