David Schwartz, co-creator of XRP Ledger and Ripple board member, suggested a Bitcoin inheritance setup where two duplicate hardware wallets share the same recovery phrase and PIN, but access is split between relatives holding the devices and friends holding the PINs. This method aims to secure Bitcoin access after death without using multisignature wallets, which require separate keys. The proposal follows security concerns after a Coldcard firmware flaw exposed some wallets to theft. While the setup offers a practical inheritance approach, it depends on trust and coordination among parties and does not guarantee security like multisignature systems. Legal and procedural steps remain essential for effective inheritance planning.
