There are different types of two factor so it depends. If you've got a keylogger using your email address might not be a good idea.

Yeah mobile verification is pretty safe. Gaining access to your phone is much harder than email.

That's why I like to use blockchain.info for the mobile verifivcation.

and if they successfully installed the key logger and got al
ble to know your email address hthen they can steal your couns even though you have a 2FA
First I want to say it feels like you are drunk with all those typos in your post and second I would like to say that it depends what kind of 2FA you are using if it is email address than it is worthless in many cases..! because than you are not only giving away Password on one particular service but giving away details of your email acc/ too
