On September 23, 2024, the Constellation testnet officially went live! Constellation is a protocol built on Rocket Pool that enhances capital efficiency, boosts scalability, and mitigates asset concentration risk. Node operators who participated in setting up Constellation on Holesky, helping test one of the most impactful products built on Rocket Pool, were awarded a POAP as recognition for their contribution.

To boost everyone's spirits in the Rocket Pool community, our esteemed friend Ramana threw an RPL buying bash from September 22nd to September 24th. Ramana even promised to snag some RPL for every 5 purchases made by our community members. Members who participated received this special POAP. Design by ShfRyn.

This POAP will be issued to anyone who was operating their own Ethereum staking node, either as a solo staker or as a Rocket Pool node operator, as of the time of the merge. The first use of this POAP will be to vote on an art style for a non-transferrable NFT which will be issued to node operators. You can learn more about this project here: https://www.ethstakerincentives.org/ Subsequent uses will be up to the staker community. The list of eligible addresses for this POAP is here: https://github.com/GLCNI/ETH-Solo-Validator-Addresses

The EthStaker crew is joined by the Nethermind execution layer client team to chat about their history, their development, other projects in the pipeline, client diversity, and much more
