Feature: Add i2p support to DAT
Why?: Mainly for privacy and security but also to support decentralized web communications.
How?: BitTorrent already has wide usage of i2p thank to i2p-snarks and XD.

I'd love to play around with this. Is there a Node.js implementation of i2p?

Getting java into our stack would be a big no-no, and I'm not sure how much effort it'd be to add a C++ library to play nice with everything.

I think once we get the Daemon and SDK set up, it'd be easier to start thinking about anonymity and stuff. Funding for such research would of course be welcome. :)

Personally I'm not in favour of Dat having a Daemon version.
If you talk about i2p, eh, it could be spawned from Dat's JS and communicate through RPC.
