Bankless Citizen - Class of 2024 This is your onchain representation of being a Bankless Citizen!

POAP by Dr Doofus in the Rocket Pool EL client diversity initiative. The execution clients that have gorged on staking nodes bring extra slashing risks to their validators. Health allies help by beefing up hungry clients and moderating overfed clients. Everyone benefits. We appreciate all the hard work Geth has had to do, but it needs to trim down. Thanks to all the ETH Health Allies!

As June unfolded, Rocket Pool node operators embarked on a determined mission to bolster the security and resilience of the Ethereum network. Fueled by a shared vision, they steered away from Geth, braving the challenges to embrace alternative solutions that would fortify the network's health and safeguard its future. Their unwavering efforts became a testament to the unwavering commitment of the Ethereum community in creating a robust and thriving decentralized ecosystem. POAP designed by Sleety.

The entire Ethereum network is exposed to risks when it heavily relies on a single execution client like Geth. It is crucial for the overall stability and resilience of the Ethereum ecosystem that a diverse range of execution clients is adopted. In the month of June, the Rocket Pool community banded together to diversify execution client usage on the network. This POAP has been granted to node operators who have made the commendable choice of either transitioning to, or already utilizing minority clients during the month of June 2023.

On April 18 Rocket Pool deployed their Atlas upgrade, this upgrade provides support for withdrawals from the beacon chain and 8 Ether mini pools. This is a huge milestone in the success of Rocket Pool!

The Ethereum Mainnet merged with the Beacon Chain proof-of-stake network on September 15, 2022. This marks the end of proof-of-work for Ethereum and a full transition to proof-of-stake. This historic upgrade is projected to reduce the Ethereum network's energy consumption by over 99% and sets the stage for future upgrades to further scale the Ethereum network. Holders of this POAP were there to witness the Ethereum Mainnet Merge with the rest of the community and signaled their support to the core developers of this enormous undertaking by sending roughly $10 of ETH to the Protocol DAO, directly funding protocol contributors. Special thanks to all of the client teams, researchers and core developers of the Ethereum Protocol, and to community leaders The Daily Gwei, Bankless, Ethereum Cat Herders, The Ethereum Foundation and EthStaker for their support in preparing the world for this moment. -https://thedailygwei.substack.com/ -https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/ -https://www.ethereumcatherders.com/ -https://ethereum.org/en/ -https://ethstaker.cc/
