According to recent statistics by Google, Switzerland has achieved the top for IPv6 adoption, passing Romania which topped the charts for nearly a year.

Jo Best reporting in ZDNet: IPv6 adoption stands at 10.11 percent in Switzerland—the highest penetration of any country, according to stats from Google, which takes a snapshot of adoption by measuring the proportion of users that access Google services over IPv6… It’s been suggested that the sudden spike in Switzerland’s IPv6 adoption has been down to Swisscom, the country’s biggest telco with around 55 percent of the broadband market and 60 percent of mobile, moving to adopt it.
