Ask HN: I have 10,000 IP addresses over 20 servers - how should I use them?

5 pointsby chatmasta13 anni fa7 comments

I have a network with 10,000+ IP addresses and 20 servers. Currently I rent the IPs out formats scraping proxies and am expanding into a VPN service like HideMyAss. Does anyone have any ideas for how I could better utilize these addresses? The average resource usage of the servers is a little more than 2% right now.

If you don't come up with a good idea, please consider configuring Tor Relays[1] to donate your bandwidth to those who need it. You may have legal troubles though[2].

Create an AS, present your IPs as a end point and route internally to ISPs - there will be ISPs who will feel the pain of no Ip4 soon and will pay and accept the routing headaches for access to another 10,000

Just keep the IP's quality. If you are underutilized then sell more.
