This POAP celebrates Maco's debut in Collectr's December edition, a memorable event featuring Vyper. Thank you for being part of this milestone and for joining us in recognizing creativity and community!

We want to invite people to “Touch the Torch” to claim a POAP, and attach Moments in the form of pictures, to the POAP. On Tuesday 12th November at DC7, we carried out the ETH•TORCH ritual, passing the Eth values from Bogotá to Bangkok 🦄🔥 This simbolic ritual gathers the communities from Colombia DC6 and SEA DC7 around the values of Ethereum that the torch aims to immortalize. The ETH•TORCH is a DIP proposal that was approved for DC7. The torch was exhibited at the SEA HUB during all of Devcon, as a symbol of unity.

Devcon is the Ethereum conference for developers, thinkers, and makers. Devcon's mission is to bring decentralized protocols, tools, and culture to the people and make Ethereum more accessible around the world. Devcon is a four-day event, all in one big venue. You'll meet everyone in that one place. Devcon Week will span the entire week of November 9-17, with events before and after Devcon, organized by the local and global Ethereum community.

Danny Ryan is best known as the key researcher and facilitator for the transition in Ethereum from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS), often regarded as a modern engineering marvel. The transition to Proof of Stake reduced the energy footprint of Ethereum by more than 99%, it brought increased efficiency, increased security, increased scalability, and greater decentralization to Ethereum. Danny is also regarded as a central figure in developing the core ethos and vision of Ethereum as a chain committed to long term sustainability and decentralization. Danny's leadership and commitment to making Ethereum sustainable have been vital to the success of the Ethereum beacon chain. On September 13, 2024, Danny announced that he was moving on from this work. As a community, we are deeply appreciative of Danny's efforts and we wish him the best. Collecting this POAP involves a 0.001 Ether donation to the Protocol Guild.
