I’ve explained to my wife so many times how to access my coins if something happens to me. I think she knows how, I am quite sure but I have given her contact details for two forum members I have met in real life numerous times that I know I can trust, just incase she struggled.

It very dangerous to share a seed phrase and most important details about our bitcoin to people including those close to us, but it is very important to have someone we trust in the family that we can share our most important secrets with, the person can be a father, mother or anyone we share our secrets with and who never say it in public, we always have one person in a family who we share our secret with no matter how bad the family looks.

I don’t have anyone who can inherit my bitcoin at this time if anything happens to me, but i have a brother who i trust and i share my bitcoin information with, it has been a years and nothing happened to my bitcoin because we trust each other, and i consider him as my parent because he is older than me, it will be better for a family to know about your bitcoin details than to not to tell anyone about it.

I trust my spouse that is why I would not waste time to expose my wallets to her to know how to withdraw and operate the wallets incase something was to happen to me unplanned. You can never know what will happen in life that is why you have to plan for every disappointment that can happen to you and make you become handicap or dead.

Nobody plans for their life to be uncomfortable for them but nature happens that is why sensitive things like your wallet should be given permission to someone you trust very well so money can be used incase you need it urgently or your family needs it to continue living. Your kids will need to survive if you leave this world unplanned, your burial has to be planned for also and all this will need money hence your backups should be entrusted to your spouse so they don't have to suffer if you are not around anymore.

It is indeed necessary to prepare as soon as possible because we do not know what will happen in the future.. and if our wife understands how to access our wallet after we are gone, it will be very helpful for her because she does not need to ask for help from others to be able to access it, which has a big potential for her to be deceived by others. We just do not want something like that to happen after we are gone that the assets we have accumulated for so long are taken away by others just because of our negligence in not preparing a proper inheritance plan.

Of course, sharing seed phrase with someone else come with risk, even if it's a family member. But I still think that doing so makes sense and is better than letting all that bitcoin disappear with us. At the end of the day, we work hard to make money and build up our asset for our family, not just for ourselves.

I have been doing this for a long time because life is unpredictable. I don't want something to happen to me and then my family has no way to access the Bitcoin I have saved for them.

To me, that's selfish, not being cautious.

Bro, if you're struggling in real life or you're facing some challenges. Don't say that you don't want to live more. I don't know what you're facing but, we have to continue with life. I've been there and thought of the same but, life goes on. I'm not sure yet as well if my family is going to be able to import what I've left for them. They only know things about gadgets but for some small details of technical aspect in wallets, I'm not sure if I've explained it well to them or they are concerned or listened. Anyway, they'll figure that out I guess.

We make wills, and ensure our children, brothers or family members get access to our properties when you are no longer there, and if this is possible, I think entrusting your bitcoin security details should not be a difficult thing for us. Many investors have lost their bitcoin asset this way, because they become so secretive to their family members that they entirely lost their whole bitcoin. Portfolio when the are no longer their, and sometimes their could be need to keep your security details in several places so that, if the security details are not safe in your hands, it could be secured in the hand of your trusted person. But while deciding to make known your bitcoin security details by another person, avoid outsiders because giving it to outsiders could be detrimental to you.

If you want you have plan for your Bitcoin to be accessible sometimes in future, there is no way your security will not be compromise, there will always be a point of failure in your security. So it's either you leave it that way or make sure you spend your Bitcoin before you die. I'm the opinion person that everyone should buy Bitcoin and hold Bitcoin until they are ready to do what they want to do with their Bitcoin, but don't sell for stupid reasons or exit for unreasonable things.

Some people trust their family, their siblings or their wife to know where they locate their Bitcoin, it's their choice and I wouldn't interfere with their choice but if anything happen later, it's on them because trust is something that can be broken anytime. Human beings are not wired to work as zero and one, they can decide to do one, one the next day, this is why the idea of letting people access your storage is very bad but then again, no soul will live forever, so make your choice.

An inheritance is important by nature. Something important must be passed down, and the recipient of the inheritance cannot be just anyone—it must be someone significant in our lives. Heirs are those who will carry on the inheritance, whether physical or non-physical. Bitcoin is an important asset that exists in a non-physical form but constitutes a significant inheritance because of its value.
For those who are unmarried (do not have a spouse), the important people who meet that standard—in my case—are my parents. The parent who meets that standard is, as we know, typically the mother. It’s unthinkable to entrust it to someone who cannot be trusted.
