{/* Letter Greeting - Personalized salutation */} Dear friends, {/* Letter Body - Main content with consistent paragraph spacing */} Cryptocurrency and digital financial assets present unique challenges in legacy planning because they combine irreversible security measures with complete dependence on credential access. Unlike traditional financial institutions that can work with estate executors, blockchain assets are permanently inaccessible without proper keys and credentials. Billions of dollars in cryptocurrency have been permanently lost due to inadequate legacy planning. When someone dies without sharing wallet credentials, seed phrases, or hardware wallet access information, those assets become irrecoverable. No customer service department can help, no court order can retrieve them, and no technical workaround exists. The main challenges include smart contract ownership is tied to wallet address and cannot be recovered without private keys, metadata stored on centralized servers may disappear if hosting provider shuts down, and ipfs content requires active pinning services to remain accessible long-term. These security features that protect assets during life become absolute barriers after death without proper planning. DeathNote provides secure, encrypted storage for seed phrases, private keys, wallet passwords, and exchange credentials. You can document complex security setups like multi-signature wallets, hardware wallet PINs, and recovery processes while ensuring this sensitive information only reaches designated beneficiaries after proper verification. The stakes are particularly high with cryptocurrency because mistakes are permanent. Take time to document every wallet, every seed phrase, every security layer. Test your recovery process while you're alive to ensure your beneficiaries can actually access what you intend to leave them. {/* Platform-Specific Details */} Platform Overview Primary Use Digital art ownership, collectibles, metaverse assets, membership tokens, gaming items Account Types Ethereum wallets, Polygon wallets, Solana wallets, marketplace accounts (OpenSea, Rarible) Data Types NFT smart contracts (ERC-721, ERC-1155), token IDs, metadata URLs, IPFS hashes, marketplace listings {/* Access Challenges */} Access Challenges Smart contract ownership is tied to wallet address and cannot be recovered without private keys Metadata stored on centralized servers may disappear if hosting provider shuts down IPFS content requires active pinning services to remain accessible long-term Marketplace accounts do not control NFT ownership, which exists entirely on-chain Commercial rights and royalties may have separate legal documentation beyond blockchain ownership {/* Inheritance Guidance */} Inheritance Guidance Step undefined: Step undefined: Step undefined: Step undefined: Step undefined: {/* Related Resources */} Related Resources undefined undefined undefined undefined undefined undefined undefined undefined undefined undefined {/* FAQ Section */} Frequently Asked Questions {/* Letter Signature - Team avatars, names, and brand tagline */} Warmly, {/* Team Signatures - Circular avatars with initials */} JP L CJ 8 S JP, Luca, CJ, 8, and Summer {/* Brand tagline - Small logo and mission statement */} • We help connect the present to the future.
