 # Chapter 15: Using i2p
 
-There are alternatives to Tor. One is the Invisible Internet Project (I2P), a fully encrypted private network layer. It uses a distributed [network database](https://geti2p.net/en/docs/how/network-database) and encrypted unidirectional tunnels between peers. The biggest difference between Tor and i2P is that Tor is fundamentally a proxy network that offers internet services in a private form, while i2p is fundamentally a sequestered network that offers i2p services only to the i2p network, creating a "network within a network".

However, you might just want it as an alternative, so that you're not dependent solely on Tor.
 
 i2p is not currently installed by [Bitcoin Standup](https://github.com/BlockchainCommons/Bitcoin-Standup-Scripts), as i2p support was recently added in Bitcoin Core. However, this chapter explains how to manually install it.
