- You pick a handful of trusted contacts (friends/family).
- If something happens and you can’t access your wallet, they can request access.
- There’s a wait period (a few days?)—during that time, you could approve or deny. If you do nothing, access is automatically granted.
- Ideally, it would preserve maximum security, so your keys aren’t exposed unnecessarily, but the funds are accessible to your trusted people.
