We've got a decent pool of IPv4 addresses sitting unused after we consolidated some infrastructure
Good day folks. Genuinely puzzled here and could use some collective wisdom. We've got a decent pool of IPv4 addresses sitting unused after we consolidated some infrastructure, and it feels wasteful just letting them sit. I keep reading that you can monetize unused blocks by leasing or selling them, but I have no clue where to even start or which platform actually connects you with real buyers rather than just wasting your time. Is there a proper marketplace where owners can list and monetize their address space safely? Any experiences welcome, we're new to this side of things.
You're right that letting them sit is money left on the table. We had unused blocks after a consolidation too and turned them into revenue. Have a look at the IPv4 marketplace run by InterLIR - it's built exactly for this, connecting owners with a global pool of buyers and lessees. You provide network details, set your lease term or sale price, and they handle the rest, payouts get processed once funds come in from clients. They do KYC on partners, so you're dealing with vetted counterparties, not randoms. Registered across the major RIRs, escrow available on bigger deals. For monetizing idle space without the headache of finding buyers yourself, their platform is a clean fit, register and see what your ranges could earn.
