Free Access to World Knowledge Beyond Government's Firewall.
VPN Gate Academic Experiment Project is an online service as an academic research at Graduate School of University of Tsukuba, Japan. The purpose of this research is to expand the knowledge of "Global Distributed Public VPN Relay Servers" .
You can take these advantages by using VPN Gate:
You can get through the government's firewall to browse restricted web sites (e.g. YouTube). You can disguise your IP address to hide your identity while surfing the Internet. You can protect yourself by utilizing its strong encryption while using public Wi-Fi.
Unlike traditional VPN services, VPN Gate can get through most firewalls. VPN Gate is free of charge. Not a single registration is required "
" I2P
I2P is an anonymous overlay network - a network within a network. It is intended to protect communication from dragnet surveillance and monitoring by third parties such as ISPs. "

I'm a bit confused. You have mentions of VPN Gate and I2P interweaved in the same message. How are they related?

Similar to tor, these networks both offer 'exit' functionality to their users that you can help support by running such nodes on them. Their reasons for being are similar to tor. And operator's exit skills there are highly applicable to them.
If you're still confused, search and read their websites and try their apps.

Thank you comrade.

Why is it important to have a "non tor Listed IP" ?
Cant one just run I2P and a tor relay on the same IP?

Yes you can run and contribute to many of the other anonymous overlay, distributed filesystem, messaging, privacy coin, etc networks all using the same IP. It's fun.
For those networks that provide an 'exit' outproxy function, whether auto or manually configured, yes any additional exit nodes you add to them could be helpful to the respective networks.
Using same IP, the added node would have no better than tor's average access to read things on the internet because tor's exits are scraped out of the consensus, and reported, and added to many DNSBL, abuse / spam DB, Google / CloudFlare captcha, GeoLocation, blacklist, etc systems on the planet.
The other overlays, while quite capable, are much less known than tor, thus less likely to have their exits and nodes in as many blacklists.
In some sense, adding a blacklisted tor exit IP to those networks could be considered a reduction of their average access rates. Consult each on tradeoff between cleaner access and node count, they might not prefer to have too many dirty tor IPs. And to characterize such rates of each overlay network you'd have to run a study to measure them.
If you can't browse, signup, use a website using a dirty tor exit IP, then likely for at least so long as that IP remains a tor exit IP, trying to do so from that same IP as part of another overlay network will also fail.
The access issues are partly why some tor exit operators use OutboundBindAddress, NAT, and even offer out of band OpenVPN termination... to separate ORPort IP in consensus from actual exit IP, a way to try raising the access:blacklist ratio.
Run whatever nodes you like :)
