    Whenever there is an option for Two Factor Authentication (2FA), you should use it!!

      Absolutely right. Steemit will be a huge target for scammers and thieves. Especially when news breaks to the mainstream of newly wealthy but less tech savvy bloggers.

        I can't believe Kraken got hacked. 2FA is always a must when it involves the crypto realm. https://steemit.com/steemit/@domavila/two-factor-authentication-and-why-we-need-it-now
