Crypto Estate Planning
$799 Flat Fee - 5 to 7 Business Days
Crypto-specific provisions, a wallet access protocol, and key management guidance, with RUFADAA-compliant digital asset planning. Drafted by a Florida attorney.
Get StartedWhat You Get
Self-custody is the right answer for sovereignty. It is the wrong answer for inheritance unless you plan for it. Families do lose significant crypto positions because the holder died with the keys in their head, in a wallet only they could access, or with a seed phrase no one in the family understood. The chain does not care that you intended your kids to have it.
Our flat-fee Crypto Estate Plan is drafted by a Florida attorney. It is designed to preserve your opsec while you are alive and to give your executor a written path to your assets when the time comes: without exposing your seed phrase to probate, your CPA's email, or your nephew's curiosity.
- Crypto-specific estate planning provisions drafted by a Florida attorney
- A wallet access protocol your executor can follow, kept separate from your will
- A key management guidance document for self-custody and exchange holdings
- Chapter 740 (RUFADAA) compliant provisions for digital assets
- Integration with your existing estate plan, or with a new will or trust
- Not included: wallet setup or configuration, tax work, or smart contract auditing

Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I just put my seed phrase in my will?
Three reasons. First, wills become public during probate: your seed phrase would be in a court file. Second, your executor probably is not crypto-literate enough to safely retrieve, secure, and transfer assets that move on-chain instantly. Third, if you have multisig wallets, a passphrase-protected hardware wallet, or DeFi positions, a single seed phrase may not be enough for your executor to reach and move those assets correctly. We prepare a plan that separates the legal provisions (in your will or trust) from the technical access (in a separately stored wallet access protocol for your executor).
How does this work with my existing will or trust?
We prepare the crypto-specific provisions so they can be added to the will or trust you already have, and the wallet access protocol is written to work with it. If you have no estate plan, we recommend pairing this service with our Revocable Living Trust and Pour-Over Will complete estate plan or starting with a Last Will with Testamentary Trust.
What about multisig?
Multisig is one of the strongest opsec setups for living, and one of the worst for inheritance if not planned. The wallet access protocol and key management guidance address who holds which keys and how the remaining signers and your executor find out what to do if a signer dies. We do not set up, configure, or test your multisig.
Do you handle Shamir Secret Sharing?
Shamir backups are one common approach for high-value self-custody estates. The key management guidance can describe who holds which shares and how the recovery steps are documented for your executor. We do not generate or hold your shares: that is yours alone.
What about NFT and DAO governance tokens?
NFTs are generally personal property, transferable by will or trust like other digital assets. DAO governance tokens are more complex: many DAOs have on-chain procedures for member dissociation that the operating agreement or smart contract controls. The plan can record your DAO holdings and where their governing documents are kept. Reviewing or interpreting a DAO's documents or smart contracts is not included.
How does this differ from your other estate planning services?
The Revocable Living Trust and Pour-Over Will is our complete estate plan (trust + will + POA + healthcare + digital). The Last Will and Testament with Digital Planning is a focused will with a digital estate inventory and access plan. Crypto Estate Planning focuses on the crypto-specific provisions, the wallet access protocol, and key management guidance for self-custody and exchange holdings. It can be paired with either of the other plans.
