    At BYDFi, we highly recommend securing your new phone for cryptocurrency transactions with an authenticator code. This additional layer of security helps protect your funds from unauthorized access. To set it up, you can download an authenticator app like Google Authenticator or Authy from your phone's app store. Once installed, follow the app's instructions to link your cryptocurrency accounts to it. This will enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for your accounts, requiring you to enter a unique code generated by the app in addition to your password. By doing so, you significantly reduce the risk of someone gaining unauthorized access to your funds. Remember to enable this feature for all your cryptocurrency accounts to ensure maximum security.
