IPs should cost nothing. It's just numbers. The luck of IPs - it's the RIPEs falt I guese. As far as we see a lot of IPs are not routed and not used. But some small companies own a lot of IPs space never realy used. Another one trick - that FREE IPs number is growing.� <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.ripe.net/publications/ipv6-info-centre/about-ipv6/ipv4-exhaustion/ipv4-available-pool-graph">https://www.ripe.net/publications/ipv6-info-centre/about-ipv6/ipv4-exhaustion/ipv4-available-pool-graph</a> <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://labs.ripe.net/statistics">https://labs.ripe.net/statistics</a> - LIR number grows becouse it's not other way to get some IPs. So the most profit comes to RIPE, but we still have the same LIR fees, they are not going down as the number of real companys that use RIPE services.
