 One of the biggest problems in crypto
today is the ability to safely give your crypto to your loved ones
when you die or are no longer able to control your finances.



One solution to this would be to add
this option to multisig wallets.  For example, the multisig wallet
would require one signature to authorize transactions.  Your
signature would always be valid and your designated beneficiary would
be a second signer.  Their signature would be valid to authorize
transactions after a designated date.  As long as you are alive you
would be able to keep pushing this valid date out so that you are the
only valid authorizing signer.  When you die their signature would be
valid as soon as the designated valid date has passed.



This solution would be dependent on a
date oracle.



This would also be useful for corporate
wallets if you added an expiration date.
