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

As a result of a joint effort of the ETHStaker community, Beaconcha.in and POAP, this NFT represents the participation on the launch of the Medalla ETH2 testnet

The Beacon Chain First 32,769 POAP is awarded to each unique address that was in the first 32,769 block proposals on the Ethereum 2 Beacon Chain that launched December 1, 2020. This POAP badge was designed by borisblock as part of a design contest held on the POAP discord channel.
