Well, eLicenser's days are numbered since Steinberg and VSL are leaving it behind.

There is a USB-C version of iLok. Otherwise, yeah, a hub. I use a 4-port USB hub with a USB-C connector, and it works great. I keep my iLok, eLicenser, and CodeMeter dongle in it.

That’s now I do it on my M1 mini. I just use an anker hub. Works great.
