We agree with this too:

"LIR has a lot of IPs => LIR has a lot of customers or payed services => LIR earns more money"

LIR's should pay for extra IP's, however It would be nicer if there are some discounts for new and smaller LIR's so they can expand their business more quickly and easier on the start. The current "market" rate of $10 per IPv4 is simply to high...

All the best,

If LIR want to get more IPs and don't to want pay for it - he don't really need it.
He just want to get as much IPs as he can get for keeping it in store. And trying to get maximum IPs at minimal cost.

If you need IPs - you will pay for it. If you are not ready to pay for it - you don't need it.
That is how I see it.

I agree with this part. In my opinion:

LIR has a lot of IPs => LIR has a lot of customers or payed services => LIR earns more money

That’s why I think that all LIRs have to pay fixed rate for each /24 block. If they really need them they will pay for it. If they are not ready to pay for it - they don’t use their IPs efficiently or they have too many blocks.

I’m not writing about the price per /24 block. Just about general - and very simple - rule.

Kind regards,
Michal
