According to FinanceFeeds, self-custody wallet company Kresus has launched Kresus Inheritance, allowing users to create inheritance plans for crypto assets without sharing private keys or having Kresus custody user assets. The service is built into the Kresus wallet, where users can designate beneficiaries who can only access the portfolio after a set inactivity period. Kresus stated that approximately 55 million adults in the U.S. hold cryptocurrencies, and 89% of crypto investors worry about asset disposition after death.

The key point is that Kresus does not custody assets; otherwise, it would revert to the old centralized path.

Wait for actual testing; the inheritance scenario is complex, and the legal recognition of wills still remains to be seen.

Inherit without sharing private keys? Curious about the technical path.

It's quite convenient to have it in the built-in wallet, no need to look for a third party.

Finally, someone addressed this pain point. It's not unreasonable for 89% of people to be worried.
