Maybe the buyers started migrating to IPv6 when they saw how expensive IPv4 addresses are and there is a delay before they actually migrate. IPv4 addresses are way more expensive than I thought, upwards of $60 per address, jeez...
At 5% roi though, even $60 an address would be $3 a year. Address owners typically charge far more -- Amazon for example charges $43 an address per year.

My best guess is that the public clouds stopped expanding after the end of ZIRP because startups vanished overnight and demand dried up.

For something called "with Gnuplot", I was expecting it to be just as much a gnuplot tutorial, or at least a "show off" of how to code plots using gnuplot.
But other than that, it was a really nice analysis.
I think it is fine to hide the source code for it, it is a tutorial of sorts.

What is the data source?

The start of the linked post says:
> The data in this demo is taken from the ipv4.global auction.
So I assume either by scraping https://www.ipv4.global/ or from readily prepared downloads of data from them. Haven’t looked around the site to see if there is any prepared data downloads available.
