Robert, If the IP belongs to an ISP or a Network provider then every ISP or Network carrier always lease their IP's to their clients, that does not make it illegal, that is their business. Thanks Hayee Hello Mike,
Why are you using John's "waiting list IPv4 blocks transferred" numbers as a baseline for the /19 numbers? This is completely arbitrary and doesn't give any scale as to the problem with fraud. See my earlier reply to John's email in the other thread: "Thanks for sharing. I'd like to note that it can be dangerous to use the blocks transferred via 8.2/8.3/9.4 as a metric for abuse. A fraudster that gets past ARIN's scrutiny and obtains IPs with fraudulent information is probably smart enough to lease their IPs as opposed to selling the space outright. There is a huge market for leased space, and those deals happen behind closed doors with no oversight from ARIN. IP addresses go for $0.2-0.5/mo depending on term/IP reputation/size which could lead to $XX,XXX in illicit revenue with no risk of ARIN's scrutiny which would normally occur during the transfer process."

Many feel as you do, that unused addresses should be returned to ARIN for subsequent distribution to those in need. Unfortunately, that policy was not successful in bringing unused addresses into actual use by those in need. The community decided to harness the profit motive to incentive this process, and by all accounts it is working. Unfortunately the profit motive also incentivizes fraudulent plundering of the waiting list pool. So I am happy to discuss the correct balancing of things to prevent fraud but allow the market to continue to drive us towards the desirable ends of accurate registration and efficient use. Since the /19 is the threshold number of sorts for flipping, I could accept a /20 as the maximum size. I think a 2 year wait is reasonable, but I don’t see the additional benefit as worth the distinction of ARIN space into more classes. And making it more complicated with multiple waiting periods is even less desirable, IMO.

People will lease unused addresses to others and Whois accuracy will suffer if they can’t resell them. Not accurate registration. If people lease they prove they have no use for the addresses and again ARIN should recover them at any time. If whois is inaccurate, well it is their fault and not policies fault. They must bind to the current rules not the other way round. I think we should give everybody currently on the list up to a /19 and then restrict new entries to a /22. Fair to discuss this scenario, although I still think /19 is too much. Agree on /22 for new entries. I think a 5 year resale wait is too long, based on the paltry resales of prior waiting-list subnets smaller than /19. It may be long, but 2 years seems a little short and 'acceptable' for a fraudster. Perhaps something in between. I support a /22 restriction for new entrants, a /19 max for current list members, and maintenance of the 12 month wait for simplicity’s sake. What about discuss /22 for new entrants, /20 for current list members and 36, 42 or 48 months for transfers ? Seems more reasonable in my view and cover most aspects of this discussion.

I believe that the lack of legacy holders for any blocks issued under 4.1.8 reduces the need for the market. Defunct organizations can easily be reclaimed in this space because they stop paying their ARIN bill. Eliminating the resale value of these addresses won’t really encourage squatting on them and limiting the size of organization and size of block that can benefit from 4.1.8 further helps to reduce the potential for hoarding. I realize that as a broker, any address that can’t be monetized is a lost opportunity for your organization, but I think there’s plenty of addresses out there that haven’t been processed through 4.1.8, so I don’t think limiting the resale potential of such blocks to reduce fraud is a bad idea.

While we want to fight fraud, we should still remember the underlying reasons for the Ipv4 transfer market apply to these addresses as well. That is, the market provides incentives for efficient use and accurate registration.
