Well that is kind of the the point of multi-factor authentication.

* Something you know (your username/password).

* Something you have. The Yubikey or other hardware token.

If you lose your Yubikey, by itself it should not allow access to anything. I keep mine on my keyring with my keys, which I haven't lost yet.

I want to get some sort of retractable lead for mine. My keys are heavy-ish and sometimes it can be difficult to get the key in a usb port without tension.

When I had more keys on my keyring I used something like this https://www.amazon.com/Lucky-Line-Keychain-Nickel-Plated-707... (not this particular one, which is just the top result that looked similar). It worked pretty well for a single key, but if you want to use more than one it adds a lot of extra bulk so your keychain gets even bigger.

I also tried something like this https://www.amazon.com/Spider-Accessory-Split-Rings-Pack/dp/.... It worked pretty well for a few weeks, but then the central piece loosened up and the keys started falling off in my pocket; not recommended unless you can find one that's really sturdy.

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that I ended up getting a 5-pack of the detachable keyring and, so far, it is working great with my yubikey.

Thanks! I may try the first one.
