Hypothetically, if one were to outlive all your family and die without need of care, there could be an estate worth of crypto that a dying person would have no particular target for.

For a moment let us imagine such a person who has a published literary work. A blog and some books at least. They would like for at least some portion of their dying hodl stack to go to the person who pays the most attention to their life's work out of everyone in the next 50 years.

You want 'em to puzzle over your life's output and ideally maybe future-timelocked encrypted private diaries, and whoever solves the puzzle gets the bitcoin.

Like a sort of Ready Player One situation, with people competing to solve the puzzles, but just for some blogger loser who never got any followers but did luck into some bitcoin that might be worth even more 50 years later.

Imagine also that you aren't actually any good at making puzzles let alone cryptography.

Anyone wanna suggest things for a story about that? Or for instructions to an executor or whatever?
