RE: Totally New to Cryptocurrencies? Here Are The Top 5 Things You Should Do.
2FA that uses SMS or voice calls proved to be vulnerable in many occasions, recently one of the crypto currency youtubers announced his wallet got hacked and lost 110 BTC.
he claimed hackers simply called the phone company and asked for an additional SIM card, then proceeded to request a 2FA reset and the rest and the rest of story...
Yes avoid those. Most telecom providers now only accept thumbprints where I'm from so it's pretty safe in that sense. Or call the telco company to port lock.
Great Post, Kevin
So does AUTHY use SMS or voice calls? I have been trying to decide whether to use that one or google authenticator.
I use google authenticator, pretty safe from my end
