Hi Martin

That has never been a problem. Everyone working in building internet 
being an ISP, a cloud provider or anything related need the IP space to 
connect people therefore for the propose they were established and have 
always been there. IP space certainly was not created to be made 
available for renting or being traded "per se" without any connectivity 
services attached for example. This doesn't build any internet in the 
region by itself.

One thing is to have someone deciding things alongside with others with 
the same propose to build internet and another would be someone taking a 
chance on a situation of scarcity that is not good to the community 
being able to make certain decisions that may subvert the main propose 
of IP addresses.
