I hope te EdDSA curve 25519 support in YubiHSM2 means we'll see the curve also in Yubikeys (e.g. OpenPGP applet). Currently Yubico's OpenPGP supports only RSA but there are already tokens supporting this modern crypto [0].

> there are already tokens supporting this modern crypto

I looked briefly but can anyone link to where to buy one? Thanks in advance (either way: "buy" link or no) for the info.

Errr, I was referring to Gnuk [0] that claims support, but it's rather a DIY project [1] than something to be mass manufactured. Sorry to disappoint you but from my shallow research in this matter the hardware used has several flaws (e.g. no secure element).
