    Changing your 2FA device on Bitstamp is a breeze! You won't lose access to your account as long as you follow the proper steps. Here's what you need to do: 1. Get a 2FA app like Google Authenticator or Authy on your new phone. 2. Sign in to your Bitstamp account and go to the 'Security' settings. 3. Disable the current 2FA on your old device. 4. Enable 2FA on your new device by scanning the QR code or manually entering the secret key provided by Bitstamp. 5. Verify the setup by entering the code generated by the 2FA app on your new phone. By following these instructions, you can change your 2FA device on Bitstamp hassle-free and without any worries about losing access to your account. Keep your backup codes or recovery key in a secure place, just in case anything goes wrong.
