Whenever I undertake risk I am considering  it twice as much  as I used to
With me gone also my coin will disappear, nothing of my stash value will left for my family, it is  both fascinating and scary
Who among you share the feeling

That's awfully selfish. You do know that there are multiple ways to make sure your family will have access to your bitcoins should you die.

If you aren't the sole controller of your private keys, you don't have any bitcoins.

No sense you make... but don't worry, someone will probably find a way to steal your coins long before you have to worry about dying with them.

I believe i know what he means. Having your wealth at a bank account makes pretty sure that your relatives will get the money when you die for some reason. If you have a wallet at your pc then... thats a different thing. They have to know that you have the wallet, they need to know the password or private key. So you need to give these details to someone... otherwise your bitcoins will be lost for everyone. When you dont have someone you really trust you have a big problem since you dont want to log into your wallet one day and your coins are gone. Will you give the private key to a lawyer instead? If he is using it how will you prove it? And and and... Bitcoins have some problems one has to think about. Of course only if you care and dont want that your "riches" are landing in the rubbish or on ebay.

Please ALWAYS contact me through bitcointalk pm before sending someone coins.

...isn't this what a testament is for ?!

Before you throw my junk away, see that cardboard box located at xyz. It holds instructions and a list of things that will be of interest to you and how to use them.

Problem solved.

If youre relatives arent worth your bitcoins then it would be good when you at least make some setup so that the coins are donated. It would be a pity when they are stranded useless on an address. You arent immortal and something can happen everytime.
If you write your private key on a letter and seal it, giving it to a lawyer or putting it into a bank safe will mean your wish will be taken but your relatives have the right for some of the money. I dont know if there is an automatic setup somehow that can send your coins to charity or so if you really dont want the coins to your relatives.

Look at M of N paper backups and devise a scheme from there.

Split the pieces among your family member and put a required piece in your will. None of them will be able to recreate the wallet and access the funds alone. Anyone who is able to access the will won't be able to recreate the wallet without the pieces from the family members. You can, of course, elaborate on this as much as you like.

If you aren't the sole controller of your private keys, you don't have any bitcoins.

upload your wallet data to multiple storage services online just to be safe, and lock them with a password

then in your will, leave a link and a password with your data

hope I helped Smiley

In this example, anyone who can access your will can access your bitcoins. I prefer M of N where you need multiple pieces of information (held by different people) in order to access the bitcoins.

If you aren't the sole controller of your private keys, you don't have any bitcoins.

Break up the keys and give them to multiple people. More money means more people to distribute the code. This means that any conspiracy to steal your wealth would require enough people such that the distribution of the ill-gotten gains are not individually worth it. Also, the more people that have a portion of the keys, the higher the probability that one or more of them would be unwilling to participate.
