Consensus geography describes the physical distribution of nodes and validators participating in a blockchain’s consensus mechanism across different geographical locations. This spatial distribution impacts network latency, censorship resistance, and overall system resilience. A diverse consensus geography contributes to a more robust and decentralized network.

Reports often analyze the geographic concentration of mining pools or staking validators, assessing potential vulnerabilities to localized regulatory actions or physical attacks.
