 Keys Without Heirs: Can Sovereignty Be Shared?

Bitcoin gave us something no government could:
sovereignty.

Not the kind printed on a passport.
But the kind encrypted in a private key.

And yet, this absolute sovereignty
comes with a quiet paradox:

You hold the key —
but only you hold it.

No backups in the sky.
No second signature at the bank.
No smiling lawyer to split the funds fairly.

If you vanish,
your coins remain.
But without you, they mean nothing.

🧱 Gold dies in vaults.
🏡 Land is fought over in courts.
But Bitcoin?

Bitcoin disappears silently.

Some say, “Use multi-sig.”
Some say, “Write a will.”

But even that requires trust —
and the very point of Bitcoin was
not to need it.

So here we are:

A revolution built on keys.
But no key to pass the revolution on.

That’s why I created btcparcels.com —
Not to solve the trust issue,
but to mark a moment before it’s too late.

A symbolic deed —
not for control,
but for continuity.

Because sovereignty,
if it ends with you,
was never a revolution.

It was just a secret.
