The six-month waiting period is designed to give the benefactor (the wallet owner) enough time to learn about and respond to an unauthorized or fraudulent inheritance claim.
During this period, the benefactor will receive regular notifications about the claim. If the claim was made in error or without their consent, they’ll have the opportunity to cancel it.
If no action is taken to cancel the claim within the six months, the inheritance claim is considered valid, and the beneficiary will be allowed to proceed with transferring the funds to their Bitkey wallet.
