Now all we need is for someone to make a crypto currency so you can fractionally own IPv4 addresses.

Presumably this would be port-based fractional and 443/tcp would cost a premium.

  • I was thinking it was more of a "more than 50%" ownership controls the routing tables. Love the chaos.

  • It's already possible to "split" a frontend HTTP server on a given IP and port to arbitrary backend IPs and ports via the Host header and reverse proxies.
