What Perpetua is
Perpetua is software: a Solana program and a website that helps you use it. You use it to approve the program to deliver assets from your wallet to wallets you choose if you stop checking in. Perpetua is not a bank, trustee, executor, custodian, law firm or financial adviser, and it does not provide legal, tax or estate-planning advice.
Your responsibilities
- You are responsible for the wallets, heirs, shares, assets and intervals you choose, and for checking in on time. A switch executes on the schedule you set, whatever your circumstances.
- You must make sure the heir addresses are correct and controlled by the people you intend. Delivered assets cannot be recovered.
- You are responsible for whether using Perpetua is lawful where you live, and for any tax or legal effect of transfers it makes.
- A switch does not replace a will or other estate documents. Use it alongside a proper estate plan.
How the program behaves
The program's behaviour is defined by its code at the address shown on the Security page. Fees are 0.05 SOL to set up a Free-tier switch and 0.5% of assets delivered at execution, both taken by the program. Execution is permissionless: anyone may run it once a switch is executable. Assets that cannot be delivered, for example because an approval was changed or an account was closed, are skipped.
Risks
- Smart contracts can contain bugs. The program has not been audited by a third party at the time of writing; see the Security page for its current status.
- Blockchains, RPC providers, wallets, storage networks and our services can fail, be delayed or change. Reminders are a courtesy and may not arrive.
- Token values change. Tokens may become worthless or untransferable through actions of their issuers.
- Anyone who controls your wallet can change or cancel your switch, and anyone who controls an heir's wallet receives that heir's share.
