Well, the issue is they are not assets, how do you sell something you dont own? If you receive money, how do you transfer the asset? Do you have some kind of bond certificate or something??!


It can't be transfered. The netblock is allocated to who ARIN says it is. If they do decide to do recalls, just posting the block in this forum is enough to initiate a utilization check. Besides, why would someone pay for something they can get for free? Show need, and it is given. I'm sure someone would love a /16 to brag about, but good luck getting ARIN to alter who owns it.
