How to Protect Bitcoin for Your Heirs With the Push of a ‘Dead Man’s Button’

Quote
If the button isn't pressed one week, it is assumed the bitcoin user is dead or incapacitated and it's time for the bitcoin to be passed on, at which point the service automatically dispenses a "secret," which can be used to retrieve the crypto.

Here they are talking about LN, but it's okay to think about these things. (it doesn't have to be LN.)

Don't cheap out with this. Go set up your will with a lawyer that specializes in this. Make sure all your accounts and the information needed to access them is setup ahead of time for your heirs. Choose your estate executor. Update as needed every few years. This is important stuff if you have a family or otherwise want to disburse your assets after you die. Nothing is as soul draining as when already suffering from loss to then have to spend your time you should be grieving instead messing with lawyers and gov't types and unscrupulous relatives because your loved one failed to plan ahead. Ask me how I know this.

Here's btctalk thread about a dead man's button system, still in alpha though.
This is one of the few topics I'm always interested in.

Sad to see Trace chuck his reputation over a shitcoin. Maybe the rumours of him being btc-broke were true.

It's a serious concern that many long term bitcoin hodlers and influencers were tricked to sell their bitcoins expecting to buy them back for profit at lower price. One must investigate and trace out where this command/advice from a pseudo authority with disastrous consequences came from?

Pandemic and depression, all the central banks will gleefully print money - to no effect.

well many of us hodled through $20k without blinking an eye so you cant really call us "weak hands" but ill tell ya at $100k im sure i would sell something.

It was easy to hold through, since it was not life-changing money for most of us.

Next time will be different, for sure.

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?
Problem is, we most probably won't cash out when it reaches $100k. Hardened by the previous cycle, we'll stoically watch our corn plummet to only $30k, upon which time it will be declared dead, weak hands will sell, some of us will get wrenched, the rest of us will HoDL (because we're HoDLers) until 2026 when it reaches $1M. We might sell some at that time...

and 1 million. surely i would break down and sell a bit more.

edit: assuming a loaf of bread doesnt cost $200k etc

I'll bite.  What's the meaning of an M7 hand sign?

edit: here's the reference



Looks like "MB" to me.
Prolly meaning "My Bitch"Huh

What good is your money when you're dead?  Seems like you should want it to benefit your heirs.
I'm over 60 and my bitcoins are sitting in a wallet that nobody but me can access.
I have to start thinking about this stuff.

Same here, but i have about 20 years to go where you are now, age wise...
Still, my wife still does not know how to even handle a seed etc. My kids are too young. When they are adult, each one will be given the seed to a wallet with a single bitcoin, if everything works out as planned. I also thought about asking a notary about that problem, tomorrow, when i have to go there because of some other reason.

Eadem mutata resurgo
Italy quarantining sections of the country, armed police and military forming physical roadblocks. Food gone from stores.

China not updating infected numbers, same with canada, the states, sweden, a number of non-western countries. Middle eastern countries closing borders.

Things are getting interesting. If you haven't stocked up on food yet, better get it done.

Italy is indeed the biggest blob on the map, excluding Asia.

It should be noted, however, that all four people in Italy that died from the virus were elderly (78, 75, 77, and 84 years old).

... it should also be noted further that people only just started dying in Italy (2 days ago). All it means is elderly/comorbid people succumb first. Younger, fitter, stronger will fight off disease longer but total fatalities are only slightly biased towards older/weaker people on longer run disease progression data from Chinese studies (believe what you will from communists cunts). Italy has an issue, maybe Europe now, there's at least another potential 600 asymptomatic cases who maybe wandering around there they need to find and isolate, fast.

2 bad years at 4 year intervals. Possibly halving related? If the pattern holds then the next bad year is still 2 years away.

365*2 = 730 Days ---- Enough time to cash some profits if we reach magic numbers with in 600 days----

Problem is, we most probably won't cash out when it reaches $100k. Hardened by the previous cycle, we'll stoically watch our corn plummet to only $30k, upon which time it will be declared dead, weak hands will sell, some of us will get wrenched, the rest of us will HoDL (because we're HoDLers) until 2026 when it reaches $1M.
