At the D.C. Blockchain Summit, Vault12 today announced Version 2.8 of Vault12 Guard, bringing real-time wallet portfolio balances and transaction history directly into its crypto inheritance vault. For the first time, Vault owners can see exactly what’s in their wallets — and confirm that every digital asset is accounted for when it matters most.
Vault12 Guard is the pioneering solution for crypto inheritance. It ensures that digital asset information is stored securely and privately in a quantum-safe, decentralized app — with no cloud servers and no risk of loss from a single stolen or misplaced device. Should a phone be lost or stolen, the inheritance Vault can be fully reconstructed. Beneficiaries receive access to assets at the appropriate time, ensuring that digital wealth is preserved for future generations. Vault owners maintain control through social recovery Guardians — trusted individuals or dedicated devices that protect access to assets on the owner’s behalf.
Key capabilities in Version 2.8:
- Wallet portfolio support: View balances, transaction history, and quick actions for every coin in a wallet — all in one place.
- Fiat currency display: Wallet balances now appear in the fiat currency of the owner’s choice.
- Smarter receive addresses: The app automatically selects the correct Bitcoin address type for better compatibility.
- Electrum wallet support: Expanded seed phrase support, with all major Bitcoin address formats working out of the box.
- Blockchain explorer integration: Transactions and addresses link directly to blockchain explorers for full on-chain transparency.
