Your crypto-assets are secure. But if you disappear tomorrow, will your loved ones be able to access them?
Between 2.3 and 3.7 million bitcoins are already lost forever. Roughly one bitcoin in six is inaccessible for good — keys lost, or holders who died without organizing the transmission. Every year, in the silence of unprepared successions, thousands of crypto accesses join this quiet cemetery.
This guide exists so that yours doesn't end up there.
The good student's paradox
The more you have followed the rules of crypto security, the harder your succession becomes. A hardware wallet? One more obstacle for your heirs. Two-factor authentication? They'll be blocked at the very first step. A passphrase? They'll restore the recovery phrase, find an almost-empty wallet, and conclude in good faith that there is nothing.
Every layer of security you add during your lifetime is one more lock on the door your heirs will have to open. This is the central dilemma of any crypto transmission — and the guiding thread of this book.

The guide recommends Ledger, the hardware wallet used as an example throughout the book. Keeping your keys offline remains the foundation of any sound transmission setup.
