> I don’t see an easy way for a hedge fund to rent out the IP space unless they are a cloud provider. This is a solved problem these days. I personally know of IPXO[0] and can vouch for them as being legitimate and well ran. If you have an idle /20 laying around or whatever, I highly suggest getting it on their market and making some relatively easy money leasing out your blocks. The total interaction (short of initial setup) these days is clicking a few buttons in your favorite interface to publish ROA records every so often when an IP block sees churn. A hedge fund could hire a junior neteng to handle those requests, the very rare abuse complaint, and any hijacked routes you need to track down. Overall this is becoming a mature market with a number of players emerging for a public market. In private it's been going on for some time on a much more informal basis. [0] ipxo.com
