For reverse resolution, the IETF reserved the domain ip6.arpa, where the name space is hierarchically divided by the 1-digit hexadecimal representation of nibble units (4 bits) of the IPv6 address.
IPv6 domain readiness tester
ip6.nlIPv6 is version 6 of the new Internet Protocol. Every networked device and every internet application will need to support this. For now, most of the internet is dual stacked: version 4 and 6 are used side-by-side and websites and other internet services that are not yet IPv6 ready continue to function properly for the vast majority of users.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6In the Domain Name System (DNS), hostnames are mapped to IPv6 addresses by AAAA ("quad-A") resource records. For reverse resolution, the IETF reserved the domain ip6.arpa, where the name space is hierarchically divided by the 1-digit hexadecimal representation of nibble units (4 bits) of the IPv6 address. This scheme is defined in RFC 3596. When a dual-stack host queries a DNS server to resolve a fully qualified domain name(FQDN), th…

en.wikipedia.org › wiki › IPv6_deploymentIn November 2016, 1,491 (98.2%) of the 1,519 top-level domains (TLDs) in the Internet supported IPv6 to access their domain name servers, and 1,485 (97.8%) zones contained IPv6 glue records, and approximately 9.0 million domains (4.6%) had IPv6 address records in their zones. Of all networks in the global BGP routing table, 29.2% had IPv6 ...
IPv6 address - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_addressIn the Domain Name System, hostnames are mapped to IPv6 addresses by AAAA resource records, so-called quad-A records. For reverse lookup the IETF reserved the domain ip6.arpa, where the name space is hierarchically divided by the 1-digit hexadecimal representation of nibble units (4 bits) of the IPv6 address. As in IPv4, each host is represented in the DNS by two DNS records: an address record and a rev…
