Hello,  my brother passed away last week. Yesterday I heard he had purchased bitcoin a long time ago. What do I need to do to be able to sell his bitcoin as part of his estate.  I have no bitcoin wallet app from him.  Don’t know password. There is no will, although I can obtain an attorney who can legally appoint me as administrator of the estate. He lived in Miami, Florida. Thank you for any help
How do you know this? is there one of your brother friends who knows that he have bitcoin? Make sure first that your brother has bitcoin before, after that you can try to get bitcoin your brother back, even though it will be difficult. Usually people who are new to bitcoin then they buy bitcoin they will store everything about their wallet will be stored on the PC or on his smartphone.
In case if he bought bitcoin at the early stages then he might not save it properly because at that time the bitcoin was very cheaper and no one thought it could reach this level.But it is important to know how OP knows he got the bitcoins then only we may get some suggestions that actually works.But if you can't find any credentials for login then it will be untouched forever.

Deep condolences for your brother!😢
