Using Authy for 2FA? Update Settings to Avoid Hackers

Ive said many times - everything you put on exchanges you risk losing everything if exchange dies, scams or gets hacked. But in the mix of bad events the exchange can be fine but you can be hacked as an user.

Ie like it was on Binance lately, the exchange was fine just loads of users got phished.

To avoid that you should use 2FA and there are 2 most popular options Google Authenticator and Authy.

Currently, there is a way for hackers to take over your Authy with one of its options. Luckily easy to fix.

Settings -> Devices -> TURN OFF "Allow Multi-device".

Its suggested to backup your 2FAs and not use SMS ones.

Stay safe!
