Who owns the bitcoin after someone died? How to state this in the will? Please share your thoughts.
Someday bitcoins are lost forever and no one would able to access it, i think for sure is, if you have a bitcoin, you need to exchange it emidiatly to be sure, and your money is save it to a bank, then if you have an emergency you have a money saved.
If you think your money is safe in the bank you may be in for a big surprise. Banks are insured only up to a certain amount against bankruptcy, which happens more often then you think, and are obliged to take your money and give it to the government, which also happens more often then you think. Much safer in your cryptographically protected digital wallet.
Thanks for bringing this up, it's a very common belief that no matter how much money you have in a bank you'll always get it back since the governments back your funds, but what it is going to happen when the government is the one that is facing bankruptcy? They are not going to be able to protect your money especially when you need them the most, this has happened many times just in this decade and it will keep happening, this is why satoshi created bitcoin in the first place to help people to manage their own money and not depend on anyone else.
