## Run Bitcoin Core with an I2P router (proxy)
A running I2P router (proxy) with [SAM](https://geti2p.net/en/docs/api/samv3)
enabled is required (there is an [official one](https://geti2p.net) and
[a few alternatives](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I2P#Routers)). Notice the IP
address and port the SAM proxy is listening to; usually, it is
`127.0.0.1:7656`. Once it is up and running with SAM enabled, use the following
Bitcoin Core options:
enabled is required. Options include:
- [i2prouter (I2P Router)](https://geti2p.net), the official implementation in
Java

([documentation](https://i2pd.readthedocs.io/en/latest)), a lighter
alternative in C++ (successfully tested with version 2.23 and up; version 2.36

`127.0.0.1:7656`.

Core configuration options:
