Problems of the formation of hereditary mass in the digital age

With the digitalization of society and the economy, civil turnover meets with all new types of objects: digital rights, virtual money, virtual objects, accounts, etc. The essence of such objects is not fully defined from the point of view, and the regulatory provisions contained in the legislation raise questions of law enforcement. The transfer of such objects by inheritance is accompanied by a number of problems: the lack of reliable information about the existence of such objects, the inability to establish ownership of the testator, difficulties in accessing such objects. This paper analyzes the essence of digital objects, the possibility of their legal succession, and the procedural aspects of their possible inheritance. The presented conclusions can be used to form a theoretical basis for further improvement of legislative regulation.
