RE: What is your Steem Disaster Plan?
i was talking to someone the other day about how there are companies out there that are meant to handle exactly these types of situations but i don't know how it would work. I suppose if you wanted it to be truly secure you would have to either believe that they weren't going to steal it themselves once they had the keys, or that the keys would be password encrypted and the only person that had the password to that would be a totally separate party. It's complicated but it is worth discussing, for my various holdings there are family members who have my keys should something happen to me and I suppose if there is anyone in this world that you should be able to trust unconditionally it is supposed to be them ! :)
I dont know... I read a stat a while ago that said the biggest perpetrators of identity theft are usually family members. For example adults who open credit cards eith their childrens info. Horrible stuff! I agree with you though, you should be able to trust your family. I have been toying with setting up a trust and in that case the private keys would be held in that. I am not sure how that all works though.
i would be willing to bet that you can set up a will with very specific information in it that probably even the lawyer wouldn't be able to understand. At least if you passed on there would be someone that could figure it out.
I don't think a lawyer would risk getting disbarred over a couple grand in crypto that they likely don't know how to access anyway.
