Hm, I'm confused, usually the whole point of storing an IP is in case the visitor uses the platform to do something illegal, like a death threat. Without the original IP law enforcement can't subpoena the ISP, etc. But also as someone else said, if you use a nonce, and I think you mean salt, then it can be cracked nearly instantaneously anyways due to the small space of IPv4 (~4 billion).
