There are 2^128 possible addresses, each weighing in at 128 bits, 16 bytes. 16 bytes times 340 trillion trillion trillion. That puts us around 5.44 trillion Zettabytes. The estimates I've seen for worldwide data storage sit aroun 60-70 zettabytes. permalink fedilink source parent [–] dan@upvote.au 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) IPv6 version is just a Python script that generates random 128-bit integers.
