My ISPs lack of support for IPv6 got me into BGP.

I now run my own ASN, rent a server with a BGP session that’s pretty close to my home (~50km/2ms), and tunnel v6 over that.

I have a /32 of v6. That’s 2^96 individual addresses. Or 65k /48s.

It was a great learning experience actually and is within the reach of anyone. You can get a BGP enabled VPS for $5/month, and ASN and a /40 for $50/lifetime.
