We need more people in the Ethereum ecosystem running actual nodes. It pains me to meet someone in this space not running one or not interested.

How about we start a monthly POAP or NFT program for node runners to collect? No monetary value but an opportunity to showcase alignment with the Ethereum project.

Is it possible to even link a wallet address to a node? I’m not sure

Have you found ways to do that? Otherwise we’ll need to ask the node experts.

The more people we can get to running a solo node, the more we pace the way for them to solo stake in the future once the requirements of 32 ETH come down, so we might as well get started.

I like that. I've been thinking about ways to do it without the usual sybil abuses.
