On May 14, 2023, Waqwaqattack, Rocket Pool's beloved Rocket Fuel podcast host, watched Guardians of the Galaxy 3 then delivered his own baby in his car. Baby waq and mommy waq are all doing great.

For the month of February 2023, jcrtp.eth (Joe) has been burning the proverbial midnight oil and working some very long hours to ship Atlas and v1.9 on time. The Rocket Pool community took the time to thank Joe for his amazing work and thank his wife for supporting him during that time. This POAP was awarded to anyone who shared kind words to Joe and his family. POAP developed by superphiz and designed by ShfRyn.

A POAP given out to all holders of Rocket Pool's token, as we hit 13k total holders

On Dec 2nd, a new account joined the Rocket Pool Discord channel, 'rpl-benefactor'. The person offered three steps, 1) message the benefactor with information about what work you have done for Rocket Pool, 2) send your address, and 3) you would get RPL tokens depending on the work you did. Over the next five days, the benefactor distributed over 1000 RPL tokens to over 160 community members. This POAP commemorates the generosity of the Rocket Pool community. The benefactor's wallet was given 1000 RPL by superphiz who received the tokens from Patricio Worthalter. This POAP was created by Sleety and distributed by WaqWaqAttack.

After a hard week and the first truly contentious vote in the RP community, which included losing a well liked member, we all needed a reminder of who we are and what we're about. Just when we needed a hero, instead LookingForOwls returned to remind us to be excellent to each other and not take some of these things too personally or seriously, like we were in the olden days before launch.

On July 31, 2022 RPL liquidity got tight and the price began to climb. Holders of this POAP were active in the Rocket Pool #Trading discord during the pump.
