ipfs-cid 0.0~git20200813.59cf068-2 (arm64 binary) in ubuntu noble

 The intent of the tools is to be for CID generation/verification only. It is
 not in any way an IPFS client.
 .
 The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a protocol and peer-to-peer network
 for storing and sharing data in a distributed file system. IPFS uses
 content-addressing to uniquely identify each file in a global namespace
 connecting all computing devices.[
 .
 A content identifier, or CID, is a label used to point to material in IPFS. It
 doesn't indicate where the content is stored, but it forms a kind of address
 based on the content itself. CIDs are short, regardless of the size of their
 underlying content.
