Christine Lagarde, the president of the European Central Bank, has decided to leave her position as the EU's top central banker before the end of her mandate in October 2027, according to a report in the Financial Times. The move could allow for her successor to be named ahead of presidential elections in France. Also in this edition, Venezuela's interim government issues its first statement on the disputed oil-rich territory of Essequibo.

The EU Single Market is the largest in the world, but it’s far from finished. While goods move freely, services are still trapped behind national rules, paperwork, and bureaucracy. From bakers and builders to digital creators, cross-border work in Europe is often far harder than it should be. These internal barriers cost the EU massive growth and weaken Europe’s global competitiveness. In this video, I break down why the Single Market for services is still broken, using real-world examples. And more importantly, I explain how Europe could actually fix it.

Domain Transition

After several years, the I2P project has re-acquired the i2p.net domain and has begun transitioning from geti2p.net to i2p.net.

A custom redirector script ensures that geti2p.net links automatically resolve to their equivalent pages on i2p.net.

Built for Reliability and Speed

The new site runs on Hugo as a fully static build. Every page is pre-rendered HTML no databases, no runtime rendering, and no unnecessary overhead.

Pages load instantly and can be mirrored anywhere with ease.

That matters for a project like I2P. Static architecture makes redundancy simple. Mirrors can be deployed quickly, and the site remains resilient across clearnet, I2P, and Tor.

JavaScript-Free by Default

With the exception of the donate page (which requires a third-party payment widget), the site runs without JavaScript.

• Dark/light mode is handled server-side
• Navigation is pure CSS
• Documentation feedback and banner controls function without client-side scripts

If something could be implemented without JavaScript, we chose that route.

Documentation and Search Improvements

We’ve expanded and reorganized the documentation with full search across specs, guides, and overview content.

Documentation pages now include a lightweight feedback system so users can vote on whether a page was helpful.

Community-Driven Features

We’ve added a feature request system where users can submit ideas and vote on priorities. Development direction should reflect the needs of the people using the network.

There is also a lightweight polling system for gathering community input. It works across clearnet, I2P, and Tor with appropriate endpoints for each.

Expanded Guides and Localization

A new guides section launches with platform-specific installation instructions for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

We are actively looking for community-contributed guides to expand it further.

The entire site is available in 13 languages:

English, Spanish, Korean, Chinese, Russian, Czech, German, French, Turkish, Vietnamese, Hindi, Arabic, and Portuguese.

Supporting the Project

I2P is free and open for everyone to use, but operating the project involves real-world expenses infrastructure, hosting, development, and ongoing maintenance.

We are now accepting donations. Support is available through cryptocurrency as well as credit, debit, and bank transactions.

All donations are tax-deductible in the United States.

If you rely on I2P and want to help ensure its continued development and availability, financial support makes a direct impact.

Downloads Overhaul

The downloads page has been rebuilt to reduce confusion and improve verification:

• Automatic OS detection highlights the recommended installer
• Direct, mirror, I2P-native, and Tor download options
• GPG signatures and SHA256 checksums provided inline
• Clear “Coming Soon” indicators when releases lag

What’s Next

This rebuild is only the foundation. The next step is expanding practical, real-world documentation especially step-by-step guides for different environments, use cases, and troubleshooting scenarios.

We’ve launched a dedicated guides section with installation coverage for Windows, macOS, and Linux. But we know the community has knowledge that goes far beyond basic setup.

If you’ve written a guide, solved a niche issue, deployed I2P in an interesting environment, or documented a workflow others could benefit from, we’d like to include it.

Community-driven guides will make this site significantly more useful than anything we can produce alone.

If you’re interested in contributing a guide, let us know.

Feedback, bug reports, and contributions are welcome.
