Get used to it because even if this Community doesn’t relent and ease
up on needs requirements, the marketplace will take up the slack
outside of ARIN - and a 2nd (or more) defacto marketplace will be
created. It is inevitable and short of a law being past you and I
can’t stop it. As you probably know this is already happening with
the IP brokers out there and I could easily see another RIR who is
out of resources joining up with significant 3rd party brokers to
fill IPv4 needs at market prices worldwide. There is another supply
of IPv4 resources out there in the form of all those Legacy /8’s that
were given out many years ago, and I suspect that demand will bring
some of those resources to market. That supply could defer switching
to IPv6 for years and not everyone likes IPv6.
Then maybe the discussion we should be having is how to reclaim
un-needed IPV4 space.
this discussion should have happened 10 years ago. Now, it's too late.
Everyone knows that IP addresses are worth a buck or two.. The
marketplace exists and at least 3 RIRs acknowledge it and their
communities have built policies for it. Would you give them up if you
would be having a (large) number of unused IPs; IPs that may bring your
organization the money needed to invest in new equipment and skills and
migrate to IPv6 :)
