Webinar 11am EST Today – What Drives IPv4 Demand in Today’s Market?

Jake Brander, founder of Brander Group, will be featured in an upcoming industry webinar on Thursday at 8:00am PST, focused on the evolving state of the global IPv4 market. The session brings together network operators, service providers, and infrastructure stakeholders to discuss how technical constraints, regulatory pressure, and market dynamics continue to shape IPv4 demand—and why address scarcity remains a critical issue despite ongoing IPv6 adoption.

Key topics to be discussed:

IPv6 and Internet Traffic
IPv6 adoption is increasing, but it has not reduced IPv4 demand. Dual-stack deployments and IPv4 fallback behavior keep IPv4 deeply embedded in production networks.

CG-NAT and CALEA Compliance
CG-NAT extends IPv4 availability but introduces significant compliance, logging, and attribution challenges for service providers.

Who Consumes IPv4 Today
Demand has shifted away from legacy telecom networks toward cloud providers, hosting companies, ISPs, content platforms, and enterprises.

RIR Transfer Policy
Regional transfer policies directly influence IPv4 liquidity, pricing, and transaction timelines.

BEAD Funding Impact
New broadband deployments may drive near-term IPv4 demand as networks scale ahead of full IPv6-native architectures.

IPv4 Pricing in 2026
Structural scarcity and continued enterprise reliance are expected to support IPv4 pricing despite short-term volatility.

Jake’s participation highlights Brander Group’s leadership in IPv4 market strategy, policy insight, and transaction expertise in a market that remains constrained—and far from obsolete.
