Estate & Asset Protection Attorney, Victoria Collier highlights the importance of having a well thought out recovery plan for anyone with cryptocurrency assets since no one knows what could happen.

DECATUR, GA, April 1, 2019: Victoria L. Collier, founder of The Estate & Asset Protection Law Firm, has posted a new blog on her law firm’s website entitled “Someone Failed Cryptocurrency Asset Protection 101.” Ms. Collier emphasizes the importance of having a recovery plan as part of any asset protection plan.

Collier states, “As an asset protection attorney I’m always on the lookout for articles about cryptocurrency.” She continues, “This one made me catch my breath when I read, “A cryptocurrency exchange in Canada has lost control of at least $137 million of its customers’ assets following the sudden death of its founder, who was the only person known to have access to the offline wallet that stored the digital coins.” “I tell my clients constantly that they must have a plan in place in just such an event,” writes Collier, adding, “You never know what will happen.”

According to Collier, “The absolutely most crucial first order of business when you have cryptocurrencies is to have a recovery plan.” She emphasizes, “Whether you use a hot wallet or a cold wallet, someone besides the owner of the account must know how to gain access.”
