I've recently signed on with a very new XMR based market site similar to MoneroMarket & XMRBazaar called "Monero United":

I'm not a natural evangelist of these kinds of things, and I'm a skeptic of anything new out of practicality. But I'm impressed by one thing they've enabled... PGP-key Based 2FA.

I'm asked to submit a pubkey when I make an account. If 2FA is enabled, it gives me a verification code encrypted with my own pubkey on login, which I have to decrypt with my privkey & then submit to complete 2FA.

Maybe this has been done elsewhere, but this is the first time I've encountered it and I find it a very neat and elegant 2FA method compared to many alternatives.
