Do you really think you will motivate someone to give them up by charging 0.1 EUR per address?
That's just a fantasy.

Hello.
Because it solves both purposes
- some small motivation for unused “hoarded” IP address space to be distributed back to those who suffer from total lack of them - at least a little bit will go back to market. There are still really A LOT of entities who hoard them not for the purpose of need (now or in future, commercial or not), but ONLY because some time ago v4 distribution was not managed properly. This, per my opinion, should be somehow resolved.
- small LIR’s without large clients or subnets should not fund RIPE expensive projects on equal basis with transcontinental corporations. Latter will easily agree on 100x price increase just to knock off anyone else - still not even notice this fee. But existing fee and its increase is more than significant for smaller networks or someone trying to enter market.
What I see in proposed schemes is total lack of choice. Let’s not pretend that increase to 1800, increase 1850 or increase to 1900 is actually a choice. It is not! And what I see in this mailing list is that almost everyone agree with this fact.
My initial proposal remains the same: 0.1 EUR (adjusted to real RIPE financial needs) per v4 address in use. Absolutely flat and fair. It will be eventually distributed up to the IP end user by supply chain and be totally unnoticeable for them.
At least there should be couple of more options in vote if community opinion really counted. Otherwise vote is nonsense, why it is needed at all?

At least because large IP holders now have no motivation to release them. The dependence of the contribution on the number of addresses used will give an additional incentive not to keep unnecessary address space._______________________________________________

Dear all,_______________________________________________
Why on earth is everybody trying to monetize IPv4, i.e. make RIPE fees dependant on IPv4 ressources?
I completely fail to see why anybody should pay more for HOLDING any number of IPv4 ressources (or other ressources, by the way).
It’s a different story for ressource transfers. So let those selling IPv4 pay a fee for the transfer!
And for the rest let’s stick to a real membership fee: one price irrespective of which services you use or not. The fitness center doesn’t charge you per minute, nor per device you use. It's a flat membership, full stop. Hopefully low enough so it doesn’t create a problem for anybody's bottom line.
