    Absolutely! Follow these steps to enable Google Authenticator on Coinbase for added security: 1. Start by downloading and installing the Google Authenticator app on your smartphone. 2. Open the Coinbase app on your smartphone and log in to your account. 3. Navigate to the 'Settings' section and select 'Security'. 4. Under the 'Two-Factor Authentication' option, choose 'Add Authenticator'. 5. Launch the Google Authenticator app and tap on the '+' icon to add a new account. 6. Use the app to scan the QR code displayed on the Coinbase website. 7. Once the QR code is scanned, a 6-digit verification code will be generated in the Google Authenticator app. 8.

Enabling Google Authenticator provides an additional layer of security to your Coinbase account, making it more difficult for unauthorized individuals to gain access.
