Deadhand is the open-source, sovereign standard for digital inheritance. We build trustless, non-custodial infrastructure that allows users to pass down cryptocurrency and digital assets without giving up private keys or relying on third-party custodians.
The protocol utilizes Shamir's Secret Sharing (SSS) and a cryptographic "Dead
Man's Switch." If a user fails to verify their proof-of-life after a designated period, the protocol automatically executes a recovery plan, granting designated heirs access to the necessary key shards to reconstruct the wallet.
Key Features:
Zero Custody: We never hold user keys. Zero Knowledge: The protocol does not know the asset amount or location. Sovereign: Eliminates the need for estate lawyers or centralized vaults. Deadhand addresses the "Void Problem"—the estimated $500B+ in digital assets lost permanently due to lost keys and deceased holders.
