Base32 encoded hash of a Base64 address

The Basics

A Base32 address is a shortened, encoded version of an @I2P address. The Base32 address is the first part in a .b32.i2p hostname.

Example:

i35yftyyb22xhcvghmev46t5knefur5v66qzekkajatwfwhyklvq.b32.i2p

where

i35yftyyb22xhcvghmev46t5knefur5v66qzekkajatwfwhyklvq is the Base32 address.

In-depth Information

Ultimately, a Base32 address is a 52 character Base32 encoded representation of the full SHA-256 hash of an @I2P @base64-address.

TODO(anonimal): finish (256 bits, etc.)

Notes

Note: .b32 is not a sub-domain of .i2p
