IPv4 situation in Europe

How are European companies dealing with the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses from the RIR?

In November 2019 the RIPE NCC (Réseaux IP Européens Network Coordination Centre) announced the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses. After over 35 years of distributing IP blocks, the European Registry had to stop due to a shortage of resources. The problems surrounding this matter hurt many companies and are still a major issue for many of them. The deficit of IP addresses is precluding many companies in Europe but also around the world to grow their networks and adding new users to them.

The scarcity of resources in Europe is increasing day by day. Countries like Spain, Germany, Italy, or Sweden are already suffering this impediment. These particular countries among many others already used more than 90% of the IPv4 addresses allocated in their regions and require new solutions to achieve their targets.

From 2019 on a new picture had to be built by those corporations looking for IPv4 addresses. Nowadays, finding IP Blocks relies on joining the RIPE NCC waiting list which can take a long time before receiving the needed resource or exploring the options of the market. The market is surrounded by IP Brokers managing the IP transfers between both seller and buyer. Most normally companies will only offer a purchase option in which the company will have to pay a substantial amount of money to receive the IP addresses. Getting the IPs will normally take a long time as big blocks are harder to find and also harder to deploy.
