  TOTP stands for Time-Based One-Time Password. It is a security measure that adds an extra layer of protection to cryptocurrency wallets. TOTP works by generating a unique password that changes every few seconds. This password is required along with the regular login credentials to access the wallet. By using TOTP, even if someone manages to steal the login credentials, they won't be able to access the wallet without the constantly changing password. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and enhances the overall security of cryptocurrency wallets.

  TOTP is a game-changer when it comes to securing cryptocurrency wallets. It adds an additional step to the authentication process, making it much harder for hackers to gain access to the wallet. With TOTP, users need to enter a time-based password that is generated on their mobile device. This password changes every few seconds, making it virtually impossible for hackers to guess or intercept. TOTP is widely used by major cryptocurrency exchanges and wallet providers to ensure the safety of user funds.
