It won’t. I believe most will either a) rent out, or b) sell their unused IP addresses if it becomes a choice between having to pay for the privilege of keeping vs converting them to either continuous (renting out) or onetime (sale) revenue.

LIRs who have an acute IPv4 address deficit will, realistically, need to procure more addresses on the free market. That is, if they intend to grow their business and not let it stagnate.

Subject: Re: [members-discuss] [ncc-announce] [GM] Consultation on RIPE NCC Charging Scheme
 
Hello,

I think it is very necessary to address the problem of LIRs that need
IPs in relation to LIRs that have +80% of their IPs unused.

How to fix? maybe a pay per individual IP model?

For example: 0.25 €/year per IP.

I think this will make those who have unused IPs give them back and
reduce speculation, which I think are the two big problems.

Thanks!
