Chanpen Zhao: Exchanges must introduce the function of the will of cryptocurrency

The founder of Binance Chanpeng Zhao suggested crypto platforms to introduce a mechanism for the distribution of digital assets in the event of the death of the user. According to him, people should be able to indicate in advance to whom and in what shares their funds will be transferred. He writes about this RBC Crypto.

“This is a topic that is usually avoided, but the fact remains – people do not live forever. Each platform should provide for the will of the will so that the assets can be transferred to the appointed recipients in given proportions, ”Zhao wrote in X.

The reason for the comment was BINANCE updating on June 12, in which the function of emergency contact and inheritance appeared. The user may indicate the proxy who will receive a notification with prolonged inactivity and will be able to apply for access to assets.

One of the participants in the discussion called the function “really thoughtful”, noting that annually in the crypto industry, assets in the amount of over $ 1 billion remain unclaimed. Others emphasized that in the Web3 field it is important to provide the possibility of transferring not only tokens, but also digital heritage – accounts, content and influence in the community.
