China's IPv6 adoption takes a decent leap forward
Briefly

China reported 834 million active IPv6 users by June 2025, making up 75.29 percent of netizens. However, IPv6 traffic only accounted for 31.12 percent of overall national network traffic. Mobile networks showed a higher uptake with 66 percent of traffic using IPv6, while 28.32 percent of fixed networks used the protocol, representing an increase from last year's 21.21 percent. Atlassian announced job cuts affecting 150 staff, primarily in customer service, due to improvements in their support systems, although these roles were not replaced by AI.
