3) What's wrong with treating assignments like property and setting 
up a market to buy and sell them? There's plenty of precedent for this: 

 Mineral rights, mining claims, Oil and gas leases, radio spectrum. 

Before you start making inferences from an analogy,
you had better be sure that you have the right analogy.
IP addresses are not like any of the things that you
mention. They are like phone numbers which also are
not property and also managed by a central admin
function NANPA.
