Pedja,
There are so few purchasers for an IP Block of this size, it would be
pointless to have a public sale.
The largest consumers of legacy IPv4 address space are hosting/cloud
companies.
Only the top 3 largest cloud companies would have an appetite for a large
IP Block like this, and of those 3 companies, one is substantially larger
than the other two.
Selling this off as a /24 at a time would be difficult, onerous, and bring
in drips and dribbles of non-material amounts of money for this
underutilized asset.
Selling it as one large chunk is appropriate for this type of resource.
It's also not a unique transaction, and there are benchmarks for this sort
of transaction.
Such as:

in regard to how AMPR could handle the budget
obtained from breaking up the
44/8 IP address space block.
I did not have much concern until the latest news ow spending money for
some ones personal gain.
First we had secret sale of IP block. After it happened we were told
that it was on buyer's request. It sounded strange.
It is reasonable that buyer wants his identity, and even offer secret
and should be obliged. But, keeping secret fact that IP block was on
sale was actually damaging for seller. If it was publicly known, other
interested parties could show and offer more. As you said IP addresses
are like gold. When you have such goods for sale, you make sure everyone
that may be interested knows about it as it guarantees higher price.
Then we have this, first money that is spend is spend on personal
behalf. I expected it could go for some equipment or services, or
starting projects to enhance 44net, that are for everyones good, but no,
it goes to private pockets.
I must say trust is seriously breached.
