Not YubiKey, but: ETrade (now being acquired by JP Morgan) uses the Symantec VIP hardware token. A quick search for JP Morgan 2FA leads me to believe that JP Morgan uses something similar.

On my ETrade account, I give username and password, then press button on hardware token, get 6-digit TOTP, and append that to the password, then click Login.

Works pretty well, except that linking services such as Plaid don't understand it. Now that Wise (formerly Transferwise) has switched to use Plaid, I have to disable 2FA from my ETrade account, do the transfer in Wise, then enable 2FA again. Works, but a pain.
