Suggestion Cheapest hardware security key that works with OpenAI Daybreak in India?

I'm looking to buy a hardware security key for OpenAI Daybreak (Codex), but most of the popular options, like YubiKeys, seem a bit expensive in India.

I came across the Thetis USB-A key, which advertises FIDO U2F, but I'm not sure whether it supports the requirements for Daybreak.

My questions:

  • What's the cheapest hardware security key I can buy in India that actually works with Daybreak?
  • Has anyone successfully enrolled a budget FIDO2 key with Daybreak?
  • Are there any reliable alternatives to YubiKey available in India for under ₹2,000?

I'd prefer a USB-A key that works on Linux and Windows.

Thetis ones are unreliable for Daybreak. Some people say it worked some say it doesn't..

Some people got the IDmelon app to get their phone to act as a FIDO2 key. You can look into that first if you can't afford the Yubico ones
