BoltVM Gives Customers 30 Minutes Notice Of IP Address Changes

Not sure why anyone would rent ARIN space when ARIN fees are barely 600$ - If i had an US/CA company i'd sign up myself because it is so cheap.

For comparsion, RIPE costs 2000EUR setup and 1500EUR yearly....

Hello username, Your services with BoltVM have a new IP address assigned to them within the next 30 minutes (all nodes, except Lightning in LA have been completed). Your old IP address will no longer function once the un-announcement of those ranges propogates. We expect this to take 12 - 48 hours.

The new IP address was assigned in addition to the existing IP address.

We then had 12-48 hours to change DNS before the old IP was revoked.

Please fix your thread title. Thanks

ARIN is still going to expect you to have justification & SWIP's assigned to you. Granted, i'm not sure why he didn't just use CC in the first place, maybe to try to ditch the 'CC host' opinion and or the blacklists that used to exist.

Even in their slow times ARIN's going to easily get things done within 6 months. Most requests should be done in a couple weeks if you submit all your justification and don't have obviously bad account details.

Maybe he was waiting on a SWIP from Skylar and couldn't get one? It's possible he was trying to get a router in each DC and his own ASN, but to be honest I don't think ARIN ever argues with anyone wanting an ASN.

Hate to break this to you, but your business is not actually doing well if you don't have at least a $1,200 cash reserve.
