Bitcoin Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for Bitcoin crypto-currency enthusiasts. It's 100% free, no registration required.

I see that Mt. Gox now supports the Google Authenticator app (on Android, iOS - iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, and on Blackberry) for 2-factor authentication (in addition to support for Yubikey, of course).

What are all the various 2-factor (also referred to as multi-factor) methods available for Bitcoin-related sites (exchanges, eWallets, mining pools, other services, etc.)?

Blockchain.info also supports "email 2-factor auth". You are sent a code to a predefined email address whenever you try to open your wallet. – ripper234 Jul 5 '12 at 4:54

Added, thanks!! – Stephen Gornick Jul 10 '12 at 23:07
Actually, to be extremely pedantic, blockchain.info does not support Yubikey, at least, not properly. – David Feb 1 at 13:56

They use 2 Factor ID at ZIGGAP which I found to be one of the best new exchanges out there.

Hello and welcome to the StackExchange. Please keep your answers on topic - singing praises about Ziggapp is tangential to what is being asked. Please specify which two-factor authentication methods are available in the site mentioned. – ThePiachu Feb 25 at 10:33
Moreover, please link it. – Lohoris Feb 25 at 14:05
