We’ve been working with ION to support their use of IPFS since 2019. IPFS comes into the picture at the storage layer, where ION aggregates transactions into batches, adds those batches to IPFS, and then writes the IPFS content identifier (CID) of the batch to the blockchain. Try ION v1.0 today and share your feedback in the [ION repo](https://github.com/decentralized-identity/ion) or let [@IPFS know on Twitter](https://twitter.com/ipfs). + +## IPFS & Friends at Chainlink Spring Hackathon! +Last week the [Chainlink Hackathon](https://chain.link/hackathon) hosted Dietrich Ayala from Protocol Labs and Textile's Andrew Hill for some amazing tutorials and talks about building on IPFS.
