2FA on bitcoin talk

[ItsEzMkay]

seems like a must have feature. I keep seeing all this account hacking in the Meta section. This will prevent that!

So this never got implemented?

It seems administrators aren't interested in that solution.
How long this forum will still at stone age?
That's a good question

Checking this thread in 2018, can't believe we still don't have something like 2FA.  The thought of legendary member and project team accounts being hacked makes me cringe a little.  Hopefully we'll see 2FA implemented sometime soon.

Bumping this thread in hope that some forum moderators see this. I expect answer why this has not been done yet. Addition of 2FA shouldn't cost too much so where is the problem?

Even without 2FA it is highly secure. Quite often users from newbie accounts create thread stating that their account got hacked. This issue is not much of the security concern or the 2FA into implementation. This happens most of the time due to the careless of the respective user of the particular account.

bitcointalk really needs 2FA...my account was just hacked by someone in Turkey, they gained access to both my bitcointalk/email and effectively changed the email on file on the account/password thus locking me out completely. I've messaged Cyprus about recovering my account but for users that did not have a bitcoin address set up or had PGP key in place, they are SOL. very frustrating as i've had the account since 2014 and I have no way of recovering it.

I don't really see what the benefits really are with the extra security of 2FA.

No one is going to lose any money if there account is hacked or password is lost.

Many people make money here on BitcoinTalk by participating in Signature Programs. Practically losing an account means losing money.
