Purports to be quicker than all other hash functions (yes, even SHA1) by orders of magnitude.
Yes, these are the same folk that built blake2 (almost selected as the official keccak implementation; did not lose due to inferior security but rather due to 'speed reasons')
Its built in Rust. If you want it on the command line you're going to need to build up 'b3sum' (that's the ultimate binary that you're going to be calling in the terminal).
There are also binaries available in the releases though.

Telegram’s stand out feature is its encryption scheme that keeps messages and media secure in transit. The scheme is known as MTProto and is based on 256-bit AES encryption, RSA encryption, and Diffie-Hellman key exchange. The result of this complicated and technical-sounding jargon? A messaging service that claims to keep your data safe.Why do we say claims? When dealing with security, you always want to leave room for scrutiny, and a few cryptography experts have criticized the system. Overall, any level of encryption is better than none, but a level of discretion should always be observed with any online connected system, even Telegram.
Newly uncovered hack campaign in Telegram
The campaign, which security firm Check Point has named Rampant Kitten, comprises two main components, one for Windows and the other for Android. Rampant Kitten’s objective is to steal Telegram messages, passwords, and two-factor authentication codes sent by SMS and then also take screenshots and record sounds within earshot of an infected phone, the researchers said in a post published on Friday.
