Hello Rocket Pool community,I’m reaching out as a holder of a significant amount of Holesky testnet ETH (~1.4 million tokens) from before the Holesky shutdown in late 2025.As we all know, Holesky has been fully deprecated and replaced by Hoodi (especially for validator/staking testing like Saturn upgrades, MEGAPOOLs, etc.). Most teams have migrated, and faucets for active testnets are sufficient now.However, I believe there might still be niche use cases for legacy Holesky ETH, such as:
-
Historical data recovery or replay testing for old minipools/validators.
-
Comparing pre- vs post-Fusaka/Saturn behavior in simulations.
-
Internal research, archiving, or edge-case debugging by node operators/devs who worked heavily on Holesky deployments.
I’m not looking to sell everything at high prices — the value is near zero now — but I’d like to offer batches (e.g., 10k–100k ETH Holesky per request) either:
-
Free (donation for goodwill/community benefit),
-
Or very low cost (e.g., symbolic $0.005–$0.01 per token, to cover any gas/transfer fees if needed).
If any Rocket Pool core team, node operators, researchers, or delegates still need some Holesky ETH for the above purposes, feel free to reply here, DM me (
