Phone completely dead, you’ve got an exchange account with numerous internal wallets/coins. Your exchange account is linked to a DeFi account , both exchange & DeFi are protected/linked to 2FA. You’ve also got several other wallets/coins. You have your SEED phrases so should be able to resurrect your various wallets but do you need more than seeds? Will the SIM card work in a new phone or will that be dead also? Can you get into your exchange without the 2FA, do you need to set up same 2FA or can you recover everything from Cloud?

Mentions:#FA#SEED#SIM
r/CryptoCurrencySee Comment

It goes to show that, although OP likely did compromise his seed phrase somewhere, you really do have to be tech savvy and very aware of a lot of topics to not get really screwed over by this. Using a large exchange + 2FA is such a better option for non-tech savvy people. Combined with staking or some minimal withdrawal time makes it near impossible for you to lose your funds to a personal hack, and it probably won't be long now until exchanges have some more formal sort of insurance covering all their assets. Hopefully OP can discover what happened here to help make everyone else more aware.

Totally agree. Crypto will NEVER get mainstream adoption if people have to jump through hoopes and verify PGP signatures. No way, it will just not happen. Exchanges with hardware based 2FA and whitelisting are perfectly safe for this, and orders of magnitude easier for the average user. The NYKNYC FDU is overblown, IMHO.

Mentions:#FA

No idea how easy/hard it is to implement. But would it add any real level of safety? For example: I can imagine people keeping their seedphrase on their computer or "handing out" their phrase would also be an easy target with 2FA (think keeping the QR-import as a screenshot). People who have their phrase offline would likely do so with their import as well. Not implying it's less secure, just having a brainfart.

The exchange gives it to you when you register and setup your 2FA authentication so that if you lose your device, you can setup your 2FA authentication again in another device. It is important to save the key because the exchange will never show it to you ever again.

For amounts under 1 M $ I would use exchanges. I know not your keys not your money but we are not in 2015, exchanges are more secure and the big ones have hack insurances, your money are safe even if hacked.

Sir this is /CC, people only read these sort of posts after getting scammed! Jokes aside, stay safe fellow crypto members. 2FA on exchanges, never use email or sms as 2FA.

You are overthinking it. All you need is a password manager (this will also save you from phishing attacks as it auto completes), enable software 2FA on all accounts including your email, protect your phone and computer sign in with password/biometrics, enable full disk encryption on you computer. Other than that you need to develop an understanding and an eye for scams how they work and how to navigate the space. Getting instructions do this and do that won’t cut as it is an arms race with scammers. You just have to understand how it all works. If you are new to this I would suggest to skip self custody and just leave everything in a top 5 exchange.

Yes, that is a bad idea. Anyone with access to the backup codes for your 2FA can use that (along with your user/pass) to login as you. You can login to the exchange and reset your 2FA and it will give you a new set of backup codes.

Never use the same browser for anything crypto as for web browsing. Try to avoid any browser-based wallets (when possible, it's not always so). And in general avoid Chrome if possible. If possible, use two different computers. One for crypto transactions online. Permanently shut off. Only on when you need to do something. Only used for transacting crypto, nothing else. No other apps, tight security. Same for 2FA, use a dedicated phone, or hardware device, for 2FA. Not your actual phone. Also, and this is important, NEVER EVER download any crypto apps from google play / app store under your account. When your account there gets hacked (that is very common), hackers will know you are into crypto. Setup a throwaway account under which you download crypto apps, if you must use such, on the dedicated crypto phone, which again like crypto PC, is shut off unless you need to use it for 2FA or what not.

Adding on, Coinbase offers a vault option which is pretty cool. If someone bypasses your passwords and 2FA, anything stored in a vault requires verification from 2 separate emails then a 2-day waiting period before any funds are transferred back to a wallet. If someone chooses to store on the exchange, this is probably the most secure way of going about it.

Ah yes that's a fair point on deciding on purchasing now when there's a dip for a smaller amount, versus doing a bigger lump sum when the price could be higher but you pay less in fees. Just do the math to figure that out. Interesting you say most people aren't concerned about leaving a few grand on the exchanges for a few months considering I read so many comments from people saying to take your coins off the exchange. My friend lost some amount of BTC (less than 1k worth) on BitBuy by keeping his coins there. Even though I have unique passwords for everything and 2FA, I'm still wary to do that because there's no way to get them back.

After erasing old phone you won’t get it back. Don’t worry. Not too hard to go through coinbase and any other site you use 2FA and have them turn it off. Then log back in and turn 2FA back on with your new phone and Authenticator app. If you are afraid you might do this again then save the security code with your new 2FA app. I don’t personally. I’d probably lose it and it seems like a security hole. Can more easily just remember to setup 2FA app on a new phone before deleting old phone.

