A Real Example
You create a CryptoLegacy contract.
During setup, you:
define beneficiaries and transfer rules
approve specific wallets and tokens for future execution
intentionally allocate only a limited portion of your assets, not everything
add guardians to avoid long delays
add recovery as a safety fallback
CryptoLegacy governs a dedicated execution pool β assets you explicitly choose to cover situations where you cannot act.
Your remaining assets stay fully outside the system and remain under your direct control.
You continue using crypto normally and periodically update the activity timer.
Nothing happens. Your assets stay in your wallets.
A situation where you cannot act
You are traveling for work across regions with unstable or unavailable internet access.
Your primary device is lost or damaged. Backups are not immediately reachable.
For an extended period of time, you cannot:
access your wallets
sign transactions
cancel or update anything on-chain
You are safe, but completely unable to act.
At the same time, your family needs funds:
for regular living expenses
to handle an unexpected situation
without waiting weeks or months
No one has your private keys. No mnemonic fragments can be reconstructed. People who could help cannot coordinate or act on your behalf.
What the system does
CryptoLegacy detects that required activity has stopped and starts a waiting (Challenge) period.
Nothing is transferred yet.
If guardians are configured, they can act earlier so execution does not need to wait for the inactivity timer to complete.
This allows execution to begin even while the owner is temporarily unreachable.
Two possible outcomes
Outcome 1 β Access is restored
You regain access before execution is finalized.
Or a recovery address acts on your behalf.
In this case:
execution is canceled
guardian actions are reset
no assets are transferred
The dedicated execution pool remains untouched.
CryptoLegacy returns to normal operation.
Outcome 2 β Execution proceeds
If no one intervenes before the waiting period ends:
execution is allowed
only the pre-approved assets are transferred
distribution follows the rules you defined
Funds reach the intended recipients without reconstructing keys and without requiring coordination.
Your other assets remain unaffected.
The key point
CryptoLegacy does not assume that all assets should be governed by one mechanism.
It allows you to:
segment capital
define different risk profiles
limit execution scope intentionally
Nothing is decided at execution time.
The system does not ask why you were unavailable. It does not try to interpret intent or circumstances.
It checks only one thing:
Were the predefined on-chain conditions met or not?
CryptoLegacy executes exactly what you defined in advance.
