I oppose this.
Even with IPv4 addresses being worth merely $10 each, the value of a /22
of address space from the waiting list is $10,240. Clearly that is enough
of a value to incorporate. In reality, the current market rate is much
higher than that. I think a total NO SELL agreement is the only thing
that will prevent abuse of the waiting list, but if the party is a
corporation, nothing would prevent corporate sale or transfer to avoid
these restrictions.
I would rather eliminate the waiting list, and place this space into the
4.10 pool, as at least that space requires a commitment to IPv6.
I do not know when we will reach the peak of the IPv4 marketplace, but it
is clear that if the internet wishes to grow beyond 4.3B addresses, IPv6
is the only currently available protocol that can grow beyond the 4.3B
address limit of IPv4.

May I ask how this situation will avoid that someone to register a new
company, get into the waiting list, receive a /22 and right after that be
"purchased" by another company which is not entitled to be in the waiting
list anymore bypassing the restriction ?
Although it may not be the easiest thing to do deal with all paperwork,
bureaucracy and register company, depending on the rising price of IPv4 in
the market someone may find that became worth the effort and this could
(not right now, but at some point in the future) turn into a way to bypass
the waiting list restriction as the mathematics will cover all the costs
involved in the whole transaction.
At first seeing I identify this proposal may bring an issue in such
scenario and perhaps there should still be some minimal time restriction,
not necessarily 60 months, but something that makes it more difficult for
fraudsters to act with such intention.

Draft Policy ARIN-2020-1: Clarify Holding Period for Resources Received
via 4.1.8 Waitlist
Problem Statement:
A recent Policy Experience Report reported ambiguity on the part of
customers as to whether or not the 60-month restriction on transferring
resources received via NRPM Section 4.1.8 applies to M&A transfers under
NRPM Section 8.2. This proposal clarifies this restriction to exempt 8.2
transfers from this restriction.
Policy Statement: Update NRPM Section 4.1.8 as follows:
Original Text:
Address space distributed from the waitlist will not be eligible for
transfer for a period of 60 months.
New Text:
Address space distributed from the waitlist will not be eligible for
transfer, with the exception of Section 8.2 transfers, for a period of 60
months.”
Comments:
Timetable for implementation: immediate
