At the risk of feeding the troll, ARIN is not 'ending'.  APNIC and RIPE 
didn't 'end' when they exhausted their supply of IPv4 addresses.

Will some people acquire IPv4 addresses on the secondary market?  Sure, 
though there are limits to how small chunks of IPv4 can be sliced up and 
maintain any realistic hope of global routability.  That's something that 
is *not* dictated by the RIRs.
