    <p>That is precisely one of the main points: to disincentivize
      organizations from joining the waitlist in order to sell for a
      profit later.</p>
    <p>If an organization acquires space from the waitlist no longer
      needs it it should not be able to sell the space given that space
      was already 'acquired' in a scenario that doesn't allow anymore
      any ease the selling of it. These tiny spaces available should
      really be for those who don't have absolutely any space to allow
      them to exist in the Internet and undertake.</p>
    <p>If an organization has space acquired from the waiting list and
      not longer need or justify it should return it to ARIN voluntarily
      or forcibly. And there should be the necessary provisions in the
      policies to support ARIN to take that space back in order to
      allocate to those who really need. Sometimes when this  is
      mentioned some people don't like to read maybe because they put
      themselves in a future hypothetical scenario so them get scary to
      agree but that is the correct thing to do in the sense o proper
      fairness. No organization should be allowed to hold unused or
      space that lost its justification while there are plenty of other
      organizations waiting to use it properly to connect people to the
      Internet, specially for space received via the waiting list.<br>
    </p>
    <p>The most important thing to change about the waiting list is to
      only allocate them to organizations that do not have any space at
      all. Those who have already can live with it or alternatively go
      to the transfer market.</p>

        <div>Re: Preventing waitlist recipients from transferring their
          space indefinitely (instead of only a five-year lockout)</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>The point of this change seems to be to disincentivize
          organizations from joining the waitlist simply to acquire
          space they can later sell for a profit.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>That makes sense. But it helps to consider how changing the
          lockout period affects other incentives. </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>If an organization acquires space from the waitlist and no
          longer needs it (assume the five-year period has elapsed),
          that org has a strong financial incentive to sell the space.
          For example, if the market price per address at that time is,
          say, $37, a /22 might be worth ~$38,000. (Not making any
          statements about market price; just picking an arbitrary price
          for the sake of this hypothetical.) Selling that space would
          put it in the hands of another entity that would actually use
          it, improving the efficient allocation of space.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>On the other hand, if the organization that acquired
          waitlist space no longer needs it, and ARIN restricts the org
          indefinitely from transferring that space to another entity,
          then it would cost that org only $500/year to hold onto it
          instead of returning it to ARIN. The organization might think,
          "Well, I don't currently need this space. But it's possible I
          might need it in the future. Better to pay $500/year and keep
          it just in case rather than return it to ARIN and go to the
          back of the waitlist if I need IPv4 space in the future."
          (Invitation to supplement/correct my fee assumptions here)</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>In other words, permitting resale after some period might
          promote the more efficient use of space. What is the right
          resale lockout period to promote the efficient use of space
          while discouraging entities from joining the waitlist solely
          to get space they can resell? Hard to say. But I don't think
          an indefinite lockout period adequately balances those
          competing incentives.</div>
