> Even in developed countries IPv6 is barely deployed

For reference, the list of currently leading and trailing countries by IPv6 adoption (from Akamai's August 2017 numbers):

Belgium 46%, US 40%, India 36%, Greece 32%, Germany 25%, Switzerland 20%, Finland 20%, Brazil 19%, Canada 18%, Norway 16%, Japan 15%

Portugal 13%, UK 12%, France 12%, Australia 8%, New Zealand 8%, Sweden 8%, Netherlands 7%, Mexico 5%

Israel 3%, South Korea 2%, Ireland 1%, Denmark 1%, Russia 1%, Spain 0.7%, Italy 0.5%, China 0.3%, Colombia 0.1%

The way some of these nations are lagging is bizarre.

It doesn't help the UK that one of the largest ISP's, Virgin Media (the only cable supplier) don't yet support IPv6. They're talking about going with DS-Lite, which carries its own problems.

Once they go live, expect to see the UK climb significantly.

> Italy 0.5%

Yet Italy was home to Tinet, part of Tiscali and the largest IPv6 network of the world until 2009.

More saddening than bizarre.
