Crypto inheritance · early prototype

Your DNA isthe key.

Seed phrases die with their owners. DNA Recover makes sure your crypto reaches your family instead — no passwords to pass on, no custodian holding your keys. Your heirs prove who they are with their DNA.

Lost keys are forever.

An estimated 3 to 4 million bitcoin are believed to be permanently lost (Chainalysis, 2020). Much of it belonged to people who simply never told anyone how to reach it.

It happens more often than anyone expects: an accident or a sudden illness, and years of savings are locked behind a seed phrase nobody else knew. The family can even see the assets on-chain — but has no way to reach them. Nobody should lose their inheritance to a forgotten password.

How it works

Five steps. You do the first three once — the protocol handles the rest.

  1. 01

    Create your vault

    Connect your Ledger and open a smart-contract vault. You stay the only owner — nothing moves without your signature while you are alive.

  2. 02

    Deposit your DNA

    Give a reference sample at a partner lab. Only a sealed cryptographic commitment is recorded on-chain; the genetic data itself never leaves the lab.

  3. 03

    Set up heir slots

    Choose how many heirs, what share each one gets and how many labs (3 to 10) must verify them. Slots start empty: no names, no addresses — DNA decides.

  4. 04

    Check in every 150 days

    We remind you by email and push. One signature from your Ledger resets the clock. Any regular transaction from the vault counts too.

  5. 05

    If you go silent, family claims

    After 100 days without a check-in, your heirs can claim. They give a sample to partner labs; once every lab in your package confirms a direct parent–child bond, their address fills the slot and funds are sent.

// 02

The clock

A single signature from you stops the process at any point before funds move.

  1. Day 0Check-inYou sign. The clock resets.
  2. Day 150ReminderCheck-in due. Reminders on every channel.
  3. Day 250Claims openNo answer. Heirs can start DNA verification.
  4. After 100% matchDistributionVerified heirs receive their share on-chain.

// 03

Heir slots

No names, no documents. Anyone who proves a direct parent–child DNA bond with you — your child or your parent — can fill a slot.

Step 1

Choose the slots

e.g. 2 slots

Decide how many people should inherit. Every slot starts empty.

Step 2

Set the shares

e.g. 50% / 50%

Decide what share of the vault each slot receives.

Step 3

DNA fills them

100% lab agreement

The first people to prove the bond fill the slots and receive their share. Nothing else is asked.

// 04

Every lab. One truth.

You choose your verification package: from 3 to 10 independent partner labs around the world. Every heir sample is split between them; each lab compares it with your sealed reference and signs its result. The protocol accepts a relationship only on a 100% match — every lab, without exception.

  • No single lab can approve an heir on its own.
  • Labs sign results cryptographically — the vault verifies the signatures itself.
  • A single disagreeing lab freezes the claim for review. Nothing is paid out on doubt.

Built so no one has to trust us

01

Non-custodial

Assets sit in your own smart-contract vault. We never hold keys and cannot move your funds.

02

No DNA on-chain

Only hashes and lab signatures are published. Genetic data stays with the accredited labs.

03

You can always stop it

Missed a check-in because you were travelling or ill? Any signature from you cancels the process.

04

Open source

The contracts will be public and audited before mainnet. Anyone can verify the rules.

// 06

Pay while you live — or only when it works

A one-time setup, an optional yearly plan, and a success fee the vault takes automatically at unlock. Better paid than locked forever.

Setup

A one-time fee for your profile and sealing your DNA commitment on-chain, paid in crypto. Your reference DNA test is paid by card directly to the lab. Prices announced with our first partner labs.

Heir tests

Heirs pay the lab tests by card when they claim. After a 100% match, the vault reimburses them in full before distributing.

Never locked

Missed a yearly payment? Your vault simply moves to Essential. A plan never stops your inheritance.

Paid in crypto

Setup and plans are paid in stablecoins or ETH. The success fee is taken by the contract itself — transparent and on-chain.

Partner program

Are you a DNA lab?

We are building a global network of accredited genetic testing laboratories to act as the verification layer of the protocol.

  • Paid per verification, settled on-chain
  • Simple integration — sign results with a key you control
  • Standard kinship testing, no new lab procedures

Questions

Which assets are supported?

The prototype runs on EVM networks (Ethereum and L2s): ETH, ERC-20 tokens and wrapped BTC. Native Bitcoin support is planned.

What if I lose my Ledger or end up in hospital?

You have 150 days between check-ins plus a 100-day grace period — over eight months in total. A replacement Ledger restored from your seed can sign a check-in, and any signature from you cancels a claim before funds move.

Who counts as an heir?

Anyone who proves a direct parent–child DNA bond with you: your child or your parent. No names, no documents, no legal status — DNA is the key. We use parent–child because it is the one relationship a DNA test proves with near certainty.

Why do you need my DNA in advance?

A kinship test compares two samples. Depositing your reference while you are alive means your heirs never depend on obtaining your sample later.

How many labs verify an heir?

You decide when you set up the vault: at least 3, up to 10 depending on your plan. More labs cost more but make fraud even harder. Whatever you choose, every single lab must confirm the match — 100%, no majority vote.

Can someone fake a sample?

Heir samples are collected in person at a partner lab with identity checks, and the heir’s address is bound to the sample at collection. Multiple independent labs must agree before anything happens.

Is this live?

Not yet. We are building the prototype on testnet and onboarding partner labs. Join the waitlist to hear first.
