[members-discuss] RIPE NCC Charging Scheme 2025 Open House: Recording and Slides Available

There was no proposal of any “deallocation” in this thread. Only gradually creating flat fee based on number of addresses, regardless if it’s legacy resource or not. Any company of any size willing to lower fee will be motivated to review it’s IP usage policy and to sell or return addresses they do not use.

I’m not sure about exact fee, 1 USD was just an example - this must be counted based on current RIPE operating needs. Maybe somewhere between 10 cents and 1 dollar per address per year.

Many small or medium projects will be able to get some minimal addresses they actually need without huge investment and being punished for the fact they are not from 90’s.

And comparing ISP that actually uses few /16’s for broadband customers and some small non-profit local network is not normal, they should not pay same fee.
