If no, why not? > Liquidity will be generated almost entirely by existing address space > holders releasing existing address space into the market. So the > interesting question is: just how much slack space is there out there? Probably impossible to answer accurately. The best indication I could come up with is to 1) compare pre-depletion allocation rates with post-depletion transfer rates, making the assumption that the actual demand has at least not decreased, and 2) compare supply with demand at the RIPE NCC's listing site. Today's numbers: Pre-depletion IPv4 RIR->LIR allocation stats (20110914-20120725): - allocations: 1980 - addresses: 36052992 Post-depletion IPv4 LIR->LIR allocation transfer stats (20120914-20130725): - transfers: 70 (3.54% of pre-depletion) - addresses: 1189888 (3.30% of pre-depletion) RIPE NCC IPv4 Transfer Listing Service stats: - requested: 15043584 - available: 225280 (1.50% of requested) Tore
