I bought a OEM yubikey from bitcoin.de. There is written it is preconfigured for OTP at bitcoin.de in slot 1.
Can I use this Yubikey also for Kraken? Do I have to configure something new at the yubikey?
Can I use the Yubikey at all my accounts on exchanges? Or only on one or two?
Hi Serpens - You should be able to use the other available slots for other exchanges. For Kraken, you just have to set it up under Security > Two-Factor Authentication and choose Yubikey for the method.
I think I know:
-A simple yubikey has two slots, so I can only use it for two exchanges, not more. Right?
- My yubikey is preconfigured in slot 1 for bitcoin.de, so everything is fine with bitcoin.de. But my conclusion is, that I have to configure slot 2 on my own, to use it on kraken.com, right? But I don't know how. I could just try something, but I don't want to lock myself out of my kraken account.
Please note: "configure" the yubikey does not mean to simply choose it on kraken.com security page. Configure means to configure slot 2 to make OTP. I'm not sure, if I have to do this, but it is my conclusion when it says "slot 1 is preconfigured" -> "slot 2 is not".
Edit:
can I see a history of the last logins? I only see the last login, but I want to see the login before.
Hi Serpens - Yes, I think all Yubikeys have only two slots. If you have the master key set up already (which you should ), then I'd just go ahead and try it for account login. If something goes wrong, you can just get a two-factor bypass code using the master key). If you don't have the master key set up, then you could try doing it with the Yubikey first and just delete it before you do it again for login. When you select the Yubikey option, you will be prompted for the OTP. Plug in your Yubikey and press the button. For slot 2, you want to do a long press (2.5 - 5 seconds). You will then be take to a screen that will ask you to confirm the OTP. Do another long press and you should get a message saying that you've successfully set up 2FA. See here for more on the long press vs short press:

We can give you a longer history of your logins if you want, but please create a ticket for this. It's definitely not information I want to relay through bitcointalk.
