Quite frankly, if this model were adopted with no waitlist, it would not be surprising if a venture capital fund came in and just started buying IP space to reduce supply and control the price.<br></span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">If that's what we want as a community, then so be it. <b>My recommendation is to eliminate IP leasing or transfer entirely for any space obtained from the waitlist.</b> If customers want a /24 or larger, they go to ARIN, get their own space, and go through the appropriate justification process.
