Why Most Bitcoin Inheritance Plans Fail
Bitcoin inheritance planning is a critical, yet often overlooked issue facing Bitcoin investors. We know this firsthand, as many of us at Onramp have wrestled with this challenge ourselves, and we speak with individuals every day with concerns about whether their families will be able to access their Bitcoin when it matters most.
Bitcoin is a scarce digital asset and still-nascent technology. While Bitcoin enthusiasts may deeply understand the technicals of self-custody and mechanics of using exchanges, often loved ones do not share that expertise.
As the price rises and we age, the consequences of not having a plan become more serious. Without a clear and secure approach, your family could be left with vague instructions, locked out of accounts, or forced into a lengthy probate process, creating delays, stress, and increased risk of asset loss.
