The title doesn't make sense.

The host is using IPv6 but that doesn't have anything to do with hiding an IP or not.

Line through it with a sharpie?

That's an IPv6 address, it's still an IP.

The only way to "hide" an IP is to use a VPN, but since you're going to open a hosting service, you can't.

I'm just gonna throw out the fact everyone is thinking. Shelf you're idea and learn what it takes to start a hosting service first. Just your question proves you're not ready..

Agree, really.  If you aren't familiar with transport protocols then you're gonna have a bad time.

Agree too, sounds like OP barely knows anything about networking.

OP didn't even knew that was an IPv6 address.

I know a lot about Linux that's why I'm interested to open up a hosting services or something
Seems I'm not quite ready yet.
Anyways thanks for your suggestions.

Don't take me wrong, i'm not trying to criticie in any way. But a hosting service requires alot more then just linux knowledge. If anything i hope my seemingly negative comment inspired you to study on what you need to start a hosting service. Because it is possible and i am doing it myself..

Well, if hiding an IP is mandatory, I would say it's nearly impossible. However, you can use some sort of dynamic DNS services that will randomly change your IP on a regular manner while keeping the DNS name intact. Another option is using some sort of DDoS protection services like Cloudflare https://www.cloudflare.com/ that will hide your actual IP and DNS behind their service. 

In order to pass this problem to someone's other shoulders, I would try reselling hosting services on top of other existing services. This way you don't have to mess around technical issues and concentrate on business/marketing stuff.
