> Something that makes the key unique is the fact that both its software and hardware are open source
Aren't SoloKeys [1] also open hardware and software? Or is the Tillitis key more general purpose and thus not in the same category?

TOTP, FIDO2, PIV, simple touch triggered challenge/response... or something completely different. If it can fit in around 100 kByte RAM when compiled for RV32IMC and not be too computationally expensive, it could be a Tillitis app.
Just to give you some indication, the Ed25519 signer operation in the SSH authentication we showed on stage today takes ~ one second to perform the signing. And we have several ways to improve that we know already.
Personally I'm very excited to see what applications will be developed at the hackathon at the OSFC conference, and onwards. We have had people at the conference showing interest in trying to write applications in Rust. I will try and implement an application of my own tomorrow.
If you want to power your key via NFC (tap to phone to authenticate), you need a micro which consumes very little, powers up quickly and can do a signature before the FIDO protocol times out. I'm not sure this is currently possible with a FPGA, but maybe it is.
