All destinations in I2P are 516-byte (or longer) keys.
(To be more precise, it is a 256-byte public key plus a 128-byte signing key
plus a null certificate, which in Base64 representation is 516 bytes.
<a href="{{ namingdiscussion }}#certificates">Certificates</a> are not used now,
if they are, the keys will be longer.
One possible use of certificates is for <a href="{{ todo }}#hashcash">proof of work</a>.)
plus a 3-or-more byte certificate, which in Base64 representation is 516 or more bytes.
Non-null <a href="{{ namingdiscussion }}#certificates">Certificates</a> are in use now
for signature type indication.
Therefore, certificates in recently-generated destinations are more than 3 bytes.
