Services
Expert help, built around you
From your first wallet to a complete inheritance plan for your family. Every service is one on one with a veteran Bitcoiner, at your pace, on your terms.
01 · Our flagship service
Bitcoin Inheritance, with the Citadel Vault
Your Bitcoin should outlast you. We design your inheritance plan with you and your heirs, then secure it on the Citadel Vault, an offline inheritance computer built so your family can recover everything without you, and without trusting anyone else.
Plan
Develop a secure self-custody plan
Together we list every wallet, key and digital asset, decide who inherits what, and choose where each piece of the plan will live.
Secure
Lock assets in the Vault
Your secrets are encrypted on the Citadel Vault. Your Vault Key is split across Vault Cards (2 of 3), so no single card, place or person can open it alone.
Distribute
Geographic distribution
Following the Citadel Vault inheritance protocols, Vault Cards and encrypted backups go to separate secure locations: a safe deposit box, a home safe, your attorney, trusted family.
Pass on
Prepare your heirs
We walk your heirs through recovery while you are here to answer questions, and leave them a printed guide for the day they need it.

- One on one planning sessions for you and your heirs
- Citadel Vault setup and Vault Card programming, verified
- A personal inheritance and secret management plan
- Geographic distribution plan for cards and backups

Protecting Yourself After a Data Leak
Hardware wallet makers and exchanges have leaked the names and home addresses of their customers. Leaked data cannot be pulled back, but you can make sure it never leads anyone to your Bitcoin. In private sessions, you learn how to:
01
Distribute your digital assets geographically
Move hardware wallets and encrypted backups out of one place, following the Citadel Vault inheritance protocols, so no single location holds enough to matter.
02
Remove your data from the internet
Take your home address off people search sites and public listings, and use Google's removal tools for results and images about you.
03
Check and remove your data from brokers
Find which data brokers and people search sites list you, remove yourself with our help, and check again as they re-list.
04
Stop adding to the leak
Mail drops for deliveries, email aliases, separate phone numbers, a credit freeze and a leak response plan, so new purchases stop pointing to you.
05
Protect your digital assets
Encrypt every secret, test your recovery and keep your plan quiet, so a leaked address is a dead end.
Your data was in a leak? Start with a consultation. We will look at what was exposed and build your plan from there.

Market to Bitcoiners
Listings, promotions, loyalty ideas and outreach that speak to Bitcoin minded customers.

Treasury policy
Holding Bitcoin on the balance sheet: who approves, how much stays liquid, what gets recorded and what happens if a key person is away.

The entity, operating agreement and tax questions to settle with your advisors before the business holds or accepts Bitcoin.
06
Borrowing against Bitcoin
Liquidation, lender, custody and tax risks, and an honest look at whether borrowing fits your business at all.
