The night of May 11, 2022 was an exciting time for Rocket Pool minipool operators - it was the monthly Rocket Pool rewards distribution, while hanging out in Rocket Pool #Trading, we were watching a ~20% across the board market drop as the Luna stable coin lost its peg and melted down. Holders of this POAP were in the room or closely related to the event in Rocket Pool.

On the day of May 9th, 2022, the cryptocurrency markets were heading south and the stable coin UST was in trouble. Algorithmic stable coins are supposed to be stable by tracking the price of fiat currencies, however, on this day UST's price went as low at .60 - 40% below the peg.

On April 30th, 2022, Yuga Labs release 55,000 virtual plots of land for 305 Ape coin each. These Otherdeed mints cause gas prices to soar in an epic gas war with mints averaging over 6,000 gwei. #Trading watched with amusement as more than $150 million dollars worth of ETH was burned during this mint.

On this day 8thwonder.eth decided he couldn't miss #trading and bought all the RPL he sold a few months prior back. A whopping $500k buy order triggered a lot of bots but most of all the degens in #trading that where active at the time. Eligible people where hand picked based on activity during the buy order, so that only true #trading people can mint this POAP.

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)

In March 2022, Joe Clapis from the Rocket Pool team began work on a Terminal User Interface that provided support for easy client switching during runtime using the graphical interface. While this Terminal UI is still regarded as an alpha product, the value to the community is extremely high as it allows Rocket Pool node operators to continuously contribute to client diversity and help to ensure good client balance on the network. This POAP serves to commemorate this great effort towards decentralisation and to appreciate how Rocket Pool has consistently acted as a public good on the beacon chain. It was given out to the attendees of the weekly RP Twitter Space on March 8th. For more information check out the Rocket Pool discord: https://discord.com/invite/rocketpool

To memorialize Jasper's (jasperthefriendlyghost.eth) efforts in setting up the Curve rETH/wstETH pool. Midnight saw this pool go live and with it, a huge influx of deposits, which triggered a spree of over $20 million TVL in the Curve pool and the creation of 236 minipools. This is a POAP for everyone who commented on the Rocket Pool discord on March 10th, 2022. This day will be remembered as a key catalyst in the growth of the Rocket Pool protocol. Thanks Jasper!
