The sharing of users' private details is not encouraged in the cryptocurrency ecosystem due to the inherent privacy and security features cryptocurrencies provide.

Pseudonymity, encryption, decentralization, and a trustless environment are fundamental elements of cryptocurrencies, offering individuals control over their personal information and protecting them from identity theft, fraud, surveillance, and other privacy concerns commonly associated with traditional financial systems.

But if there's mistake in the cryptocurrency there should be a system to prevent since privacy is very important in the cryptocurrency space.

2FA adds an extra layer of security to your crypto accounts. By enabling this feature, you will need to provide a second verification factor, such as a code from a mobile app or a text message, in addition to your password. 2FA helps protect your accounts from unauthorized access and potential fraudulent transactions.
