> So really the ideal is not just having an app that generates a token but one that generates a specific type of token depending on what type of transaction you're performing and won't accept, for example, a login token when adding a new payee.

Some banks in India have a separate “transaction password” that’s required to operate on the account vs just login and view balances. It’s not a rotating token, but it’s somewhat close to what you’re suggesting.
I use my own domain for all email, but as I age, something that has started to concern me is the longevity of email going to my domain. No-one in my family is very tech-savvy so it's entirely possible they don't know to renew my domain and will end up losing all my incoming email as a result. In this sort of scenario, a big provider like Gmail which will clearly outlast me seems more reliable to pass on this account. Has anyone formulated a plan for someone inheriting your email account?

I'm very excited for this. Does anyone remember the Sony Vaio P series of laptops that had this capability? You had to insert those huge cellular adapters. It was such a dream of portability well ahead of its time.
