But only the recipient must put them under an RSA in order to have them registered. The source need not have an RSA or LRSA for their legacy blocks, at least as I understand it. I'd also suggest that having a broker is useful, because the few well-known ones that exist are well-versed in the process by now, for all types of sources and destinations.

Note that you can't sell the block as an "owned asset" and have ARIN recognize the change. ARIN does not recognize ownership of IP address blocks, they only recognize registration and authorized agents.
This would seem to be in violation of what the NSF has said about this space. I thought ARIN was slapped hard once before about this very thing?
To the best of my knowledge, that's not the case. Every relevant court case has ended one of two ways:
1. The addresses were revoked after the POC was (correctly) determined not currently represent the (defunct) registrant. 2. The registrant consented to place the addresses under an ARIN RSA without a judicial ruling. (e.g. Microsoft/Nortel)
