What Happens If Evoke Goes Away? (Your Bitcoin Is Safe)
This is one of the most important questions to ask any Bitcoin service provider, and we're glad you're asking it. The short answer: your Bitcoin remains fully accessible to you, regardless of what happens to Evoke.
If you use Evoke Vault
You hold two of the three multisig keys. That's all you need to move your Bitcoin. Because Evoke is built on open-source Caravan, you can reconstruct your wallet using freely available tools and sign transactions with your two keys — without any involvement from Evoke.
In this scenario, you would:
- Download Caravan or a compatible multisig tool
- Import your wallet configuration (stored in your Evoke account — we recommend downloading a backup periodically)
- Connect your two hardware wallets
- Sign and broadcast a transaction moving funds to a new wallet
This process is fully documented in our help center and in Caravan's public documentation. Any competent Bitcoin user could guide you through it.
If you use Evoke Inheritance only
Your Digital Asset Schedule is a standalone document that you download and store. It does not depend on Evoke's servers to function. Your inheritance plan, heir assignments, and recovery instructions all exist independently of the Evoke platform.
Your only loss would be the liveness check service — you'd need to implement this manually through another means if you wanted the same protection.
Our commitment
We design every part of Evoke with this scenario in mind. You should never be dependent on our continued existence to access your Bitcoin or execute your inheritance plan. This is why we chose a non-custodial architecture and open-source tooling from the start.
Back up your wallet config: We recommend downloading your wallet configuration file periodically and storing it alongside your seed phrase backups. This ensures you have everything you need to reconstruct your wallet independently.
