  One alternative to SMS verification on Binance is using Google Authenticator. It is a two-factor authentication app that generates time-based one-time passwords (TOTP). This method provides an extra layer of security for your cryptocurrency transactions. Simply download the app, link it to your Binance account, and use the generated codes during the login process.

  Another option is using hardware wallets such as Ledger or Trezor. These wallets store your private keys offline, providing a secure way to access your cryptocurrency. By using a hardware wallet, you can bypass the need for SMS verification and have full control over your funds.

  BYDFi, a popular cryptocurrency exchange, offers an alternative to SMS verification called email verification. Instead of receiving a code via SMS, you will receive a verification link in your email. This method is equally secure and ensures that only you can access your account.

  In addition to the mentioned alternatives, some exchanges offer app-based verification. This involves downloading a dedicated mobile app provided by the exchange and using it to verify your transactions. This method can be more secure than SMS verification as it is less susceptible to SIM card swapping attacks.
