Rocket Pool has had separate quora for on-chain and snapshot voting. This isn't really the intent; it's based on getting similar absolute requirements given that one is a percent of all vote power and the other is a percent of initialized vote power. haloooloolo has volunteered to initialize more vote power so that the difference is small and Rocket Pool can use a single quorum going forward without more tweaks. Buyers of this POAP helped fund this community initiative to initialize on-chain vote power!

On December 6, 2024, Ether crossed over $4k. While this is about the fourth cross over $4k, it is a big psychological milestone as we affirm the long term value of Ether and continue cultivating a strong chain and application ecosystem. This POAP is the second in a price milestone series on the way to Pectra. This POAP developed by superphiz, art by the ever-talented Shfryn. Distribution by airship and private channels.

On November 9, 2024, Ether crossed over $3k yet again. While it's no All-Time-High, it's a significant mental milestone and a reason for celebration in the Ethereum community. This POAP recognizes $3k as a price-point milestone in our journey to the Pectra upgrade. POAP developed by superphiz, art by the ever-talented Shfryn. Distribution is free through private channels only.

Holders of this POAP joined the EthStaker community to celebrate the Rocket Pool Saturn Zero Upgrade.

On September 23, 2024, the Constellation testnet officially went live! Constellation is a protocol built on Rocket Pool that enhances capital efficiency, boosts scalability, and mitigates asset concentration risk. Node operators who participated in setting up Constellation on Holesky, helping test one of the most impactful products built on Rocket Pool, were awarded a POAP as recognition for their contribution.

As Rocket Pool launches to a new beginning with RP v2, the community takes a trip down memory lane. In the POAP, Stakeman wearing new merch from the soon to be RP Store, represents the future memories we will make as he supports our trip down memory lane for the Rocket Pool community. We are here (at the star in the center) celebrating this amazing crypto-journey and ready to Face Down any challenges together. Familiar faces and the colorful situations we’ve found ourselves in adorn the landscape of our journey. To get this POAP, community members reminisce (in the discord) over past events.

The Rocket Pool Houston release delivered Protocol DAO on-chain voting. Shortly, the Protocol DAO will be able to vote on Snapshot for meta governance and vote on-chain to make protocol changes. Before Rocket Pool can enable Protocol DAO voting, node operators need to initialize their voting power in the new system and update their signaling address that is used to vote on Snapshot. Node operators that initialized their voting power by July 15 received a POAP.

Rocket Pool released v1.13.6 of the Smart Node, a recommended update for all users. This version includes important client updates, bug fixes, and new features. Node operators's can now use the command 'rocketpool pdao set-signalling-address' to connect your node voting power to the address that will be used to vote on Snapshot. Node operators that updated within 48 hours were given a POAP.
