    That /24 may not last forever. ARDC has already sold a substantial part of their original /8 and with a going price of $50 for an IPv4 address they may be tempted to sell more before the bubble burst.

    True, see what happens. :) Hopefully the ham developers will embrace IPv6 more. Newer software, like the M17 infrastructure and IP clients (e.g. DroidStar) do support IPv6, and my M17 reflector is IPv6 capable and had an AAAA record.

    It does not take a crystal ball to see that the IPv4 trade is a bubble that WILL burst in the foreseeable future.

    Yes, there will be a point where everything goes IPv6 and the remains of IPv5 will be little islands connected via IPv6.

    Do Australians make jokes about New Zealanders and vice versa? It is
    the same between the Dutch and the Belgians...

    Yeah we do, for jokes about New Zealanders, it's usually got something to do with sheep. ;)
