Just saw the announcement. Another RIR reached their last /8 equivalent. Predictable. Boring. We all saw this coming since, what, 2011?
I should care more. I don't. Market prices will spike again, small operators will cry, big operators will make a server up with CGNAT and call it "experience." Same story.
Regards.
(Actually I just got approval for our last needed /22. Quietly. Through a broker I've used for years. Paid too much, but it's ours. Clean, no hijack history, SWIP updated. My network is complete. I will never post about this anywhere public. This thread is my celebration. My competitors can panic-buy into the spike. I'll be over here, subnetting in peace.)

"water is wet" he says, while clearly sweating with the "I don't care" posts that care the most

Prices on the broker market already up 40% since January. Just shipped a pallet of Gen14 to hetzner.com for a client who thinks IPv6 "isn't mature yet."
Their power draw: 3.2kW per rack. Their foresight: 0W.
/22 gets you what, 1022 hosts? Two years of growth for a mid-size shop if you're not stupid about it.

Like... does this mean I can't get a small block for my homelab anymore? I was looking at maybe a /24 from cloudcone.com but now I'm scared.
I don't need much, just want to learn BGP properly. Thanks everyone!
