Sylvain, the price in a market is not known in advance. I will be set by competitive bidding and reflect supply and demand. I don't know where you got this 1,75 Euro number
Until complete /8 depletion a LIR cost is 1800 €/annum to easily get a /22 that is 1024 addresses.
1800 / 1024 = 1.75 € per address and per year.
This calculation is IMHO a little to simple, as each legal entity may become only once LIR. So you'd also need to add the costs of setting up some more legal entities ...
My point was this 1.75 cost-price is low enough to allow commercial abuses if the fair distribution, documentation and conservation rules are removed from Ripe policies.
Which is another deregulation signal I do not expect from Ripe.
Abuse and missuse of setting up LIRs is not a question for adress-policy but for rules how to become LIR and I think that these rules are already well defined, to prevent such abuse. Best Regards Jens
