You might be an ETH bull. You might be an ETH bear. But you were here during the longest Crab in the history of Ethereum. More than half a decade where the tech kept improving, but the price oscillated between $1000 and $5000. Created for r/ethereum by u/Itur_ad_Astra/. Collectors of this POAP made a donation of $3 to the Protocol Guild.

On August 8, 2023, an enigmatic newcomer by the username "elpresidank" made an extraordinary proposition: a commitment to match any user's RPL purchase, up to an impressive 600 ETH. This unexpected and intriguing offer set the Rocket Pool Discord community ablaze with excitement, as a cascade of buy orders commenced, spanning not only from community members but also from the Rocket Pool team themselves. This surge of activity was met with an equal measure of zeal from elpresidank's commitment to match these buy orders, creating an atmosphere of shared passion and unity. Members received a POAP for participating. 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
