On January 22, 2024, @DCInvestor publicly stated that he was removing his staked Ether from Coinbase due to their lack of action regarding Execution Layer client diversity. Coinbase arranged a call with DCInvestor, and Brian replied "Taking a look." The Ethereum community aligns deeply with Coinbase and we appreciate their advocacy and willingness to promote our shared success.

As the holiday season swept over the Rocket Pool community on Discord, virtual festivities ignited a sense of camaraderie among its members. The sound of cheerful messages and rocket emojis echoed through the digital space, creating a warm and vibrant atmosphere. Following a fruitful year of protocol development, which included the implementation of LEB8s, a remarkable 4x growth in rETH, and the launch of a new website, the community eagerly anticipated the unfolding excitement of the upcoming 2024 roadmap. The much-anticipated Houston and Saturn upgrades stood out as key milestones, promising to further elevate Rocket Pool's capabilities and solidify its position in the evolving landscape of decentralized Ethereum staking. This POAP was awarded to the Discord members that joined in on the festivities.

The address which minted this POAP participated in the KZG Summoning Ceremony: a publicly coordinated ritual to produce a random output. This output will be used in Proto-Danksharding, aka EIP 4844: an Ethereum scaling mechanism which will hopefully enable lower Layer 2 fees and greater global accessibility. EIP-4844 is expected to go live with the Dencun network upgrade in the near future. As of the time of writing, this ceremony was the largest setup of this kind when considering the number of contributions.

The rocket pool skeleton crew watched the spaceship disappear into the darkness of space towards ETHDenver. With no pressing responsibilities, they marveled at the emptiness of #trading and delayed responses in #support. They watched as the sun slowly rose over Denver and the discord channels fill with chatter from a far away place. Despite their uncertain fate, they were grateful for the opportunity to experience something so beautiful and otherworldly. Designed by haurog
