My digital life & crypto

Photos, accounts, cryptocurrency — easy to lose forever.

Your photos live in the cloud, and you hold some cryptocurrency in a wallet only you can open.

Without a clear Will

  • Crypto with no recorded access is often lost permanently — no bank can recover it.
  • Online accounts may be frozen or deleted.

With a Will

  • You can direct who inherits digital assets and leave secure access instructions (kept separately from the Will itself).

Practical guidance for NZ

  • Never write seed phrases or passwords in the Will — it becomes a public document once in probate.
  • Use a sealed letter or a password manager's inheritance feature instead.
