I was having an argument with a friend. He says that you can't be anonymous to the bitcoin's network. Both nodes and wallets use, leads to an ip address where information can be found.

I had read in this forum that you can hide it with hardware? How exactly?

We can hide our identity with Bitcoin but it is debatable if it is 100% or not since Bitcoin is known for pseudonymity, not anonymity but, long as you don't connect your bank account or personal info on the address, you can easily hide your identity with Bitcoin simply by using TOR to mask your IP.  If you want to cash out via third exchange platform, you can also use TOR plus mixers, TOR to mask your IP and mixer to dilute and make it harder or impossible to trace the source of the Bitcoin address where the fund came.
