I'm of the opinion that IPv6 is old enough that the fact we have not hopped to it yet means its not happening anytime soon. I wanted it back in 2008 when I first learned about it, and I know its older than that (90s iirc) so its either going to come one day "abruptly" by force and break half the internet, or people will do hacks to maintain IPv4 as is.

I think the only way IPv6 will ever become mainstream is if either the EU or US Congress pass a bill making it the preferred IP standard.
