How does one feasibly purchase IP blocks these days? Most blocks that are available are starting in the six figure range, generally higher from what I see.
Six figures should get you one hell of a block, it's more like 6k for a /24 IPv4 block sale.
An IPv6 block, as used here, should be "free" (as in registration fees alone).
If you register a new company with only IPv6 there are ways to get one or two "free" (as in registration fees alone) /24 IPv4 blocks to aid in NAT64 and DNS hosting for your first ASN. All in all it was something a little over 1k for me to get an Org ID + ASN + /40 IPv6 + a /23 IPv4.
