I don't believe that telcos/ISPs will suddenly switch everything to IPv6 and
drop IPv4 cold turkey. I would assume that there are still unused IPv4
addresses in the "reserves" of telcos, ISPs, and hosting providers, and that
prices for these addresses would skyrocket in the short term.
But if you have an Internet server, IPv6 capability just became a necessity.
