Safety First: Honeygain Introduces 2FA

Dec 11, 2020 Oct 9, 2024 • 1 min read

We are always striving to make our platform safe to use and access for everyone. To make that happen, we designed multiple-leveled fraudulent activity detection systems and added security layers that protect our users and their earnings.

This November, we introduced BTC payouts, which allow everyone around the world to use Honeygain’s proxyware network and be sure they will be able to payout swiftly. BTC payouts were an immediate success: on the very first week, over 30% of the payouts were sent to BTC wallets!

Unfortunately, immediately after the release, we identified a few potential security issues. That is why we decided to implement two-factor authentication (2FA) to the payout process. Starting from December 11, 2020, all payouts will require the user to confirm the payout by entering a code sent to their registered email. You can find more information on our Help page!

⚠️ ATTENTION ⚠️

All currently pending BTC payouts will be canceled.

The users will find all the credits restored in their account and need to request a payout again, this time with 2FA activated.

Security is our top priority

From now on, emails will become more important when using Honeygain. We suggest you take additional security measures on your end:

Make sure you use complex passwords for both your email and your Honeygain account and update them often!
Only use the official Honeygain dashboard and apps!
Do not share your passwords with any third parties, including custom dashboards, apps, etc.
