Can current rare items be enchanted?

Blue probably has clarified this but if not I would like to get a confirmation.

All of the enchanting pictures are about the legendaries but not rare items. Also, even tho future lvl70 rare items can be enchanted, I'm still not sure whether that will apply to current good rare items such as gloves or ammies.

Just wanna make sure.

Rares, both current and new, will be able to enchanted. =) Enchanting restrictions currently include:

Each item may only have one property slot changed.
Special qualities inherent to an item (like Movement Speed on Lacuni Prowlers, for example) cannot be changed.
Enchanting an item makes that item Bind on Account.

Will I be able to add new statistics ?

Enchanting does not allow you to add another statistic to an item - it only allows you to reroll/exchange a single stat currently on an item for a different stat. Hope that provides a little more clarification about the feature.

Is that how it will work or I can only have one affix enchanted on each item?

You may only ever change one property on an item with Enchanting. The property you choose to change, however, can be rerolled as much as you like.

Say you are a Barbarian and you have an item with 80 strength but would rather have 150 which say is the max roll on that item. Can you do that?

You can, but bear in mind that would prevent you from rerolling any other stat on that item in the future.

My account was hacked rolled-back months ago and my gears are now BoA. Can the gears still be enchanted? I know this question may not be a concern for many people.

Still a legitimate concern! Yes, you should be able to enchant items you currently have, regardless of whether or not they are already Bind on Account. This does not affect their eligibility.
