> What's wrong, if your wealth distilled to the limits of abstraction dies with you?

What do you mean, what's wrong? Everything is wrong.

If I have children, I absolutely want them to inherit everything I own when I die. I want them to use it all to reach even further than I have and be more successful and richer than I was. This is how wealth is built across generations.

I don't want my money to be forever lost in the unimaginably large cryptographic search space. I certainly don't want my money to go to anyone other than my children, especially the government.



Why don't you give them your stuff now?


Many do but even then you have to drip feed it extremely slowly.


I don't have children yet.


Taxes.
