This POAP confirms that you were a Hacker at ETHGlobal New York 2025, ETHGlobal’s fourth hackathon in New York City. This event saw a remarkably experienced set of 687 hackers and 987 overall attendees build 275 projects in just one short weekend. Thank you so much for joining and being a part of what makes each event so special.

This POAP shows that you were there for the Ethereum Merge event on ETHGlobal.tv. Together we watched as Ethereum replaced its proof of work consensus algorithm with proof of stake reducing Ethereum’s energy consumption by ~99.95%. Additionally, to receive this POAP you needed to have joined the conversation and celebration!

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/
