On November 9, 2024, Ether crossed over $3k yet again. While it's no All-Time-High, it's a significant mental milestone and a reason for celebration in the Ethereum community. This POAP recognizes $3k as a price-point milestone in our journey to the Pectra upgrade. POAP developed by superphiz, art by the ever-talented Shfryn. Distribution is free through private channels only.

In September of 2024, u/Tricky_Troll announced that due to budget concerns he couldn't make it to Hodlercon, despite having plans to attend DevCon 7 in Bangkok. The next day, u/superphiz pledged to match any donations up to $1,000 worth of ETH to help fund his trip. Following this, numerous generous EthFinanciers kindly donated whatever they could, large and small, enabling Tricky to attend Hodlercon 2 in Phuket. This POAP is a token of Tricky's sincere appreciation for their donation and is an attestation to the generosity of individuals receiving this POAP. 🙌

This POAP commemorates the Early Commitment of many community members who deposit before anyone else on the Enzyme Early Staker Program securing their seat on it and helping grow Diva Pre-Launch TVL.

The Ethereum community has taken proactive measures, including a treasury vote within ENS DAO, an incentives vote within Arbitrum (one of the largest layer 2 solutions), and organizing vampire attacks within two influential staking communities, Diva and Swell. Additionally, the protocols, which had previously ignored a strong response from the broader Ethereum community, now sought help from that very community to establish new bridging standards. This need arose after a significant bridge incident involving the wstETH token rendered these protocols vulnerable. These collective actions underline the community's determination to maintain Ethereum's decentralization and resilience, showcasing their commitment to safeguarding the network against external threats. This POAP was organized and designed by contraband.eth, rplmaxi.eth, ShfRyn, superphiz, and Waq.

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.

This POAP is meant to commemorate The Merge on the Ethereum protocol. We, the fine people of r/ethfinance, have been counting down the days to this historical event. Literally. Everyday u/Moschus11 has been posting a countdown to the estimated merge date and the fellow subredditors have been upvoting, downvoting, correcting, criticising, reviewing, validating his best guess. As a small token of appreciation to our little corner of the internet he would like to hand out this POAP to remember The Merge, but more so the countdown itself. Because, after all, the journey is the reward.

This POAP recognizes holders of the EVMavericks NFT delivered to regular participants in the reddit.com/r/ethfinance subreddit. This POAP doesn't recognize the original recipients, rather, it recognizes those who held the NFT after the deployment was completed.

The highly anticipated block 12,965,000 has finally processed and ushered in EIP-1559. This POAP celebrates all of the hard work and dedication by the Ethereum Foundation and everyone involved to bring such a monumental upgrade to fruition.

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.
