After many years of progress and a lengthy approval process, Spot Ethereum Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) opened for trading on July 23, 2024. The SEC approved eight ETFs, including the Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust (ETH), Franklin Ethereum ETF (EZET), VanEck Ethereum ETF (ETHV), Bitwise Ethereum ETF (ETHW), 21Shares Core Ethereum ETF (CETH), Fidelity Ethereum Fund (FETH), BlackRock's (BLK) iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) and the Invesco Galaxy Ethereum ETF (QETH). Funds raised from this POAP will go to Aestus. The Aestus MEV-Boost Relay is a neutral, non-censoring relay, which emerged from conversations between members of the EthFinance and EthStaker communities who see the need to develop credibly neutral architecture for the Ethereum staking ecosystem. This POAP was developed by superphiz.eth with input from nixorokish.eth, with art by electropillow.eth

Holders of this POAP celebrated Ethereum Mainnet's upgrade to Dencun. This eagerly anticipated upgrade is projected to reduce gas fees for Layer 2 networks, unlocking greater scaling for the Ethereum ecosystem. Special thanks to the Ethereum Foundation, Ethereum Cat Herders, The Daily Gwei and EthStaker for hosting the watch party call. https://ethereum.org/ https://www.ethereumcatherders.com/ https://thedailygwei.substack.com/ https://ethstaker.cc/

On January 22, 2024, @DCInvestor publicly stated that he was removing his staked Ether from Coinbase due to their lack of action regarding Execution Layer client diversity. Coinbase arranged a call with DCInvestor, and Brian replied "Taking a look." The Ethereum community aligns deeply with Coinbase and we appreciate their advocacy and willingness to promote our shared success.

On January 21, 2024 Nethermind validators suddenly went offline at block 257,913. Thanks to Nethermind being a minority client, network participation drop was only ~10% and the chain was unaffected! Proceeds will be sent to the Smoothly pool (https://smoothly.money/) to support solo stakers. POAP design created by ElectroPillow.eth.

The address which minted this POAP participated in the KZG Summoning Ceremony: a publicly coordinated ritual to produce a random output. This output will be used in Proto-Danksharding, aka EIP 4844: an Ethereum scaling mechanism which will hopefully enable lower Layer 2 fees and greater global accessibility. EIP-4844 is expected to go live with the Dencun network upgrade in the near future. As of the time of writing, this ceremony was the largest setup of this kind when considering the number of contributions.