1. Always use 2-factor authentication (2FA) on exchanges to minimize your risk of having accounts compromised. 2. When using 2FA, go with a device-based solution such as Authenticator or Authy, rather than SMS based. The risk of a SIM-swap attack is small but not negligible. 3. To be extra safe, create unique new emails to use with all exchange accounts, rather than your usual email. A hacker can't compromise your email address if nobody knows that it exists. 4. Always send a test transaction first. And triple-check your seed, to make sure it's the correct one. 5. If you're getting excited when reading about a new project, you're doing it the wrong way. You should never be excited about a project or emotional about an investment. DYOR means "do your own research," but always do it as if you're looking for problems or holes in their plan. Start off by being as critical as you can about a project. Listen to the people who are attacking the project and try to see if their criticism is valid. 6. The blockchain is permanent and immutable. Remember that. This has advantages and disadvantages. Money is supposed to be fungible. 7. Most people don't realize how important privacy is. See point 6. The pursuit of privacy doesn't mean that you have criminal intent. So don't post any identifying info on reddit, and remember that most blockchain transactions will be visible forever.

Yeah, it does, that's a good option, but I like authy because it doesn't rely on my Microsoft account, but if you make sure your Microsoft account it's using SMS 2FA, you're fine.

And when they inevitably end up getting hacked they are the first one to bitch and moan that it isn't their fault, act like they have no idea how it could have happened, and it is IT's fault for "letting it happen". Enabling app based 2FA is still the biggest shitshow I have seen in a decade or more, especially when the mouthbreathers get a new phone and summarily dismissed all the advice about exporting the 2FA.... then cannot access their sites anymore. I can only imagine that criminals are making more money now than ever before. Bullish times for a black hat, it seems.

For CEX register both yubikeys, so you have a backup. For other things that require 2FA codes you can register your pair of yubikeys with the same secret key provided. Also get a ledger, doesn't matter if your bags are not heavy yet.

SMS 2FA has problems a determined hacker can contact your company transfer your service to a new SIM card and bypass the security. It’s safer than nothing but If you have lots of money and leaked personal information you can also get extremely hurt.

Do not trade on CDC app. Use the exchange(sorry America). 2FA is a no brainer. But be carefull with Google Authenticator. If your phone dies and you don't have the proper codes backed up, you can not reinstall. Read a lot, this sub included, althoug good info is hard to find here these days with the moon farming spam. Don't trust Celebs/YouTuber shilling coins, probably just pump and dump shit. Keep it simple, try stuff out with small amounts (Yieldly, Farming, DeFi, Earn....). That is wat I learned this year. Started in september.

Not to beat a dead horse, but write down your seed phrases and any pws on PAPER. Do it now. Shit can happen. Your latop where you store the pws in a word doc can die. When you upgrade your phone with all your crypto apps, the pws may not transfer. Or they will, but your 2FA will not. Lots of stuff can go wrong. Keep the info on paper, and keep that paper in a safe place like a locked drawer or file cabinet or a safe.

Google Auth was mainly what I was referring to, however you still have to be careful about the device you use for 2FA (and don't forget to write down the recovery code!) ​ What recovery code? I use Google Authenticator and I can't find anything about a recovery code in the app.

You can buy on exchange withdrawal to your wallet. Unless you are freaked out by KYC this shouldn’t be an issue. Keeping it on exchange is another thing to consider security wise. I would say as long as you have your device 2FA in place it is pretty secure if you stick with established exchange. Exchange hack rarely affect someone directly, if it is then it is most likely the case either they are phished or they don’t protect themself with 2FA properly. Exchange hack typically occurs in exchange’s wallet level and it is a matter of whether they are solvent after the hack or not and so far some exchanges, their user funds are not affected.

Also backup the 2FA key, many people have it enabled, without backing it up and when they loose or reset their phone, they are screwed

As the amounts of money I’m dealing with have grown in crypto, so have my methods for dealing with it. This is my current setup. -Laptop DEDICATED to crypto. This means it is used for literally nothing else. No random web browsing. No games. Just buys/sells/moves. Windows 10 with Bitlocker enabled. All AV services turned on. -Yubikey and LastPass. Where possible I use the yubikey as my 2FA option. If hardware isn’t allowed I use Google Auth (never SMS). All my passwords are 24 character randomly generated and I don’t know what they are as LastPass manages them. I use the yubikey in conjunction with LastPass as well. Brave browser to handle chrome based wallet extensions. -Ledger Nano S. To date it’s still the most reliable hardware wallet and with the latest firmware, is not known to be hackable if lost or stolen. -Seeds twice documented on paper only. One copy stored in my gun safe and the other in another location I feel comfortable with in case of a fire. Probably gonna pickup a Nano S plus when that drops and use that as my new primary and move my old Nano S to the secondary storage location.

Yes secure your router, if your machines are on wifi (ideally not) secure your wifi. If you access on the move use VPN. Use open source password managers and secure 2FA on all accounts. You can go way down the rabbit hole of course, including using your own DNS servers, pihole to stop unwanted ad/malware, having segregated and firewalled networks for your secure/insecure devices etc.

MM is run completely locally meaning that there is no point in adding 2FA because the 2Fa would also bee stores locally the security comes from the token being stored on an external server.

