The project is a nearly decade-old specification that has failed to gain significant traction, evidenced by its low star count (17) and lack of recent activity (0.0 velocity). While it addresses a legitimate technical challenge—connecting smart card logic to modern mobile devices via BLE—it has been largely bypassed by proprietary implementations from hardware security leaders (like Ledger and Yubico) or official industry standards from the Bluetooth SIG and ISO. As a 3593-day-old project with minimal forks, it lacks the community momentum or 'data gravity' required for a higher defensibility score. Furthermore, platform owners like Apple and Google have high domination risk here, as they define the low-level BLE frameworks and security policies for their respective ecosystems, often introducing their own transport layers for digital keys and identity documents that render third-party specs like this one obsolete.
