  Using a 2-factor authentication app adds an extra layer of security to your Bitstamp account. It requires you to provide a second form of verification, usually a unique code generated by the app, in addition to your password. This means that even if someone manages to obtain your password, they would still need access to your authentication app to log in. It greatly reduces the risk of unauthorized access to your account and helps protect your funds from being stolen.

  By using a 2-factor authentication app, you significantly decrease the chances of your Bitstamp account being compromised. It adds an extra step to the login process, making it much harder for hackers to gain access to your account. It's like having a second lock on your door - even if someone manages to pick the first lock (your password), they would still need to bypass the second lock (the authentication app) to get in. It's a simple yet effective way to enhance the security of your account.
