How does the average person solve the "$5 wrench problem" / prevent rubber-hose cryptanalysis? What is the easiest way to do a multi-signature or multi-factor set-up? Could timelocks and smart contract solutions be used for inheritance issues? The technology and educational resources around key management need to mature first. There needs to be a pragmatic balance between legal and technical plans, with human-based processes and controls. Take an entrepreneurial perspective and you will help overcome the barriers to adoption!

Chapters
0:00 My wife and I are currently working on a multi-signature setup to avoid the '$5 wrench problem,' but also make it available for our potential heirs. We have been thinking a lot and the setup is almost overwhelming; it feels like our heirs will be going on a Robert Langdon treasure hunt to access our savings, and also keep it secure while we are still alive. What would you suggest for people trying to set these up?
4:43 Can you give us some of your thoughts on rubber-hose cryptanalysis?
7:22 Inheritance problems and possible multi-sig solutions
14:04 One of the systemic problems that I see, that occurs to me every day while holding cryptocurrencies, is caring for my family and the inheritance issue, which is a big deal. We have no idea what will happen to our coins if there is forking or nation state attacks. What happens at the end of our generation? What do we need to start thinking about, at this time, to secure these assets, in a multi-generational effort?
These questions are from the September and October Patreon Q&A sessions, the HoshoCon event, and the Seattle 'Internet of Money' tour event, which took place on September 29th, October 27th, October 11th, and November 10th 2018 respectively.
