Yubikey on Binance – WHY do you force me to add OTP 2FA?!
u/Binance, why are you forcing me to add OTP to my account?
I had Authenticator 2FA OTP linked to my Binance account previously, then I have purchased 2 Yubikey security keys and I have linked them to my account. After that, I’ve removed Authenticator method.
Now, I have additional Yubikey (3rd one) and I want to bind it to my account. I already have 2 keys binded. When I try to add 3rd one, you force me to add either phone number verification or authenticator.
WHY?!!!!!!!!
I already have 2 security keys binded and I want to authorize this action using THIS authentication method.
I have YubiKeys and an authenticator app set-up. The Binance website always asks for a YubiKey on login and I have not found a way to bypass this. It only seems to ask for email and/or authenticator codes as an additional check for sensitive transactions, like security changes. So I don’t think the authenticator app will reduce your security overall.
