This POAP will be issued to anyone who was operating their own Ethereum staking node, either as a solo staker or as a Rocket Pool node operator, as of the time of the merge. The first use of this POAP will be to vote on an art style for a non-transferrable NFT which will be issued to node operators. You can learn more about this project here: https://www.ethstakerincentives.org/ Subsequent uses will be up to the staker community. The list of eligible addresses for this POAP is here: https://github.com/GLCNI/ETH-Solo-Validator-Addresses

Project Laika is entering cryosleep for an undetermined amount of time. To celebrate those who who joined us in the experiment, this final session starts a giveaway of a special edition Towel Rocketeer. Thanks to everyone who joined the livestreams. We enjoyed your presence, ideas, and willingness to be Rickrolled. We hope to exit project Laika from cryosleep once we have reached a Canine-friendly star system.

This week is beta testing week for the new Signer.is tool! The tool is designed to allow you to sign a message (not transaction) with your crypto wallet, and to share the cryptographic signature easily using a sharable link. Your job as a beta tester: try it out, and perhaps even try to break it a little 🙉

In session #5 the Rocketeers are the guinea pigs for POAPs new "proof of human work" feature for the qr.poap.tech QR dispenser. We also show off one of the beta cork prints!

Project Laika celebrates the beta release of the Rocketeer Merch store! While mentor.eth and annatesla take a week off from livestreaming, we invite you to try this super mega beta feature.

As Project Laika starts to take shape, we take a week to give the Rocketeers some love by starting to build a Merch integration!

The first POAP Curation Community call was held in the POAP discord on 2022-01-14, hosted by superphiz, Colfax Selby, Defi Dude, Tap.eth, and Mister Mojo. We had a great discussion that included profwerder and DrMalachi.

The sun has set, the moon has risen. The Doggos of the solar system stare up at the sky in anticipation.

This POAP was issued on January 7th 2022 (Epoch timestamp: 1641560400) in commemoration of Joe Clapis becoming a full-time employee of Rocket Pool. Joe started his journey in 2021 as one of us, the degens in #trading. Because in part of his outstanding work on adapting the RP smart stack for use on ARM based processors including the humble Raspberry Pi, Joe became an employee of Rocket Pool on 4/20. https://discord.com/channels/405159462932971535/405163979141545995/834277560959500308 On 12/3/21 Joe announced to #trading that he tendered his resignation to his day-time IRL fiat mining job and would work full-time for Rocket Pool. https://discord.com/channels/405159462932971535/405163713063288832/916468166174072832 The advancement of quantum computing was dealt a severe loss of intellect with Joe’s departure for that field of study. This POAP was distributed to all those that congratulated Joe in celebration of his first full day on the job. We hope this means he will be able to use both hemispheres of his brain on all things Ethereum.

As the Rocketeers float lonely in space, their beloved pets are scheming to join them in outer space. We don't know when, we don't know how, we just know they are determined. Today the adventure begins.
