The intersection of IPv6, blockchain and IoT

Despite the clear advantages of IPv6 over IPv4, adoption has been slow, primarily due to the significant infrastructure changes required to support the new protocol.

While blockchain, IPv6, and the Internet of Things (IoT) can be used independently to change the way we interact with the digital world, there are significant benefits to using them together.

While many people still consider IPv6 as an up-and-coming technology, it is already being used across the world by billions of people. Most advanced countries today now have over 50% of Internet traffic going over IPv6, and in the United States 95% or more of wireless carriers already support the protocol, says Lawrence Hughes, Senior Software Engineer of Cybersecurity at Abbott.

Why the move to IPv6 is about empowerment
