Why not redesign the thing to be able, using the same main body, to change between with USB-A/ USB-C connectors that already have both NFC/ Bluetooth integrated on them with switches to turn on/ off both of them individually (preventing radio attacks when off). New connector standard? Problems or better/ new NFC/ Bluetooth specifications? Can't upgrade the firmware of the adapter, just buy a new adapter and keep using the main body.
