cm/hashed with BLAKE2b in Merkle-tree mode ¶

BLAKE2b-512 is initialised with either "LEAF" or "NODE" keys, instead of using 0x00/0x01 constants prepending to the data. Although BLAKE2 has ability to set tree-hashing parameters on its own, many implementations do not provide necessary API for that.

blake2b-merkle algorithm identifier is used.
