So what will you do about an instance called “rofl.lol”, which is huge, which has a lot of fans locally who want to keep interacting with it and which also allows spammers? Will you keep federating or will you defederate it?
If you don’t defederate this will become and endless whack-a-mole of bans with a drop of quality.
Do you have any source for this marketplace of instances?

I never talked about a marketplace of instances.
I used the term colloquially. I just mean any evidence of instances being sold or even being a driving force in creating one.
I don’t understand your rebuttal to the other point though. How does being a “club” not actively have the same decision to make?
Admins can defederate it if they want.
You asking this makes me wonder if I even interpret what you’re saying correctly now as your question doesn’t fit anymore.
What do you mean by make it more like a club if not just setting up your instance as invite-only?
Defederate it if you want. My instance doesn’t appear to federate with it (it doesn’t show up in the directory at least).
