- A Death Verification Oracle using two independent government sources and notarized affidavits to trigger smart contracts;
- A Dynamic Beneficiary Registry that allows flexible, on-chain updates to beneficiary designations;
- Built-in Emergency Stop Mechanisms enabling family members, trustees, and courts to pause execution during disputes;
- Blockchain-native, encrypted Identity Tokens for secure access control;
- Immutable Compliance Logging for regulatory transparency and legal auditability.
