Video Summary
Do I need a separate Will for digital assets like social media accounts, crypto wallets, or online businesses? No, you do not. The Florida statutes provide for language to be used in Wills, which deals with digital assets. This was negotiated with the large Google and other digital asset platforms, and so you put this language in the Will that gives your executive the right to access these accounts and deal with them. Now, the exception is cryptocurrency, which number one is, that’s sort of like cash. There is no one to deal with, and so if you don’t have the wallet, you don’t have access. So, whoever does have the wallet, may have access to the cryptocurrency and so it does not work as far as that’s concerned with your will. And so, you would need to provide, make provision for your wallet number to be available upon your death to your executor. Otherwise, it may be lost forever.
