I want to my own so called wallet and looking at options of hardware incorporation:

  1. TPM2: not feasible since does not handle P256K1 (only P256R1).
  2. Hardware crypto wallets (from companies like Ledger): in my opinion worst inventions done during past 20 years. We need open and application agnostic keystore backends, not pollution like these.
  3. FIDO2: Yubikey very compelling collection of crypto algorithms and ECC curves, including popular ones for blockchains.

So the choice is somewhat obvious based on this quick feasibility study: I want a FIDO2 wallet.

The next issue. I found this really nice FIDO2 wallet in C++: https://github.com/hoytech/defido2

My next question would be tho does anyone know is the choice of implementation language in this driven by “passion” or something actually preventing to do this using W3C API’s for FIDO2?

Does W3C API e.g. block some ECC curve types that my Yubikey might support?
