forever. - or until you clarify your terms.
all addresses, regardless of origin, are inherently "fully routable
worldwide" ... but to instansiate this as a fact requires one of
two things:
) you run -all- the routing infrastrucuture, "worldwide"
or
) every entity that runs BGP or an IGP agrees to transit
your /24 to everyplace they have a path to.
neither is likely - imho, so you -must- mean something else.
