A recent court decision highlighted how social-media profiles, email accounts and crypto wallets are now recognized as estate-planning assets—yet most wills still don’t address them.

Key takeaways:

• How courts treat digital assets in estate matters

• The gap between traditional wills and online property

• Why you need explicit instructions for each platform

• How Legacy Projector’s generator streamlines the process

  
  Estate planning has long focused on bank accounts, real estate and personal property. But in today’s world, your digital life—from family photo albums in the cloud to cryptocurrency wallets—carries equal importance. A recent ruling stressed that judges will treat these just like other assets, but only if your will names them explicitly.

That’s where a Digital Will comes in. Legacy Projector’s generator walks you step-by-step through:

• Listing every online account (social, financial, gaming, crypto).

• Deciding who gets access—or whether the account should be closed.

• Recording encryption keys, private-key storage and password vault details.

• Drafting the legal addendum so your executor has clear authority under local law.

Why standard wills fall short:

1. Ambiguity. “All digital assets” is too vague for platforms’ policies.

2. Access challenges. If passwords aren’t stored properly, even trusted heirs may be locked out.

3. Regulatory hurdles. Services vary—some require court orders, others honor designated “legacy contacts.”

By generating a digital-specific codicil, you ensure your wishes are honored swiftly and securely. Don’t let today’s online life become tomorrow’s unwieldy legal mess.
