Social Recovery Template / Inheritance
Description
Social recovery keeps you in full and exclusive control of your bitcoin while enabling a recovery path in case you lose your keys. After a predefined number of months set by the user, an m of n multisig of trusted co-signers is able to move the user funds
Between 20%-25% of all bitcoin has been lost forever by owners who lost their keys. This security feature helps you have a plan B, leveraging trusted connections like friends, family, or colleagues to regain access to your Bitcoin
Vault Configuration Example
To initiate the spending of funds via social recovery in the multisig setup, it can be accomplished either by your designated signer or by following the social recovery path. However, this is only possible once the specified timelock duration has elapsed, and it requires the authorization of at least one out of your two designated signers for recovery. [either Thomas or Lee]
