🔐 Authy vs Google Authenticator: which one is better for securing your crypto?
I believe this has been discussed previously in this space, but it never hurts to bring it back to the table.
If you are in the crypto world, having a second security factor is key. This is where apps like Authy or Google Authenticator come in. I have both, but the one I use the most is Authy. Why? Because it is practical and, to be honest, I have already given Google too much data to keep adding more.
📲 Authy is beneficial because:
If you change phones, you recover everything without hassle.
You can use it on both computer and phone.
It is equally secure and simple.
🛠️ The downside: you need to be careful with the backup, like everything that is stored online.
In summary: I lean towards Authy because it is more practical for me and gives me a bit more peace of mind regarding privacy. But at the end of the day, everyone chooses what works best for them, based on their experience, needs, and how comfortable they feel with each option.
