  One way to recover your Google Authenticator for cryptocurrency without your old phone is to use the backup codes that you should have generated when you first set up the Authenticator. These backup codes are meant to be used in situations like this. If you have the backup codes, you can simply enter them into the new phone's Authenticator app and regain access to your cryptocurrency accounts. If you didn't generate backup codes, you may need to contact the support team of the specific cryptocurrency exchange or platform you are using. They may have a process in place to help you recover your Authenticator without your old phone.
