- One option is to disable the authenticator app on your old phone and set it up again on your new phone. Most authenticator apps have an option to disable or remove an account. Once you've disabled the app on your old phone, you can set it up on your new phone using the same account credentials. This will allow you to generate new authentication codes and access your cryptocurrency on the new phone.

- If you no longer have access to the old phone and cannot disable the authenticator app, you can try contacting the cryptocurrency exchange or wallet provider that you use. They may have a process in place for transferring your account to a new device without the need for the old phone. They may require additional verification steps to ensure the security of your account.
