This motion proposes the creation of a mainnet subnet called the "G20 Subnet" and authorizes the (re)assignment of up to 13 existing Gen-2 nodes located in G20 member states to establish a secure, resilient, and jurisdictionally diverse subnet. Please refer to the summary of the proposal for the full details of the motion.

This motion proposes the creation of a mainnet subnet, the G20 Subnet, designed as a globally credible default production environment composed exclusively of Gen-2, encryption-ready nodes distributed across key G20 jurisdictions, collectively representing approximately 85% of global GDP.

The objective of the G20 Subnet is to provide developers and enterprises with a clearly defined, geopolitically balanced deployment environment suitable for globally distributed applications, particularly in payments, fintech, and other regulated or high-value use cases. By explicitly spanning multiple major economies, the subnet reduces regulatory concentration risk, increases resilience to regional policy changes, and strengthens credibility for applications that must operate across borders.

A purpose-built G20 Subnet removes the need for developers to justify a deployment’s global suitability on a case-by-case basis. Its jurisdictional diversity and standardized hardware security baseline are explicit by design, simplifying compliance discussions and accelerating enterprise adoption.

The subnet is intended to be composed entirely of Gen-2 hardware, enabling hardware-assisted memory encryption and a consistent, high-security baseline appropriate for sensitive workloads. This aligns the subnet with the expectations of regulated industries and applications that handle high-value transactions.

An initial pool of candidate nodes across G20 member countries (including Argentina, Australia, Canada, India, Japan, South Africa, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States) has been identified and documented in the accompanying forum post. These nodes are presented as an example candidate set rather than a fixed or exhaustive list. However, it demonstrates that the subnet can be formed exclusively using existing Gen-2 node capacity already registered on the network. That said, any configuration using existing capacity that results in a subnet composed of Gen-2 nodes located in G20 member states and satisfying target topology constraints fulfills the intent of this proposal.

### **What This Motion Proposal Authorizes**

If adopted, this motion authorizes the following actions:

- The creation of a mainnet subnet named the “G20 Subnet.”

- The (re)assignment of up to 13 existing Gen-2, nodes located in G20 member states to form the initial G20 Subnet.

Together, these approvals establish the G20 Subnet on mainnet with a secure, resilient, and jurisdictionally diverse foundation, providing a globally credible deployment environment for Internet Computer applications with international reach.
