Thanks for raising this issue!

While BLAKE is awesome, I am not really interested in adding it at the moment.

Collision uses Crystal's Digest functions (OpenSSL) (/ not md5sum, sha1sum etc) to calculate the hashes. Adding BLAKE would require a major rewrite + writing bindings for the C lib + linking against it.

I'll leave this issue open until I decide on how to approach more hash functions & I'll start a discussion for it.
