Welcome to NFT.New York!
We talked about the scenarios for why you should think about protecting your assets.
Now let’s discuss how Vault12 can help you simply and easily back up and recover assets as well as set you up with inheritance for the future. Vault12 is a mobile app that enables you to create a digital Vault guarded by a set of trusted people - friends, family, and business associates.
As you accumulate assets you can back them up in your Vault - this has the side benefit of creating an active inventory of all your assets which is needed for comprehensive inheritance. Assets in your Vault and encrypted and split into pieces that are distributed to your Guardians - and people and devices you own can be designated as Guardians giving you a lot of flexibility.
When you are ready to assign a beneficiary - all you have to do is designate one of your Guardians - and once completed, they will have the ability to request access to your assets.

You will lose your Bitcoin and other crypto when you die...
...unless you set up Crypto Inheritance Management today.
It's simple—if you don't worry about it, nobody else will—not your software or hardware wallets vendors, not your exchanges, not your wealth managers. So you have to think about how to protect the generational wealth you have created and reduce the risks around passing that wealth on to your family and heirs. What are the challenges with crypto inheritance?
- Crypto Wallets are difficult to use and do not offer crypto inheritance management. In fact, most of them tell you to write down your seed phrase on a piece of paper which is practically useless.
- Some people back up their wallet seed phrases or private keys on paper, local devices like hardware wallets or USBs, or in the cloud - all of these options have severe drawbacks from hacking, to accidental loss, to loss of cloud services. No one wants that to happen to their crypto generational wealth.
- Software wallets operate on specific blockchains, yet your crypto assets span multiple blockchains, for inheritance to work, you must be able to manage inheritance across every blockchain - now and forever.
