Finally. Binance listened. Now you can add more than one Yubikey for extra security!

Hello,

I've been literally spamming Binance support over this. They only allowed one Yubikey to be enabled for signing in and confirming withdrawals, I wasn't comfortable with this as losing your key means you'd have to re-do KYC.

Out of nowhere, I checked my Binance security page to find out that you can now add as many Yubikeys as you want!

ELI5: Yubikey is a hardware key that works pretty much like your hardware wallet, but for your identity. It makes phishing attempts much harder since you need to touch a physical button to sign in. That button won't be enabled unless the site you're trying to log into is Binance.com. Google has implemented this technology and gave those keys to each of their 90k employees and they've reported 0 phishing attempts ever since.

The technology that makes this possible is called FIDO2, it comes out of the box with your Trezor/Ledger. If you don't want to spend money on a separate device, then make your hardware wallet a storage for your wealth and online accounts.

Take your security to the next level, especially after what happened in May of last year.
