Why It Matters

By enabling secure, decentralized recovery of lost private keys, Toro addresses a major barrier to crypto adoption and could unlock significant stranded value, bolstering user confidence in decentralized finance and inheritance use cases.

Summary

Kamil Mamin, founder of Toro, unveiled a non-custodial “digital will” — a smart-contract-based recovery tool designed to help users reclaim lost crypto assets without sharing mnemonics or handing over private keys. Toro’s interface guides users through three simple steps: select assets to protect, name beneficiaries, and set recovery triggers, enabling asset recovery even if Toro ceases to operate. Mamin cites estimates that roughly 30% of all Bitcoin is irretrievably lost and positions Toro as a practical solution to that systemic vulnerability. He frames the product as a user-friendly, blockchain-native way to reduce permanent asset loss in Web3.