I’m sorry for your loss, but please stop saying that you didn’t have your seed phrase or private key on your PC. Of course you had, how else would you be able to sign transactions in MetaMask? You can even look up your seed phrase in the settings menu of MM. That’s what a software wallet is and precisely the reason why hardware wallets exist. And all accounts in MM use the same seed phrase and password. You know this because you enter the password first when opening MM and then switch accounts. And you know this because the seed phrase is located under MM settings, not account properties. And you know this because you wrote down *one* seed phrase, not multiple, on your piece of paper, because you only had one. So it’s pretty simple, really: You installed malware, the malware pulled your seed phrase after you unlocked MetaMask, and the scammer then just transferred funds. You got scammed, not hacked. However I agree that *not getting scammed* requires significant effort and knowledge, which not everyone wants or deal with. So there is definitely room for improvement to protect the user from himself, and for this reason there will always be custodial wallets with advantages like 2FA, IP checks, device recognition, spending limits, support, refunds, etc.

As someone who works in IT I'm telling you straight up, people for the most part are completely and entirely uninterested in learning about IT security and best practices etc. They piss and moan about mandatory security training and even something as simple as enabling 2FA for offsite access is met with hostility and constant bitching and moaning. Tell them they also need a secure password and you'd think they are about to die the way they react. Whilst I know you used the general term "hacked", most people aren't "hacked". They are phished / scammed or unknowingly run malware etc. Social engineering is one of the most common ways attackers get into your shit. In terms of hardware wallets, if the device isn't connected and it's protected by 2FA using an app or hardware key then they have absolutely no way of getting your investments unless they physically have every single device.

Oh for sure, SMS verification is actually extremely easy to bypass via SIM swap attacks and spoofing, and this is where the "social engineering" aspect of this can come into play Google Auth was mainly what I was referring to, however you still have to be careful about the device you use for 2FA (and don't forget to back up the recovery code!) That being said, I do very much agree that stuff like this should be kept in mind at all times. When we get complacent and overconfident with our security is when we can lose everything, just like a machinist getting that little bit too comfortable with their lathe and losing an arm

Hardware/cold wallets may have vulnerabilities but there's a point where the effort to exploit these specific vulnerabilities isn't worth it, and there's no getting past secure 2FA for exchanges As far as sketchy sites, just use the D.O.N.T. rule

These wallets need to include a 2FA method. Coinbase Wallet offers SMS and Biometric authentication, while Metamask doesn't offer anything. Increase adoption will also increase with more security on these hot wallets. Outside of staking my coins I just don't feel comfortable with anything else because one wrong clicked link - and poof!

Good to hear, don’t forget to do research on securing your assets! Look into security keys (yubikey) or Authenticator apps if you keep your crypto on an exchange. Highly recommend you don’t leave 2FA as sms/email. Also look into cold wallets once you have more than $1k in crypto. Happy New Year friend!

on the crypto.com app you can set up 2FA. you can also do it on their exchange. is it different right my main question tho is... i cannot set up the first 2FA on the desktop right? i can only log into their exchange on the browser right?

Download Authy onto your new phone and then export the 2FA to it from the app in your old phone. You should always have a backup on a 2nd device in case you lose access to your main device. If that happens you're looking at getting exchanges to take 2FA off your account. Not an easy task.

Are you importing your transactions via CSV files or do you have an API connection with your exchange set up? CSV is safe and so are API’s, as long as you’ve set them up for querying only. That’s all to say, they can’t touch your money but I do wish Koinly would add 2FA

I love how AUM, for you, classifies someone’s level of understanding of Crypto, hell, even assets for that matter. I’m not doxing the individual, but I’ve met some pretty sophisticated individuals with money, FA’s, and so on. I’d gladly take a listen to his advice any day of the week. Nor, did i even mention that I’m listening to his crypto advice. I’d rather an FA who is risk adverse with his clients over one that’s not.

For coinbase, you go to settings and security section. Then you pick 2FA options. If you don’t manually set it up, it automatically becomes set as sms. If you get sim swapped or phished, someone can easily recover your account. I recommend downloading an Authenticator app (like google or Microsoft) and setting that up as your 2FA. Plenty of videos on YouTube on how to set it up etc.

The average AUM is 92 million.. so i wouldn’t call a “Single Mid-Tier financial advisor” who oversees $650M AUM that at all. Mind you; this individual himself oversees $650M. That is his top tier clients. His office itself, with 2 other highly qualified FA’s oversee an additional $250M. Putting his office close to $1B AUM - which is located is a very small mid-west office. I’ll gladly listen to his counter-arguments. Learning is pretty smart to do.

Don’t forget to look into securing your assets! If you keep it on an exchange, use security key (yubikey) or an Authenticator app. Never use sms/email as 2FA. Once you hit $1k+, maybe look into cold wallet if you haven’t already.

Ignore DMs about crypto and any offers that seem too good to be true. Do not share your seed phrase with anyone. Use 2FA in every platform (with an auth app or a yubikey).

I suppose you don't enter your seed phrase to make transactions with either at any point so all it would take is for someone to have control over your PC and potentially no extra 2FA or password mechanisms to stop the transaction, but I wouldn't know as I don't use metamask. With trust wallet all it takes is your phone being unlocked and knowing the pin to get in right
