deceased son

Wed Jun 21, 2017 9:39 pm

My son had a Bitcoin account when he died unexpectedly at 24 years old last August. . I do not know how to access his account because I don't have his password or user name. Can anyone give me some guidance about how to get into his account? Thank you

We are very sorry to hear about your son's death, that must be hard.
Unfortunately without the wallet password you probably won't be able to recover the bitcoins he had. Do you know what bitcoin wallet he was using?

Sorry for your loss. The first step would be to figure out what type of wallet client he had. Did he use Bitcoin core, electrum, blockchain.info or something else entirely? Do you have access to his computer.
