For the Gitcoin GR9 Hackathon, Protocol Labs matched 100% of [**Textile**](https://blog.textile.io/funding-the-community/) and [**Fleek’s**](https://blog.fleek.co/posts/gitcoin-gr9-hackathon-fleek-winners) bounties in effort to amplify the ability of our ecosystem collaborators to be stewards of the IPFS/Filecoin ecosystem and decentralize growth and development. Moreover, $23k in bounties for Filecoin and IPFS were offered to encourage the best of the best for tools, libraries, APIs, apps, integrations, and more.
Winners were selected from 167 projects total, with 36 submissions to our ecosystem bounties, [**read this post to learn all about the winning projects - congratulations!**](https://blog.ipfs.io/2021-05-10-gitcoin-gr9-recap/)
Estuary is a network node that bridges IPFS ⇆ Filecoin. Unlike other nodes, Estuary ensures your storage and retrieval goals match your own storage heuristics. Estuary uses automation to make Filecoin storage deals, restore IPFS pins with Filecoin retrieval deals, and repairs deals against reliable miners. The outcome is that there is a higher guarantee of on chain data, and a higher guarantee your data won't disappear from the internet. [**Jimmy Lee’s DoraHack presentation**](https://youtu.be/3hbtHcn0Piw?t=2460) was an early preview of what led up to our learnings, and the API and documentation we plan on releasing to the community. To contribute to the community discussion, [**see here**](https://github.com/filecoin-project/community/discussions/105).
