### The Basics

A @destination is the @I2P @in-net address of the final endpoint you are trying to connect to (example: an @I2P website, service, or Monero node). This can also include a *local destination* of which *other* peers need to connect to in order to make contact for communication (similar to how, in @clearnet, your IP address is given to a website when you connect so it knows *where* to send the information back to).

### In-depth Information

An @I2P destination can be encoded into a @base32-address or @base64-address. Most users will only care about @base32-addresses or a `.i2p` hostname while, internally, @Kovri / @I2P @address-book uses @base64-addresses. Ultimately, all @destinations in @I2P are 516-byte (or longer) keys:

`256-byte public key + 128-byte signing key + a null certificate = 516 bytes in Base64 representation`

Note: certificates are not used now but, if they were, the keys would be longer.

Adopt versioning system used in the User Guides to keep track of the translation status of the Moneropedia entries - Removed the 'untranslated.html' snippet (_includes/untranslated.html). Since now we are using 'disclaimer.html' everywhere - Replaced the old snippet with the new disclaimer (introduced with #966) in all Moneropedia entries - Add snippet where it was missing - Updated instructions in the README 2020-08-16 17:11:02 +00:00			`{% include disclaimer.html translated="no" translationOutdated="no" %}`
