As opposed to "reclaiming" addresses i.e. returning addresses to the registries, we should come up with a scheme were institutions can sell their addresses (i.e. IPv4 addresses should become property). This would give institutions that possess very large blocks of addresses a large incentive to effectively utilize their address space.

We could go on for a long-time with IPv4 if the above were to occur.
