IPv4 continues to increase in cost. Surely, there is a point where organizations start to cry uncle.
In most western countries there isn't much growth in the total number of connections. It's mostly churn between providers. IPv4 addresses aren't wasted once a customer leaves (unlike for mobile numbers there is no mandated number portability for IP addresses), they can be reused for the next customer, they don't deteriorate when kept in stock, and they can likely be sold for more, later, eventually.
(As long as you buy, not rent, that is, and LIR fees don't significantly increase.)
