sucesorio

Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, and other cryptoassets may have economic value and form part of the deceased’s estate.
So far, it seems straightforward: there is an asset, and it is reported in the probate proceedings.
But a problem arises that doesn’t come up in the same way with a house, a car, or a bank account: we can’t confuse identifying the asset with handing over control of it.
And that difference is enormous.
An Argentine court expressly includes cryptoassets among its requirements for probate proceedings. It requests disclosure of the type and amount, wallet, broker or exchange, and public key, and, in particular, submission of the private key in a sealed envelope to be kept by the court clerk’s office.
