The address which minted this POAP participated in the KZG Summoning Ceremony: a publicly coordinated ritual to produce a random output. This output will be used in Proto-Danksharding, aka EIP 4844: an Ethereum scaling mechanism which will hopefully enable lower Layer 2 fees and greater global accessibility. EIP-4844 is expected to go live with the Dencun network upgrade in the near future. As of the time of writing, this ceremony was the largest setup of this kind when considering the number of contributions.

This POAP is a virtual high-five to all the alpha testers of Ethereum World who braved through the bugs and glitches. It's a nod to the pioneers who took a leap of faith with us and helped pave the way for the future of AKASHA. It's a way to say thank you and cheers to the Ethereans who were there in the beginning! 🙌

AKASHA Conversations is a regular webinar exploring the critical questions of decentralized social networking, with expert presentations informing and inspiring open dialogue and action. We were delighted to be joined by Emaline Friedman Ph.D. as our expert speaker for AKASHA Conversations #5 to explore culture design and the potential to create social spaces with less need for heavy moderation.
