With the average annual cost of a LIR being about 2KEuro, what is to stop some malicious actor with 5MEuro in his/her pocket to creating 2500 valid new paying members and hijacking the vote for the board and the vote for cost sharing and in regards to new allocations? I think the time has come for RIPE NCC to create "golden shares": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_share assigned to around 20-30 well known organizations/people that have always had the best interest of RIPE on their minds - which can outvote any hostile takeover.
