WYTYC began with a question: if I were to die tomorrow, or lose the capacity to manage my own affairs, holding a meaningful balance of cryptocurrency, what would actually happen to it?
The honest answer is usually that it gets lost. Either nobody finds the keys, or nobody knows the legal instrument under which the keys can be lawfully touched. Both happen, daily, and the sums involved are no longer small.
The Property (Digital Assets etc.) Act 2025 has now made that a duty rather than a courtesy. Across England and Wales, digital assets are property; personal representatives are liable for them, and the tools to discharge that duty in any serious form for firms do not yet exist.
We are quietly building them. WYTYC custodies nothing. We hold a single key within a quorum, and the architecture makes it impossible for us to act alone. What we give private client firms is the means to act, and the audit trail to defend the action.
WYTYC is led by a founder with several years building in this space, with a board that includes a qualified accountant of forty years' standing. If your firm is looking at the same question, please get in touch.
The mark
Custody you don't have to hold. Legacy you don't have to lose.
A key, with a tree of life inside it. The key is custody, held in trust and turned only on the terms set when the vault was made. The tree is the legacy that passes through it. WYTYC sits between them.
