what is the biggest source of anxiety in your cold storage setup
My biggest anxiety in my self-custody setup is figuring out a secure and reliable method to share my seed phrase or facilitate the transfer of BTC to my family in case something happens to me. Striking the right balance between keeping my keys secure and ensuring that trusted family members can access them when needed may be the biggest pain point.

Do you worry more about the transfer method (making sure they get keys, descriptors, wallet info) or do you worry that they will be unable to figure out how to successfully recover the wallet?

I worry both sides equally. Getting the keys and necessary info to them securely without risking exposure is one massive hurdle. Secondly, even with the info, they might face a steep learning curve with recovery, wallet software, and understanding UTXOs or whatever else, potentially messing it up under duress.

Bitkey is the easiest for non Bitcoiners. Multi-sig, but great UX for non tech-savvy people. The only product I could recommend to the normies in my life and feel confident they wouldn't screw up.
It has Bitkey Inheritance built in.
