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

On Friday, August 27th 2021 a chain split occurred on Ethereum mainnet. This is an issue affecting Geth on the Execution Layer (ETH1). Version 1.10.8 has been released to resolve the issue. If you are running Geth as your Execution Layer client, please update to the version 1.10.8. If you are using Infura or like-service there is no action necessary.
