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.

On July 17, 2023, a significant event took place within the Rocket Pool community as their Discord server was compromised. During this incident, a fraudulent airdrop was shared, leading to the banning of esteemed members from the server. However, in the face of adversity, the resilient Rocket Pool community united on a secondary server to confront and rectify the situation.

POAP by Dr Doofus in the Rocket Pool EL client diversity initiative. The execution clients that have gorged on staking nodes bring extra slashing risks to their validators. Health allies help by beefing up hungry clients and moderating overfed clients. Everyone benefits. We appreciate all the hard work Geth has had to do, but it needs to trim down. Thanks to all the ETH Health Allies!
