On the 23rd of May 2024, I spent the day with other ethfinanciers waiting for the US Securities and Exchange Commission to approve the exchange applications for spot ether ETFs. We did it!

EthStaker Challenge Coin POAPs are provided by EthStaker to member of the communty who have provided significant contributions to the success of the team/community.

One of our own #trading members, Galenus, is currently in Ukraine offering medical support to the resistance against the Russian invasion. We want to honor him and all Ukrainians suffering from this assault on their homes. It is a testament to the future that when tragedy strikes, the good are willing to rise up. As crypto moves us closer to a future devoid of nationalistic military conflicts, we ought to heed the words of Galenus the philosopher when he wrote “Those who are enslaved to their sects are not merely devoid of all sound knowledge, but they will not even stop to learn!” Everyone who claims this POAP is encouraged to donate towards the Ukrainian defense here - 0x165CD37b4C644C2921454429E7F9358d18A45e14 - (source: https://twitter.com/ukraine/status/1497594592438497282?lang=en)

Holders of this POAP were online with EthStaker during the Kiln testnet merge. The Kiln testnet is the first public testnet for the merge that will combine the Execution Layer from the existing Proof of Work chain with the Consensus Layer from the new beacon chain. The result will be a new chain (forged in the kiln) with a new Proof of Stake Consensus Layer and a powerful EVM Execution engine. This call occurred around 10am Eastern time on March 15, 2022, a day earlier than anticipated after GPU miners accelerated the PoW chain toward the merge.

The 4th appearance of this POAP (Proof of Adorable Pups) comes at a time where the series name no longer fits; gone are the dog days! Rocket Pool has now successfully launched and is nearing its final, open stage. Joining us on this rocket are eight more fluffy friends (including one odd-looking "dog", Sparky...)
