This is a hypothetical scenario. Lets say if I have a keypair. The master key is set to SC (signing and certification) which are the default settings. The master key pair is only used on airgap with safe data transfer between airgap and network connected computer. Is it safe and possible to use the

Using the OpenPGP Smartcard V2.1 used to store 4096 key. Then was used to store 3072 length key for short time. Problem is that I am unable to use it for 4096 keys anymore. How to reset card so I can use it again for 4096 key? Thank you -- Cannon PGP Fingerprint: 2BB5 15CD 66E7 4E28 45DC 6494

Moving from RSA to Ed25519

Hi, I was thinking about moving from rsa4096 to ed25519. I really do not want to lose all the signatures on my key. What I could do is add the ed25519 signature and encryption keys to my existing rsa key as subkeys, but I guess this will not improve security because my RSA signature key could
