Benefit
Haloooloolo summarized it very well in his grant application.
| Group | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Potential rETH holders | Prospective rETH holders visit the support / general channel for help with navigating the website or ask questions about the reward distribution mechanism. |
| rETH holders | rETH holders benefit from the higher effectiveness of node operators that have been helped in support. |
| Potential NOs | Potential NOs go to support to ask for hardware suggestions, ask about the Smartnode stack or ask other miscellaneous setup questions. |
| NOs | This is the core group for support activity. Most requests involve node maintenance or actively ongoing issues that caused an operator’s node to go offline. |
| Community | Having a strong support channel to rely on is one of the main reasons a potential node operator would join the Rocket Pool community. |
| RPL holders | Mostly NA - indirectly by helping other members of the community and therefore the protocol. Some support requests are about the migration of RPL v1. |
