Domain Verification vs Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Domain verification is the process of confirming that a cryptocurrency website or service is authentic and controlled by its legitimate owner, protecting users from phishing sites, DNS hijacking, and fraudulent impostor platforms.

Security method requiring two different forms of verification to access an account—typically something you know (password) and something you have (phone, authenticator app, or hardware key)—providing critical protection against unauthorized access even if passwords are compromised. Also known as: 2FA.
