Question 1

What is crypto inheritance planning?

Accepted Answer

It is a documented process that defines who can act, what must be verified, and how access is coordinated so assets can be recovered without exposing private keys.

Question 2

Do you ever hold or control the crypto?

Accepted Answer

No. Bitzo is non-custodial. We coordinate verification and process; keys and wallets remain under your control.

Question 3

Will Bitzo ever ask for seed phrases or private keys?

Accepted Answer

No. Bitzo never asks for seed phrases, private keys, wallet PINs, or exchange passwords.

Question 4

Does an executor need probate before anything can happen?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the situation and the authority required. Bitzo verifies identity and legal authority, and the required documents are defined in your plan.

Question 5

What if my family doesn't understand crypto?

Accepted Answer

That is exactly what the process is designed for. Bitzo guides verified contacts through the steps, with documentation and audit trails.

Question 6

How does this relate to crypto security?

Accepted Answer

Security and inheritance are linked. A plan must withstand real-world loss, coercion, and device failure.
