CID vs NI vs ISCC vs ...

[sergey-shandar]

• NI https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6920
• CID https://docs.ipfs.tech/concepts/content-addressing/
• ISCC https://iscc.codes/#motivation

Options

• content identifier, content-id, CID. Content-Id is already used by YouTube. CID - not so much.
• ni, named information. Hard to find because of National Instruments (NI).
• data id, DID. It's already used as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decentralized_identifier
  • also https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-hallambaker-digesturi-02
• block-id ? Too much confusion with a blockchain
• object-id ? Too much confusion with structural objects.
• content-address ? Usually, associated with location.
• content-hash
