Ether first crossed $4,000 in October 2021, at the time it was near the end of a wild bull run. Today we passed $4k for the second time, nearly 30 months later, with a totally new perspective: this feels more like the beginning of a new bull cycle than the end of one. Congratulations to developers, operators, and community members who worked hard to bring value to Ether. Art by /u/Few-Bake-6463, POAP developed by superphiz.

Holders of this distinguished token were celebrating on /r/ethfinance around the time of Ethers return to a value of 3000 United States dollars, after a nearly 2 year hiatus, on Tuesday, 20th of February, 2024, between 13:45 and 13:46 GMT. This is Gentlemen?

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.

As June unfolded, Rocket Pool node operators embarked on a determined mission to bolster the security and resilience of the Ethereum network. Fueled by a shared vision, they steered away from Geth, braving the challenges to embrace alternative solutions that would fortify the network's health and safeguard its future. Their unwavering efforts became a testament to the unwavering commitment of the Ethereum community in creating a robust and thriving decentralized ecosystem. POAP designed by Sleety.
