Average IPv4 Transfer Prices on the Market in 2025

The data presented shows the average final transfer prices for IPv4 addresses sold through Voldeta in 2025, based on our internal transaction records on a monthly basis. The figures reflect actual completed sales, not advertised or indicative prices. In 2025, prices declined across all segments. Within the block sizes analysed in this report, the strongest decrease occurred in the /19–/17 segment. Prices for /16 IPv4 subnets also continued to fall but are outside the scope of this analysis.

For additional analysis, visual charts are provided showing average IPv4 transfer prices by block size across the main Regional Internet Registries: ARIN, APNIC, and RIPE NCC. These charts provide a clear comparison of IPv4 prices across regions.

Despite the general downward trend in 2025, /22–/24 IPv4 blocks showed the highest level of price stability. Prices in this segment also declined, but to a lesser extent than in mid-size blocks.

A recurring year-end effect was observed toward the end of 2025, when prices for small IPv4 blocks such as /22–/24 temporarily decreased. This was mainly driven by sellers aiming to complete transfers before year-end in order to avoid additional LIR membership fees. In early January 2026, we are observing that prices for /22–/24 blocks in the RIPE region are increasing again. Based on current transactions, we expect January 2026 to close with prices in this segment approximately 1–2 EUR per IPv4 address higher, depending on the RIR, than in December 2025.

The comparatively higher average prices for /22–/24 blocks in the RIPE region, compared to other RIRs, are not explained solely by regional market conditions. They are also influenced by the price difference between ASSIGNED PA and ASSIGNED PI /24 blocks, with ASSIGNED PI IPv4 networks traded throughout the year in the range of 27–31 EUR per IP-address, which affects the overall average for RIPE /22–/24 IPv4 subnets.
