Puting an obstacle will probably reduce the "hoarding" so it would probably grow a little more than without this. > >> The only reason that I would sustain it for is the fact that I'm aware >> of some russians taking advantage and making a profit but I'm also aware >> that's just a small crumble and it won't affect our bread. > > Please abstain from national attacks. It's bad style of discussion. As a RIPE community member I don't have anything against russians. I would not call "hoarding" what happens today with the last /8 but here is the statistics. +--------------------------------------------------------------+------+ | seller | /22s | +--------------------------------------------------------------+------+ | Bulgakov Aleksey Yurievich | 31 | | QuickSoft LLC | 30 | | Julian Alberto Gomez Hernandez trading as "Adjenet Networks" | 5 | | Abdulrahman Nassir Alahmari trading as SABAH | 4 | | Al Safwa Al Saudia for Development Ltd | 2 | +--------------------------------------------------------------+------+ Theese are the only persons/businesses that sold more than 1 x /22 from the last /8. It's obviously that the whole discussion started after noticing the activity of the top 2, who happens to be from Russia. Ciprian
