This POAP is for attending the second Build with Guild event where we shined a light on abilities, claims, rewards, possible groups to join. We've explored how our SDK helps this with Daylight on stage and how Guild users can benefit from it.

GitPOAP (gitpoap.io) and EthStaker (twitter.com/ethstaker) cohost Alex Stokes (twitter.com/ralexstokes), a researcher at the Ethereum Foundation who's currently specializing in MEV. We'll talk about his project (github.com/ralexstokes/mev-rs), MEV in general (if you don't understand what MEV is, this is a good place to start!), Alex Stokes the human and, as always, how you can contribute to projects at the heart of the Ethereum ecosystem.

The Ethereum Mainnet merged with the Beacon Chain proof-of-stake network on September 15, 2022. This marks the end of proof-of-work for Ethereum and a full transition to proof-of-stake. This historic upgrade is projected to reduce the Ethereum network's energy consumption by over 99% and sets the stage for future upgrades to further scale the Ethereum network. Holders of this POAP were there to witness the Ethereum Mainnet Merge with the rest of the community and signaled their support to the core developers of this enormous undertaking by sending roughly $10 of ETH to the Protocol DAO, directly funding protocol contributors. Special thanks to all of the client teams, researchers and core developers of the Ethereum Protocol, and to community leaders The Daily Gwei, Bankless, Ethereum Cat Herders, The Ethereum Foundation and EthStaker for their support in preparing the world for this moment. -https://thedailygwei.substack.com/ -https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/ -https://www.ethereumcatherders.com/ -https://ethereum.org/en/ -https://ethstaker.cc/

CowDAO hodlers vote on CIP5! The purpose of this CIP is to gather support within the community for enabling the swapping of vCOW tokens into COW tokens.

CowDAO hodlers vote on CIP3! The purpose of this CIP is to gather support within the community to pass a vote to allow a reduction in trading fees for COW holders. A token based fee discount will improve the tokens’ utility and foster a healthy ecosystem for users of the protocol, COW holders and the DAO.
