Please support IPv6.

The problem is the torrent trackers only support ipv4 addresses, so need to find an alternative solution to store ipv6 (and tor) addresses.

I'm currently only using v4, but it looks like there is a BitTornado option to support v6

I am working on something to make this easier: #520. Please check it out. Also, dumping BitTorrent trackers would be great in so many ways.

It's not on short-term plans yet. (next 6 month)

IAB Statement on IPv6 (7 November 2016):

We recommend that existing standards be reviewed to ensure they will work with IPv6, and use IPv6 examples.

Another vote for IPv6 support. Reason: using ZeroNet on top of cjdns/Hyperboria which is an IPv6-only transport layer.

+1 for IPv6 support.. main reason is for CJDNS support.

I'm also interested in IPV6 support, to let ZeroNet run on cjdns/hyperboria. I might take a crack at it a bit later, but I honestly have no idea how involved it'd be. I'd personally be up for no trackers and just having bootstrap nodes/peer exchange if the issue is that trackers aren't ipv6. IIRC, as it stands zeronet can work even if you remove the trackers from the code, because it stores peer info. So it shouldn't be too difficult to migrate.
