I love the Bitkey folks and it’s great idea, but the challenge I found trying to onboard a noob to the inheritance function of Bitkey is that they need another physical Bitkey hardware wallet. Versus an inheritor in Casa doesn’t need a hww. Both have tradeoffs, and Bitkey is likely more resilient by also having a hww containing a copy of the inheritance key. But for a noob I personally prioritize UX because otherwise I find noobs just give up.
For whatever reasons I have found noobs are SUPER intimidated by having to hang onto a hww. Stinks but is just my experience with friends and family.
