title: Install Minty npm packages for IPFS
body: <p>So I am working on a M1 Mac and I want to use Minty, IPFS, &amp; Pinata to mint some NFTs. I downloaded the IPFS binary, specifcially - <a href="https://dist.ipfs.io/go-ipfs/v0.13.1/go-ipfs_v0.13.1_darwin-arm64.tar.gz" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://dist.ipfs.io/go-ipfs/v0.13.1/go-ipfs_v0.13.1_darwin-arm64.tar.gz</a> - and I was unable to have IPFS moved to the /usr/bin folder on my machine, I even tried enabling full disk access for the terminal in my settings and that did not work as I still receive a &quot;cp: /usr/bin/ipfs: Operation not permitted&quot; error. I was however able to move it into the /usr/local/bin directory and when I run &quot;ipfs --version&quot; it recognizes the command. So I cloned the Minty git repo - git clone <a href="https://github.com/yusefnapora/minty" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/yusefnapora/minty</a> - ran the IPFS daemon, I think it starts running but I also see this in my output</p>
  <p>IPFS is not installed. <br>
  Running IPFS and development blockchain <br>
  [ipfs] IPFS is not installed. <br>
  [ipfs] npx go-ipfs daemon exited with code 0 <br>
  [eth] Started HTTP and WebSocket JSON-RPC server at <a href="http://127.0.0.1:8545/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://127.0.0.1:8545/</a> <br></p>
  <p>As always any help is much appreciated.</p>
