It’s been a turbulent week for crypto, with RPL and other altcoins continuing to struggle as the token price hovers near $5. While the market remains uncertain, Rocket Pool has exciting upgrades on the way, such as Saturn on the horizon. Until then, the price action will be a bumpy ride. Community members within the Rocket Pool Discord that share their struggles receive a POAP.

On December 6, 2024, Ether crossed over $4k. While this is about the fourth cross over $4k, it is a big psychological milestone as we affirm the long term value of Ether and continue cultivating a strong chain and application ecosystem. This POAP is the second in a price milestone series on the way to Pectra. This POAP developed by superphiz, art by the ever-talented Shfryn. Distribution by airship and private channels.
