I am using a stand alone version (7.9.4) on an IMAC. Should I upgrade to Version 8? Will it work as a stand alone version?

I already have a 1Password family membership, and it is plenty inexpensive as it is. So yeah, I am all for this model of payment, it is great, and a superb value! However, some data I have secured in 1Password, I do not want stored on any server, anywhere, so I absolutely will not abandon standalone vaults. EVER. As far as your security of vaults goes, I have a comment on that, where you say that it can't be cracked using current technology. That may be true today, but given enough time, if someone somehow gets a hold of my encrypted vault, they will eventually be able to crack it. It may take a few years, maybe even 10 years or so, before they could crack this vault, but eventually, they would be able to. So, I would not ever want to store my most sensitive data via this method. And btw, I guarantee my own password is much stronger than what most people use. No idea how to figure out how many "bits of entropy" it has, but it would be quite difficult to crack. Maybe I'm paranoid, idk, but I will never be ok with having all my data that's currently in 1Password stored on any online server, no matter how strong the encryption is.
