From the article, 79 million IPv4 addresses, 0.005/hour($3.60/month), and an estimated 30% utilisation. $85m per month, $1bn/y.
It kinda also sets a new standard price for IPV4 addresses. I’m looking forward to the day that IPV6 (or translation) is commonplace enough that things can be run V6 only.
I’ve given up on the IPv6 transition happening in my lifetime.
