### 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](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base32) of the full SHA-256 hash of an @I2P @base64-address.

### Notes
|
|
|
|
**Note: `.b32` is not a sub-domain of `.i2p`**
