📲 SMS code vs app: which is more secure?
2FA via SMS is better than nothing, but it has a weak spot — SIM swap. A scammer reissues your SIM card and intercepts the codes. This is how entire accounts get drained.
✅ Upgrade your security:
use an authenticator app (TOTP) or, even better, a hardware key. Codes live on the device, not in the ether.
🔑 And keep backup codes offline — without them, losing your phone can lock you out.
Protecting access to $ETH and your exchange? Start replacing SMS with an authenticator today.
Not financial advice (NFA), make your own decisions and do your own research (DYOR).
