Policy Notice: Email 2FA to be enabled. January 19, 2018 Price Givens price.bitcoinwallet.com

Effective January 12th at 18:00 UTC BitcoinWallet.com accounts will have email based 2FA security activated for logging in and for sending bitcoin. This is an important and valuable upgrade to the security of your bitcoin. This security feature will be introduced incrementally, so your account may not have this feature activated immediately. All accounts will be migrated to 2FA within a few days. What is 2FA security? 2FA security means that in addition to entering your email address and password to log in, you will also have to enter a 6 digit security code. A new 6 digit code will be emailed to you every time you log in or send bitcoin. How does it work? To log in to BitcoinWallet.com you will enter your email address and password like you normally do. We will then send you an email that contains a secure code. You will enter the secure code and will be logged in. A similar process will occur when you try to send bitcoin. We will email you a secure code which you will enter on BitcoinWallet.com. What do I need to do? Make sure you receive emails from BitcoinWallet.com in your inbox. If you receive emails from us in your spam folder, mark us as a truted sender. What if I use Authy 2FA for BitcoinWallet.com? We are discontinuing our Authy SMS and smart phone 2FA service and replacing it on January 12th with email based 2FA. Is there any risk to me? Yes. It will be essential that you have access to the email account you use to log in to BitcoinWallet.com. If you lose access to your email account, or used a fake email account you will no longer be able to log in with that email address. If you do not have access to the email account you use to log in to BitcoinWallet.com, you need to log in to your account before 18:00 UTC on January 12 and update your email address. If you do not do this you could lose access to your account.
