I imagine it accounts mostly for Africa and South Asia since they didn't get many IPv4 addresses. They got less addresses than Europe and they're at least 4 times more populated.
So I don't think we're gonna see adoption in Western countries that soon.
Here's an IPv4 map for comparison:

- ac29 9y agoNope, the highest rates of adoption are in North America and Europe: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#20&tab=per-country-ipv6-adoption&tab=per-country-ipv6-adoption https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#20&tab=p... India, Japan, Brazil, and Australia also rank relatively high. Keep in mind some of the largest US ISPs (like Comcast) are offering native dual stack now by default. You'd have to go out of your way to disable it. Edit: Cell phone carriers are a big driver of this as well, both Tmobile and Verizon are majority IPv6 according to [0].

- cbhl 9y agoA big part of that is how quickly people upgrade their cell phones -- on T-mo at least, a device had to support IPv6 and 464XLAT in order to connect to the LTE network.
- jvannistelrooy 9y agoYou could have just looked at the other tap of OP's link to see that IPv6 adoption is highest in the US, and then in Europe. https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#20&tab=per-country-ipv6-adoption&tab=per-country-ipv6-adoption https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#20&tab=p...
