This reflects the shift of traffic to mobile.

Everyone using Verizon Wireless with an IPv6 capable device is using IPv6. It's behind some sort of carrier grade proxy, but is IPv6.

Also, if you are using T-mobile, you can use IPv6-only, and they have a few million subscribers.

I got a T-mobile SIM when I was in the US last month, and switched to IPv6-only APN. Worked pretty well for the casual browsing - and the non-IPv6 websites were still reachable using NAT64 on T-mobile's side. Though the possibility to do IPv6-only might depend on your handset.

Indeed. You can test it on Verizon by doing a Google search for: ip

It should give you your mobile's IPv6 address.
