As Bogdan mentioned, these seem to be a bunch of intra-RIR transfers. I'm sorry, but I'm not seeing that. What makes you think that this was other than a set of***simple intra-company transfers (and NOT a set of inter-RIR transfers)? * I just checked the biggest block (77.220.64.0/19) at the URL that people here gave me, and it appears that this came from a company called "Internet One SRL" which appears to be located in Romania.
Last time I looked, Romania was still within the RIPE region, so I wonder how you concluded that this was an inter-RIR transfer.
I'm not sure if it has ever been explained why (if it has my apologies for the obliviousness), but any transfer of v4 or v6 seems to "re-create" the RIPE Database object, thus the very recent date. Worse, I can't get full history (from WHOIS) on the blocks.
But I think this (WHOIS full history) problem/issue was discussed awhile back on the DB Working group mailing list, and I think the decision was reached to try to make available fully histories of blocks, even across inter-company transfers.
But it seems like maybe that didn't quite get fully implemented yet.
