Fundamental analysis: Platform to participate in Gitcoin Grants Round 8

Chainlink announced it will participate in Gitcoin Grants Round 8 as a matching partner to support projects that aim to enhance Ethereum infrastructure.

By financing infrastructure projects and developers selected by the community, Chainlink is making progress towards the collective vision of the Ethereum community as an open-to-public service that aspires to support more sophisticated smart contract apps, Chainlink said.

In the blog post, Chainlink added they believe it’s their mission as one of the major protocols in the blockchain community to take part in supporting the improving the open-source community projects across various markets, particularly the infrastructure that’s crucial to all of the protocols, including Chainlink.
