Now that ipfs is using ed25519 by default… Instead of using “ipfs init” to generate a random identity, I would like to create and set my own ed25519 key pair. Is it possible? Thanks

With sudo apt install python3-dev protobuf-compiler sudo pip3 install cryptography Ed25519 base58 google protobuf On a fresh install, the script is running!! @twdragon thank you so much I am really bad at python, but i could sew it in the bash

How can I set my own ed25519 key?
