i guess it would require trial and error, you can modify/bulk edit pictures quite a few different ways, you just need to find the point where ig doesn't consider those the same pic anymore
you can add practically invisible watermarks, a small dot, play with hue/saturation/lights, flip horizontally, crop etc., changing just the MD5 may not cut it

Editing pics basically changes your md5 value and I believe IG reads only md5 value to recognize a pic!! Or is there more to it?

true that, but you can change the MD5 without editing, that's what i was trying to getting at
honestly i would be surprised, if ig wouldn't have some kind of image recognition system in place which uses more than just the MD5 checksum to identify a pic, it's too easy to game
maybe who does mass image uploading nowadays can shed some more light onto this, i'm out of the loop since a while
