Self-custody without the single point of failure.
Recover your wallet through trusted guardians, or pass it on with a dead-man’s-switch inheritance flow.
Social recovery splits your secret into Shamir shares held by guardians — recovery needs an M-of-N threshold and is owner-cancellable. The backend only ever stores ciphertext.
Inheritance adds a passive dead-man’s-switch: heirs can claim only after a long period of silence, so your crypto is never lost to a lost phone.
