    <p>Yeah, if someone is leasing IP addresses means that he (the
      resource holder) doesn't have use for them anymore. As such ARIN
      (or any other RIR) should recover those addresses then. IP
      addresses were never made of thought to be leased in this way as
      asset that can be leased.<br>

      Hi John,
      <div class=""><br class="">
      </div>
      <div class="">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.</div>
