We want to celebrate the community members of our public goods funding ecosystem. Many of you have participated in donating to public goods, or have been an integral community member supporting these great projects in a variety of ways. Epoch Zero is a one-time funding event, where Golem Foundation & Octant will be donating 1 million dollars to public goods projects: Clr.fund, DAO Drops, Drips, Ethereum Cat Herders, ETHStaker, Giveth, Gitcoin, Kernel, Protocol Guild, & Supermodular. To say thank you to donors of public goods projects, we want to distribute this POAP to community members who care about funding public goods. Join us as we aim to elevate the ecosystem with a variety of experiments via the staking rewards of up to 100,000ETH.

The EthStaker crew is joined by the Nethermind execution layer client team to chat about their history, their development, other projects in the pipeline, client diversity, and much more

On Friday, August 12th @ 3:00PM UTC EthStaker core members, Yorick, Remy Roy, and myself with be hosting a Valiidator workshop. This will be a goerli post-merge workshop and provide you with the steps necessary to test setting up your mainnet validator. On top of speed running the steps to configure your validator for mainnet, we'll discuss setting up your dashboard for monitoring your validator, review what pruning is and when and how to do it, in addition to having the Stereum team provide an update on their Update/Upkeep challenge. This is also a great oppertunity for those who have questions about staking, the merge and anything in between when we open the livestream up for community Q&A at the end.

The Goerli Testnet successfully merged the Execution and Consensus clients on August 10th, 2022. Holders of this POAP were there for this historical moment, and also supported $2 or more to Coin Center, a non-profit focused on crypto policy.
