Very sad. FYI, we're going to launch a Kickstarter for Solo, an open source FIDO2 security key (https://solokeys.com https://solokeys.com), and we're planning to offer free shipping in both US and EU. I'm an Italian living in the US, and I personally care a lot about this aspect. It's incredibly sad to see that companies with unlimited resources still completely ignore non-US markets.

If it's usb-a, nfc & bluetooth for under $50, I'll take 2.

  Usb-a (or -c), and NFC will be available. Price for NFC should be around $30-35, to be confirmed. Plus various Kickstarter discount. We won't have bluetooth, at least in the first iteration. The chip we chose is pin-compatible with another one with BLE, so it's not excluded in the future. Honestly, I really hope Apple will announce a more open NFC next week.

    I'll take one! USB & NFC is what really seals it for me, Bluetooth is icing.

Why your product and not Ubikey?
- ecesena 8y ago
  We want to provide an open source alternative (hardware & firmware). As others mentioned, note that there's a difference between the new Yubikey Security Key (FIDO2 only) and previous Yubikeys, that do multiple things, including pgp/ssh support. By being open, eventually we think that Solo can also support these features, and maybe more. But to start, we want to focus on FIDO2 (and U2F, because FIDO2 is backward compatible).
