+
+Happy 2022. We're looking forward to a year of shipping product and helping our users build great things!
+
+Here's a bunch of stuff we shipped throughout December...
+
+## Hackathon Winners 
+
+We had a ton of awesome projects submitted for our Holiday Hackdays, all of the submissions are open source so come and check out the code for some of our top picks!
+
+## New crypto extension - pg_crypto
+
+We just added pg_sodium as an extension inside all postgres instances. 
+Which means you can easily do encryption, decryption, hashing, and cryptographic signing from within your postgres functions and queries. 
+Enable it from the Database > Extensions tab in the Supabase Dashboard.
+
+## PostgreSQL Videos 
+
+### Call Postgres functions from JavaScript with RPC
+
+Jon Meyers walks you through how to write more complex queries and logic in your database, and invoke it via the API.
