I2P support anonymous torrents

Define "anonymous". I use Soulseek, but you need an account for that.

Anonymous as the source doesn't know your real IP and intermediate nodes don't know what you're saying (encryption).

With I2P and TOR, only the entry nodes know your real IP, but they don't know what you're saying (thus don't know what you're accessing), and the target node or exit node doesn't know who requested the data.
