I think that the real question is, when will people who are running IPv4 only not be on the Internet by this definition ?
is there an online betting mechanism we could use, that we all think will still be in business decades from now when the truth is known? if we're going to start picking the month and year when IPv4 is the new "PDP-11 compatibility mode" (that's a VAX reference), where the winner is whoever comes closest without going over, my pick is July 2021, and i'm in for $50.
You could probably interest the University of Iowa College of Business in it. See: <http://tippie.uiowa.edu/iem/index.cfm> The genesis of of this project was a 'futures' exchange on candidates for the office of President of the United States. It's had an amazing track- record of identifying 'winners' there.
