  One way to import Google Authenticator without an old phone for your cryptocurrency accounts is to use the backup codes provided when you initially set up the app. These backup codes are usually given to you in case you lose access to your phone. If you still have the backup codes, you can use them to set up Google Authenticator on your new phone. Simply open the app on your new phone, select 'Set up account', and choose 'Enter a provided key'. Then, enter one of your backup codes and follow the prompts to complete the setup process. This will import your Google Authenticator accounts without needing the old phone.

  If you don't have the backup codes, another option is to contact the cryptocurrency exchange or service you use and explain your situation. They may have a process in place to help you regain access to your accounts without the old phone. It's important to provide them with any relevant information they may need to verify your identity and ownership of the accounts. Keep in mind that this process may take some time and you may need to provide additional documentation to prove your identity.
