it holds a private encryption key which can be used to decrypt messages or files, or to prove that a certain message really was written by you, or to authenticate yourself on software that has support for it. the niceness is that it can be carried around securely, and not all is lost when you stick it in a compromised computer.

Yeah! I use a customized algorithm that first XOR's each byte with the following byte, groups then into blocks of 4 bytes, performs 32 logical right shifts on each block, performs another XOR from end to start, and finally deduplicates the output.
