  Two-factor authentication is a security measure that adds an extra layer of protection to cryptocurrency accounts. It requires users to provide two pieces of evidence to verify their identity, typically something they know (password) and something they have (a physical device like a smartphone). This prevents unauthorized access even if a hacker manages to obtain the user's password. By requiring an additional authentication factor, two-factor authentication significantly reduces the risk of hacking and unauthorized account access.

  Two-factor authentication is like having a double lock on your cryptocurrency account. It makes it much harder for hackers to break in and steal your funds. Even if they somehow manage to get your password, they would still need the second factor, which is usually a unique code generated by an app on your smartphone. This adds an extra layer of security and makes it almost impossible for hackers to gain access to your account without physical possession of your device.
