Vault12
Bitcoin Inheritance
Vault12 is a pioneering digital inheritance and key backup service designed for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency holders. Users designate trusted "guardians" — people or devices — who collectively hold encrypted shards of a recovery phrase using a decentralized peer-to-peer network and quantum-resistant cryptography. No data is stored in the cloud or on Vault12 servers; the system is fully non-custodial and works across all Bitcoin wallets by protecting seed phrases and private keys.
