On Dec 1st, 2023, Waq hosted his 300th episode of Rocket Fuel - his daily news show about the Rocket Pool community and protocol. In celebration, Waq donated $3000 to the RPL Benefactor, a member of the Rocket Pool community known for distributing RPL to community members. Waq donated the money with the caveat that the whole community must rally to reach $10,000 in total donations. Once that amount was reached, the RPL Benefactor would distribute the RPL to members of the community. However, if that amount was not reached by Dec 1st, the RPL/eth/whatever would be sent back to donors. This POAP was part of the fundraising drive to reach the $10,000 target. This POAP was sold using POAP checkout with the aim of reaching $10,000. The people who bought the POAP donated $100 (the cost of the POAP) to the RPL Benefactor for them to distribute to the RP community. In donating their money, they became the RPL Benefactor This POAP was created by Shfryn, and it was distributed by Waq through POAP checkout.

On August 8, 2023, an enigmatic newcomer by the username "elpresidank" made an extraordinary proposition: a commitment to match any user's RPL purchase, up to an impressive 600 ETH. This unexpected and intriguing offer set the Rocket Pool Discord community ablaze with excitement, as a cascade of buy orders commenced, spanning not only from community members but also from the Rocket Pool team themselves. This surge of activity was met with an equal measure of zeal from elpresidank's commitment to match these buy orders, creating an atmosphere of shared passion and unity. Members received a POAP for participating. POAP design by ShfRyn.
