Other than Monero and Zcash, IPs will be completely hidden. It's a truly anonymous coin.

No, Verge is not 'truly' anonymous.

It is anonymous. But it is not private. That's a difference.

It is neither. Merriam-Webster, first definition of 'anonymous': "of unknown authorship or origin". As said before because Verge is traceable and linkable just like BitCoin you can tell the origin and 'author' of a transaction by just a glance on the blockchain. BitCoin is best case pseudonymous, and now that the busts of the DarkNet Markets AlphaBay, Hansa, and busts of BTC-e and tumblers have happened, that pseudonymous can be considered a joke. Tor does not protect against the same issues the BitCoin does because these the traceability and linkability is on the blockchain, not the initial tx broadcast. Therefore Verge has same joke of pseudonymous properties that BitCoin does; it is not 'truly' anonymous.
