Hey, so what if you freeze yourself? And then there is technology to bring you back from the dead hundred years later.
Is there any good way to keep some bitcoin on you for this situation?
I plan on giving/inhriting most of my btc to and kids I might have in the future, but.... butttt.... what if I froze myself, kept some btc.
Is there any good idea how I keep my private keys with me? There is no gurantee I would remember a seed phrase in my head when I woke up. Might not remember much of anything. Idk no one knows.

but I'm pretty sure 100 years from now btc will be tens of millions if not more per coin, so even just 0.1btc would prob make you a millionaire.
If... lets say, you kept it in a steel container with instructions, any way to make sure the people freezing you dont just take it? Or if they dont, what if you wake up, and you dont realize what you have? Someone could easily take it from you then. Maybe I could put on on stainless steel, like a thin sheet, scratch the seed phrase in, then have it shoved in my arm or leg and stitch it up, then die, wake up. Maybe have some sort of instructions that would only make sense to me in the event i forget about it...

or..... maybe like... I put it in an awkward place in my arm or leg so it's guaranteed to give me some major issues and will need removed so it will remind me. like if i forget  my memories, I wake up, ouch my leg kinda hurts when i walk. go to doc, doc x rays and is like you got some random metal in your leg wtf lets remove it. on th metal, rolled up, it says "my name" or whatever to open only. no one else. then has instructions how to retrieve the btc?

Assuming I dont have great great grand kids who want to help their ancestor in some way who show up on my revival?

All of course assuming it is possible for humans to revive the dead in the future. idk. wouldnt it be funny, there is an afterlife, and you tell people there how you had bitcoin and if it is worth a bunch telling everyone how if you were alive you would be rich, then suddenly you get sucked out of the afterlife into your body? Maybe it takes 1000 years later, and 1 bitcoin is a trillion dollars lol. but then it would suck if you wake up and someone performs operation on you in the process of waking you up and sees and takes it? Man... too bad things cant just be literally etched into the brain so there can be no possibility of forgetting it or something.

Idk, anyone have any ideas?
do any post death trusts exist? Like go to a bank and be like hey, can I rent out the safe deposit box for the next 100 years?
THen its your luck it's 101 years when you revive and the bank threw out your seed phrase lol
