The State is waiting for you to fail

If you die today, your hardware wallet is a paperweight.

Your family doesn't understand your security setup. If they go to a lawyer, probate court steps in, freezes the estate, and takes a 30% cut. You hold crypto because you demand sovereignty. True sovereignty means dictating exactly what happens to your money after you're gone—without asking a judge for permission.

The Fail-Safe System

We use Shamir’s Secret Sharing, an industry-standard protocol that splits your "emergency access" into three unique pieces. We handle the heavy cryptography; you just keep the keys.

We split the key. You keep a piece. Your family keeps a piece. The state gets nothing.

No intermediaries. No lawyers. Pure cryptographic inevitability.

What's In It For You: Sleep peacefully. You no longer need to store your raw seed phrase. Combine your Shard A with your beneficiary's Shard B to recover instantly. You win the ultimate game against the fiat system.
Shard A — You possess the master key.
Shard B — Your beneficiary holds the second piece.
Shard C — Deadhand guards the safety net.

Corporate Doctrine

Uncompromising Sovereignty.

We do not build software. We engineer cryptographic inevitability. Deadhand is an institutional defense contractor for the sovereign individual.

Mission

To eliminate single points of failure in intergenerational wealth transfer. We architect zero-trust protocols that ensure capital survives its creator, bypassing intermediaries, jurisdictions, and state apparatuses.

Vision

A world where digital ownership is absolute and inheritance is a mathematical certainty, not a legal privilege. We envision a post-probate future governed strictly by cryptographic consensus.

Core Tenets

AGPL Open Source

Our code is fully transparent. Inspect it, compile it, fork it. No weird things running behind your back.

0 Forced Updates

We have a zero forced-update policy. The binary you download is yours forever. No secret over-the-air patches.

Trust Math, Not Men

Human intermediaries are vulnerabilities. We rely exclusively on provable cryptography.

Absolute Privacy

We collect zero metadata. We operate with zero-knowledge. Your legacy is opaque by design.

Institutional Grade

We build for the most paranoid threat models. No compromises, no backdoors, no exceptions.

Sovereign Right

Your wealth is your sovereign domain. How you pass it on is a fundamental human right.

Questions & Verification

Without a plan, your crypto is lost forever. Deadhand uses Shamir's Secret Sharing to split your seed phrase into 3 shards. If you stop checking in, your beneficiary receives the missing piece to recover your assets.

The core cryptography is 100% trustless. All sensitive key-splitting happens in your local environment, never touching our servers. We only hold Shard C, which is useless without Shard A or B.

The protocol is built on open standards (BIP-39 and SSS). If our servers ever went offline, you could use any standard offline utility like ssss-split to combine your shards. Your legacy is protected by math, not a company.

Multisig requires your beneficiaries to maintain active hardware wallets and understand operational security *before* you die. Deadhand requires nothing from them until it's time to recover. It's infinitely simpler for non-technical family members.

A safe deposit box requires a court order (probate) for your family to access after your death. The bank will freeze it, the state will inventory it, and lawyers will take their cut. Deadhand bypasses the state entirely.

An Eternal Sovereign Fuse. The Deadhand software is open-source and stays on your machine forever. The Fuse is what connects your local vault to the global heartbeat network. When a Fuse is in use, it is "occupied." If you delete your vault, the Fuse becomes de-occupied, allowing you to transfer it to a friend or another device. One payment. Infinite sovereignty.

Ditch the cloud, embrace privacy.
