Hi guys, Today I’ve received the “Thanks for you support in 2013” letter there you said you reached 900k droplets and 150k IPs. I am just curious how that is possible. Is not each droplet connected to its own IP address?

Perhaps when someone destroys a droplet, they do not subtract it from the 900k (running) total. Yet, if a person created a new droplet right away, they’d get the same IP address.
