I know some of us here is having issues on their bitcointalk account being hacked. I just want to know if many will agreed to have 2fa Authentication on our bitcointalk account to protect it from hacking specially those who have high ranks. I hope Bitcointalk.org team will plan to put 2fa Authentication on our accounts. Thanks 😊😊😊

^^ This has been talked several times and I thinking in this current system we will not have it however may be in the new forum software we may have something to keep our accounts more secure. Alternatively, you can stake one of your bitcoin address with a sign message just in case of any compromised case you can prove the you are the original account holder.

There is no announcement or requirement in what bitcoin wallet you need to use to signed message. You can use any bitcoin wallet that is safe and secured. Just search which best bitcoin wallet to use for storing your bitcoin and sign message it. You can visit this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1631151.0 on what type of bitcoin wallet is best to use and sign message and this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=990345.0 on how to sign message your bitcoin address .

There’s a small recap of threads that have versed on 2FA on the forum in this thread: List of Answered Suggestions. Please don't create topics before read them all!. I asked the same question a couple of months after joining, surprised that it was not available as an optional feature. There’s also this: <…> @theymos, couldn't a lot of this be avoided if we had a 2FA system in place? I know you don't want to use the google system, and I don't blame you, but what about a decentralized system like using a PGP public key to generate single-use passwords, and send PGP encrypted password recovery links to the registered email?
I know we've discussed this numerous times, and it's always been shutdown. Forgive me if I'm beating a dead horse, but I think I would rather live the downsides of a 2FA system opposed to the downsides of farming out account recovery.
That wouldn't eliminate the need for manual recoveries; it might even increase it as people lose their second factor. 2FA would be nice, but IMO the email notifications provide many of the same benefits, so it's not high on my to-do list.

2fa is not the only option to secure your BTCtalk account staking BTC address is enough to protect your account or if your account was hacked you can make a signed message of old stake address to recover your account back. Since you are newbie better start posting your BTC address in this thread here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996318.0 and request to someone to quote it for future referrence.

As we are not dealing with money on bitcointalk, it shouldn't be required. Staked bitcoin address or other addresses could be used in case of an account hack. It is a long process though.
Although I'll suggest freezing the email id, it will surely decrease the work of admin/moderators. Making the email change process chargeable after verifying the staked address is what I suggest.

2FA is difficult to implement with the version of SMF the forum is using, and it is unlikely to be implemented until the new forum goes live.

Many people are waiting for 2FA to be implemented here for many years already. But it won't be added before new forum software will be fully released. Despite this, there is still some methods how to protect your Bitcointalk account. Starting from basic things like using strong and unique password. And finishing with things like staking your Bitcoin address with a signed message and using 2FA on your email account.

2fa is not going to be implemented on the forum, but you can use 2fa on the external sites that link to bitcointalk if you want extra security, such as your email address (if it permits it). If you observe the basic security measures and avoid logging in on external devices and clicking on phishing links, your account shod be fine. Don't expose your email address on your profile as well.

I'm confident it's definitely optional. No sites I've been on that strictly enforce 2FA unless you're working with those P&C stuffs (banking, tech, nuclear)

I hope 2FA will add on the security feature. I personally don't own a single Bitcoin address, I usually create new BTC wallet address for every transaction that I will made. I have trezor to store my personal BTC but never used that address for public transaction to protect my asset since I don't want someone snooping on my assets. With that reason, I'm having trouble to have a singe wallet address to used for staking in this forum. This 2FA security is discussed many times but still no clear answer from the administration.

2FA may not be possible with the current forum software but there has to be some security. For people using Exchanges as their BTC wallet or even the people who had created their accounts in Blockchain wallet recently do not have the option to stake their wallets. What if a user loses access to his staked wallet? In the future 2FA can be an option but does not need to be forced.

You can manage without 2FA if you are using an uncompromised email and both your email password and forum password are securely managed by a 2FA-backed up password manager. I don't think there is any reasonable way for 2FA to be implemented while we are on SMF.

I have found a post by hilariousandco about the 2fa Authentication of bitcointalk.org in 2015. Here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1100415.msg11713916#msg11713916see this screenshot if you have not time to visit the link. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2FsgPK36Y1%2Fchrome-aw-R6-JHWUr-O.png&t=665&c=md9HlLNBym2eyw) Where he said " It's coming with the new forum" about a more new feature as well as 2fa authenticator too. But that might not have been possible.
