Hello, don’t know much about the bitcoins. My son recently passed and had what I’m told to be are wallets. How do I get in them to sell the bitcoins? Thank you.
If you’ve got a list of 12 or 24 words. DO NOT give them to anyone, take a picture or put them in sight of a camera. Don’t even read them aloud. I know that sounds a bit extreme but it’s better to be safe than sorry.

Also don’t trust anyone in your inbox. I think there are bitcoin focused lawyers now that can give you professional help.

Hiya mate,
This is a difficult one, 1st off, don’t respond to ANY messages…
Get a lawyer whom you can trust.
Also, now isn’t the best time to sell. Even though I don’t know your finances, you should definitely do your research into Bitcoin before selling.

dont trust anyone sending you message or dm here offering help, best way is to ask around in family and see if anyone is into crypto in younger generation, if yes, tell them details and let them recover the crypto for you.
else find a lawyer who deals in inheritance and crypto, they can help you out.
quicknote: all bitcoin wallets are associated with a seed phrase [12 words of 24 words], this is like password and there is no username, dont let anyone take a photo of these words if your son has written them down somewhere, dont post anywhere, dont put online in any tool which promises to help you. take the seed phrase and store it somewhere in a lockbox or safe
