I set up a Dead Man's Switch. It sends me an email with a link every day. If I click it, I acknowledge that I am alive and nothing happens. If I do not, after a grace period and more reminders, it sends an email to my wife with a passw

Fair enough. It is an advertisement, like when you read a "What is the best free email account?" blog article on the ProtonMail blog; you know it is an advertisement for their own product. As a company that builds stuff, you need

I think Vaultwarden is the right place to store secrets and SSH keys. They can use the emergency recovery feature to request access after a certain period. You could then share the complete instructions via email using a dead man's swi

How do you perform the check-ins? Can you send messages to "normal" people, such as your parents, or must they be running a script to check the blockchain periodically? Most people want an easy-to-use solution for sending messages

No upvoting ring here. In fact, I didn't realize this blew up until now. We routinely post blog articles explaining digital legacy to people. And oftentimes we recommend our own product, as we honestly believe it's one of the most
