Mascot needed for Glamsterdam upgrade

A mascot is needed for Glamsterdam upgrade (EIP-7773: Hardfork Meta - Glamsterdam).

EIP-8066: Upgrade Mascots specifies mascot requirements and role of facilitator (Mascot Wrestler).

@EvilJordan proposed as Glamsterdam Mascot Wrestler

Recent upgrade names:

  • :owl: Shapella (Shanghai + Capella)
  • :blowfish: Dencun (Cancun + Deneb)
  • :giraffe: Pectra (Prague + Electra)
  • :zebra: Fusaka (Fulu + Osaka)
  • :question: Glamsterdam (Gloas + Amsterdam)

See: Post-Merge Network Upgrade Naming Schemes

(Apologies if I am stepping on the process for selecting star upgrade names, I’m not a core dev)

Mascot Emoji Reasoning
Ant :ant:
Poodle :poodle: Glamsterdam sounds elegant, poodle is a elegant dog.
Bee :bee: Bees work hard: efficient, coordinated, and parallel.

Ooo this is fun. I would suggest using a poodle! Emoji: :poodle: Reasoning: Glamsterdam sounds elegant, poodle is a elegant dog.

Fusaka bengal tiger btw, too. For balance after already having an African one with the Giraffe.
Dencun was blobfish, not blowfish.

@etan-status that is why we need EIP-8066: Upgrade Mascots IMHO.

Blobfish couldn’t be represented by emoji (that I am aware of), which then meant there wasn’t an easy way to share on socials. I used :blowfish: for this purpose. .oO was the other alternative, but again not an emoji.

@nixo took an Official™ emoji poll :grin: and :zebra: won out, but we still have :zebra: vs :tiger2: for Fusaka less than a month out from mainnet. A Mascot Wrestler could facilitate coordination.
