On 4th of October a white hat (who chose to remain anonymous) revealed a potential critical exploit in the node side of protocol that could allow an operator to submit previously made withdrawal credentials for a minipool. In the matter of hours the Rocket Pool team examined the sophisticated node exploit and designed a fix for it.

Rocket Pool is hitting mainnet on October 6th after 4 years of development time! As such, the Rocket Pool community has organized a series of POAPs and raffles honoring communities that share a similar ethos to Rocket Pool. Many of us in the Rocket Pool community owe it to Reddit for the first step. This is thanks for being wonderful hubs of information about the decentralized future. A special thank you to the moderators of these subs for being forgiving to us RPL fanatics and an even more special thank you to everyone that has helped spread knowledge about decentralized staking. Thank you r/ethfinance, r/rocketpool, r/ethereum, and r/ethstaker.

Congratulations to the entire POAP team for having issued their one millionth POAP! This is a huge milestone - to celebrate, here is a One Millionth POAP POAP.

This POAP pays homage to Arbitrum's Ethereum Mainnet release and many of the first mover protocols that tested and believed in the rollup's launch! Created by: Triforcedao

We celebrate the amazing community surrounding the r/EthFinance sub-reddit.

Rocket Pool needs YOU to help decentralize Ethereum staking. This is a High-Resolution 7016px x 9934px (73in x 103in) Rocket Pool inspired poster. The idea of the Rocket Pool Poster was presented by VGR and collaboratively designed by RavenFromIvo and Unvetica.eth 300 NFT posters will be raffled off via POAP.fun. The remaining 50 NFTs will be sold via rarible: https://rarible.com/token/0xd07dc4262bcdbf85190c01c996b4c06a461d2430:616546?tab=owners 50% of the profits made in the Rarible Auction will go towards covering the minting and distribution costs, the other 50% will be donated to GitCoin grants.

The crew is all strapped in, the rocket is laden with fuel, and command has confirmed our mission to secure the Ethereum network from would-be attackers both terrestrial and extraterrestrial alike. The moon mission patch commemorates the crew of the r/rocketpool subreddit and brings good fortune on their imminent mission to expand trustless, decentralized staking on the Ethereum network.

an official claim for the r/EthFinance POAP for the "flipty" event - Ethereum reaching 50% of bitcoin's value.
