    Important Information: 
    1) It is highly recommended that a copy of your Recovery Key Phrase is stored securely. RKP is needed when you attempt to bind into a new Google Authenticator.
    2) To ensure maximum account and asset security, Bybit urges all traders to have their 2FA binded to their Google Authenticator at all times.
