You can now order a yubikey if you have a Mt.Gox account and 29.99 USD or equivalent in bitcoins.

You can just login to Mt.Gox and click on "order a yubikey".

For the past weeks we have been focusing on improving the security on our site, both on our side, and on our users' side.

We have tested various options, and the yubikey was chosen as it is cost-effective and secure. Each time you use it, a 44 characters long code is inputted by your yubikey on your keyboard. This string is in fact the hexadecimal representation of an AES128 encrypted message that allows us to certify you are indeed you.

We will start shipping those today to people who have already ordered, and hve some stocks for the next days. So far it is difficult to know exactly how many people will order, swhich make it difficult to provide an estimate. We will  update as we receive more orders on the shipping delays.

When shipped you receive an URL to track your package.
