None of the cryptocurrency communities have successfully integrated with I2P.
The primary goal being to include a native I2P routing client within all of the respective cryptocurrency's daemon's and client software.
(Most cryptocurrencies broadcast a lot of information about you to the nodes, and when you really dive into it, the result is a little unsettling. In this regard it is kind of like bittorrent where other peers in the network can see information about you.)
As far as formal partnerships go, Anoncoin was the closest, where they got some public mention from the I2P stewards, and had icons on the I2P dashboard when you logged into that darknet. Anoncoin's steward disappeared with an unsuccessful zerocoin implementation and exit scam.
This was 2014.
Monero is an opaque blockchain that has worked out of the box as a private cryptocurrency since early 2014. My cryptocurrency market capitalization, it has remained around #10 for two years.
It is one of the more actively developed cryptocurrencies, and I2P integration is still on their roadmap.
There's nothing else to really say about I2P. There hasn't been much public research into how it works or vulnerabilities, as with the TOR network. I understand it works quite a bit differently, and what I do know is appealing.
But it is currently "meh". Some sites that are super annoying to TOR users, work extremely well under I2P and don't detect that you are not a clearnet user.
