Yes, I intend to do this with the subkeys (Curve25519) Only the primary (certification key) would use ed448 which would rarely be used and only offline. > Think of your threat model and, as usual, see https://www.xkcd.com/538/ Agreed :-) In this situation, I just want to avoid creating a new key-pair as long as possible and ed448 is likely to survive just a bit longer from what I understand.
