What We Do
IPv4.Global facilitates the sale and transfer of IP addresses from an organization that no longer needs their IP addresses to one that does, monetizing hidden assets the company may not even be aware exist.
Internet Protocol (IP) is a set of rules for addressing and routing data so it can travel through networks and arrive at its intended destination. Every internet-connected device has a unique IP address. In the early development of the internet, the design of the version still most widely used today – called IPv4 – included 4.3 billion addresses.
The combination of growing demand and a finite number of IPv4 addresses has increased their market value. They have become the most widely-held, highly-valued hidden assets in the world.
We work with customers to buy and sell IP blocks, regardless of size, and have completed more transfers than any other provider in the world.
