Work has been started.

These users each claimed they can complete the work by 2 months, 3 weeks ago. Please review their action plans below:

1) nasdf has started work.

I will be building a Github integration to automatically backup your repository to Filecoin using the Multiverse CLI. 2) dongxiaolang2 has started work.

https://github.com/dongxiaolang2/grants 3) saveascj has started work.

https://github.com/saveascj/grants I'd like to give it a try, hope I can finish this job. 4) samuelemarro has started work.

I will implement a Chrome extension to search on IPFS directly from the omnibar. 5) codynhat has started work.

We will be anchoring AR content to an area of physical land using the Geo Web.

All content will be added to IPFS, pinned using the user's pinning service of choice with the Pinning Service API, and indexed into Ceramic documents. 6) kenthorn95 has started work.

I'm developing a PyTorch tool to integrate IPFS with PyTorch, one of the biggest ML/Big Data frameworks. 7) jacekv has started work.

During the development of my Git3 project, I faced the following problem: How do I share the ABI of my Smart Contracts with other repositories, which are using those ABI's? Copy and paste is not so cool... I tried to find a solution, but haven't found anything satisfying. So I wrote a small NPM package for Hardhat.

All you have to do, is to install the package, add it as a task and run it, whenever you feel you are done with your contracts. The ABI's of the contract's are going to be uploaded to IPFS and pinned using Pinata.

Now you are able to download the ABIs in your other projects and use the ABI. 8) bakerraymond has started work.

One of the biggest issue I have when convincing my friends to use IPFS is that they see no practical reason for using it over other file storage services: after all, why use IPFS when websites like Imgur are one click away? While I'm certain that they will eventually learn to appreciate the inherent value of decentralized storage, in the meantime I'm building a website to sync your Imgur uploads with IPFS. After all, if all it takes to use IPFS is a 15 second trip to a "normal" website, maybe it won't be that difficult to convince them about its value. 9) zapaz has started work.

WordPress plugin to archive media on IPFS and mint NFTs, directly from any WordPress site. 10) sunnyrk has started work.

I am working on filecoin. 11) adi99 has started work.

A decentralized app let you upload Photos similar to Instagram and let like the photos and most liked photos comes on the Top. It uses the Ipfs to upload the Photos on blockchain.

Hey, I am receiving an email, that the bounty is going to expire. Is there anything we have to do?

Hey, I am receiving an email, that the bounty is going to expire. Is there anything we have to do?

I don't think so, your Github PR is there.

[adi99]

Hey, I am receiving an email, that the bounty is going to expire. Nobody have received any bounty. How can it be closed without giving anyone bounty?

[jacekv]

I believe that all those who won have been already notified and the prices have been distributed.

Hi @adi99 - all bountu recipients for GR9 have been notified and bounties awarded.

Your project submission had no instructions, screenshots, demo link, demo video or documentation. We filed an issue requesting these things in your project repo and in response to your message in Filecoin Slack before we closed GR9 review.

We encourage you to participate in future hackathons but please provide more documentation and a demo next time!
