Security issues are a nightmare with this.

If you put you savings your money in BTC you can't sleep at night knowing your money is safe unlike having it in the bank, if it gets hacked they replace the money.

Giving time and the right genius hacker even the most sophisticated security measures can be hacked.

Yes what if one dies with all this high tech security in place, surviving relatives won't be able to access the money.

This is complete nonsense.

You rent yourself a security box in a bank, and leave all your access details in there. And in your will, you give (whoever you want) access to that.

Stop spreading FUD that bitcoins are inherently impossible to keep secure.
What if bank gets blown up/shut down/robbed?

Keep a 2nd copy with your attorney / solicitor.

What if your solicitor decides to run of with say your 450 BTC.

Umm... the idea of solicitors are they are a trusted entity. That's how they stay in business, and would be disbarred / have legal charges brought against them if they ran off with anything.

I'm so sick of this thread. People trust online wallets who they don't have a clue is running, yet when I suggest banks and solicitors, the banks are going to blow up and the solicitors are going to run off with all your coins.

No more suggestions from me. Take care of your own coins, please Smiley
Pretty sure NONE of us suggested online wallets....
