is using 2fa safe in every way

[Gayong88]

No, it's not safe. There is always a risk if the transaction is wrongly addressed. However, if the phone is damaged or we can get it back by saving the FA2Code, you can always set it up again in our wallet.

It seems like hackers are trying to steal and collect your digital money from your wallet by being hacked, especially if we connect Metamask and it turns out that the website token is a scam, our Metamask funds can be siphoned off like a dusting attack in my opinion.

Yeah for sure 2FA is safe in every way. it's secure your wallet by adding one extra step to logging into your Wallet/Account. 2FA is actually adding an extra layer of security to your Account/Wallet.
For the following Reason, 2FA is best for everyone
* Adding an additional layer of security to Account/Wallet
* Blocking hacker attacks automatically
* Secure your Account/Wallet rather than somebody knowing your password
After my studies at google, I discover that some new studies say that 2FA is not safe and
are being hacked and not using an intervention from the user. The assault is known as "man-in-the-center" but am not sure about it is the truth or lie.

The cryptocurrency business is like Banking industries, as we see in our local environment, which every taller service customer care or cashier have it OTP, (One Time Password), for enable them to login into the given platform and also carried out transaction from one point to another. Having said that, it also applicable to a crypto wallet, which we have many wallet to store our Digital Asset, which you did not mention the platform your operating to store your asset. Therefore is very good to add and additional security on your wallet by Applying 2FA and PIN for a security purpose.

today I experienced an unexpected transaction from one of my wallets, all my assets were sold automatically, this is the first time I've experienced this, I didn't protect this wallet with a PIN and 2fa
can it be delayed after I use 2fa and PIN for all transactions?

I guess that transaction is already gone but it is important to always have a 2fa enabled in all your wallets apart from your pin too. There is not too much protection with your crypto assets. Regardless of whichever wallet it is, whether exchange wallets or other non-custodial wallets which are even regarded to be safer still I think we still need to have different levels of protection.

It looks like the victim of  "man-in-the-middle" accidentally clicks a phishing site that looks like a mirrored image of the target site.  That way the user sends information to the phishers database then the phisher sends the data to the target website.  So it is basically the owner sending information of his account to the phisher.  Not the 2fa being hacked.  No matter what the security in this scenario is, it will not prevent the phisher from logging into his account when the owner tries to log into his account.


Anything that adds a layer of security delays a hacker from breaking into our accounts. Email verification, 2fa, and mobile verification can increase the security of our accounts.  Combining them can synergize the effect.

You should use 2FA with pin for transactions for full safety in your wallet. For using 2FA you should use extra phone by use 2fa aps. Although if you have completely all process then hacker can't hack your wallet. Even one plus point you need to avoid all fake message from your gamil account and never click any link.

No security system is 100% perfect, there will always be loopholes to steal, hackers always think 3 steps ahead, this is what makes many companies pay dearly for security systems, and of course developments will continue to occur so the idea of ​​using retina eyes is a solution for a better security system.

Nothing is 100% safe, but to protect our assets we should use the best asset protection methods and 2FA is considered the most effective solution today.

I also usually enable security features if it is available like 2fa, email, sms even prevent login from strange IP. This cannot guarantee 100% that my account will be completely safe but if hackers attack and try to take control of my account, they will take quite a while and I can react in time.

Yes, 2FA still has an exploit in which victims with 2FA devices got compromised and exported their master key to the other or hacker in this case. This requires getting victim's device hooked and compromised which is very hard but still not 100% impossible, especially if the victim is careless.

2fa with mobile phone confirmation or email login code is the safest way for me. You can use 2fa alone but that leaves a lot of room to improve the security of your account. By pairing 2fa with an email login code or mobile phone login code, you'll have more leech way.

[CapGelatik]

yes of course it is very safe, if the exchange platform requires using 2FA then use it,
because indeed 2FA will make your account and funds safe there,
we know the biggest enemy of the crypto world is only 1, namely hacker attacks, and 2FA will protect you, I'm sure that

[kelonmusk]

It is very important that all access that we consider important has security using 2fa because by using this system the possibility of our assets being stolen is very small so we will feel safe and calm when storing many assets on the platform. And seeing your case that you have lost tokens because the transaction has been carried out, you can only sincerely do it.

The question is what app that you have been used to store your money? If your 2 FA didn't work and i do believe if there would be something wrong with you or your app and if you didn't mention what kind of wallet or app that already used. You can try to enable 2FA verification and any withdrawal that will be  happening in your wallet will require 2fa to be able to take it from your wallet. This is adding second security layer to your wallet but it's better if you can encrypt it as well. This is increasing the security of your wallet. Im always using 2 fa for every wallet or assets to make it even safer.

I use a lobstr wallet, I activated 2fa, but maybe  it's true that you said something was wrong when I activated it, most likely the intruder had entered before I installed 2 fa
