Is having Project Fi (Google as the carrier) safer?

  Yes, according to Kraken. "Consider switching to a more secure telco, without a human interface. Google Fi: no phone support agents, no physical locations, no problems." https://blog.kraken.com/post/219/security-advisory-mobile-phones/ https://blog.kraken.com/post/219/security-advisory-mobile-ph...

    That's very interesting. I've looked at Google's lack of human support as a bug in the past, but when Google is used to protect currency that could be a feature.

    Google Fi actually has great support. When I ported a number over to them, I had several issues and each time I called, they were able to help and I was always connected to someone instantly. That was a year ago.

      I have no experience with them. From Kraken's perspective, human support is a negative; it's just an opportunity for a clueless rep to hand your account to a hacker.
