I look at the publicly reported measurements from content publishers like Akamai:

http://www.akamai.com/ipv6

Google:

https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#tab=ipv6-adoption

Cloudflare:

https://blog.cloudflare.com/four-years-later-and-cloudflare-is-still-doing-ipv6-automatically/

and see fairly steep curves that I would not enjoy cycling up. And when I look at the trend graphs for the top 10 networks reporting via http://www.worldipv6launch.org/measurements/ I see something very similar.

That's clearly not the whole story but it's certainly not all doom and gloom.
