What threatens hosting sites with IPv6 hosting?

Hello!

I want to rent a VPS to host my sites and the sites of my clients (I'm a designer), but a question arose with the choice of hosting: some offer IPv4 for 50-80 rubles apiece, others give a subnet /64 IPv6 addresses for free ...

What is the practical difference? How relevant is the issue of unavailability of resources when hosted on ipv6?

for now, ipv6 can only be considered as additional addresses. That's when providers begin to massively distribute ipv6 to clients - then it will be in demand for you.
In the meantime - give - take it;) but you don’t need to take only ipv6

It threatens that about 0.5% of computers in Russia (user) have an ipv6 address (most of them are all kinds of tunnels). For the most part, these are geek computers.
Without an ipv6 address, you cannot get to an ipv6-only resource. Moreover, the global ipv6 network does not yet have very good connectivity, so even having a valid ipv6 address does not guarantee anything =)

ipv6 - for today practically not working. Few people support it and there is very little equipment that can understand what v6 is. If you can access the server using this ip, then most users do not have such equipment that understands ipv6

It does not threaten anything, but you need to have a duplicate IPv4.

your site will be able to serve more clients as part of the clients will connect via ipv6
