8 categories of digital wealth.
Fragmented inheritance infrastructure.

Private keys are not transferable by court order. Credentials and digital identities sit across incompatible platforms, each with its own rules. The institutions that document first, lead first.

Why Digital Assets Become Inaccessible

Not market volatility. Not theft. Fragmentation across platforms, jurisdictions, and credential systems.

Credential Loss

Passwords, 2FA devices, recovery codes

29%

Life Events

Death, incapacity, no succession plan

22%

Platform Terms

Non-transferable, TOS violations

18%

Technical Failure

Expired domains, deleted accounts

29% of digital value loss is preventable with unified governance across fragmented systems. The framework exists.

Regulatory Clarity Is Emerging — Fragmented by Jurisdiction

RUFADAA in 47 US states. BGH rulings in Germany. MiCA in the EU. Each addresses part of the problem. None connects all 8 categories.

RUFADAA (US)

47 states have adopted uniform rules for digital asset succession. A model exists — but it is US-only.

BGH III ZR 183/17

German courts ruled digital accounts inheritable in 2018. One platform, one jurisdiction. Not a standard.

MiCA (EU 2023/1114)

Documentation and traceability for crypto-asset services. Since 2024. Crypto only.

Platform-Specific

Google Inactive Account Manager. Apple Digital Legacy. Casa. Ledger. Each solves its own silo. None connects to the others.

Advisors who structure digital succession today lead the market tomorrow.
