How CryptoLegacy works
The owner defines the rules in advance. Assets stay under owner control until transfer or recovery conditions are met.

Owner-defined rules
The owner defines the rules in advance. No one gets open control. Each path opens only when its conditions are met.
Who can act
Beneficiaries and guardians are set in advance. Separate recovery addresses are authorized for recovery. None of them become co-owners or custodians.
When they can act
No path is open by default. Transfer or recovery opens only when its conditions are met.
What they can do
Guardians help open governed paths. Beneficiaries claim after distribution. Recovery addresses complete recovery under recovery rules.
Transfer path
Transfer is governed, not automatic. Timeout expiry or guardian confirmations can open the path, but challenge still gates distribution and claim.
Path opens under predefined conditions
The owner defines the transfer path in advance. Assets stay under owner control until those conditions are met.
Challenge comes before distribution
Once the path opens, a challenge period begins. It is the gate before distribution and the last point where the process can still be stopped.
Assets move into the contract, then beneficiaries claim
If the challenge completes, designated assets move into the contract. Beneficiaries then claim under the transfer rules.
During Distribution, approved plugins can extend execution on contract-held assets.
Approved plugins
Enabled in advance, or later if the setup allows it.
Allowed actions
Swap, stake, lend, or manage positions where allowed.
Thresholded execution
Extra actions still follow configured confirmations.
Recovery path
Recovery handles broken access, not beneficiary transfer. Guardians can help move assets into the contract, and authorized recovery addresses can later withdraw under recovery rules.
Path opens under recovery conditions
Recovery is for broken access, not ordinary transfer. It opens only when recovery conditions are met.
Support does not equal ownership
Guardians may help move assets into the contract. They do not become beneficiaries or gain arbitrary control.
Recovery follows its own governed path
Once recovery is available, authorized recovery addresses can withdraw to a new address under recovery rules. Finalized transfer claims are not reversed.
What the system does not do
CryptoLegacy does not move assets during normal operation, grant open-ended control to invited roles, or turn setup into early custody transfer. All later actions remain owner-defined.

Nothing changes. Your assets stay under your control. Self-custody does not define what happens if you cannot act.
Yes. During normal operation, your assets stay fully in your wallet. The contract holds permissions, not funds. It only defines what may happen if you cannot act.
Multisig requires real-time coordination. Key sharing exposes secrets. CryptoLegacy defines rules in advance — no one needs to hold your keys or coordinate at the right moment.
