# Will-executor service list
|
|
|
|
Will-executors are the online servers that store your signed inheritance transaction and broadcast it to the Bitcoin nodes on the delivery date.
|
|
|
|
The service list window opens from the Electrum menu: `Tools → Will-executor`. It shows the official list of will-executor servers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can modify the list: add a server manually or import a list of servers (found on the bitcointalk.org forum or the official BAL website).
|
|
|
|
## Window commands
|
|
|
|
| Command | Function |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| **Ping** | Checks which servers in the list are online (green dot = active) |
|
|
| **Import** | Imports a will-executor list other than the default |
|
|
| **Export** | Exports your list — useful for moving to another Electrum installation with BAL |
|
|
| **Add** | Adds a will-executor server manually |
|
|
|
|
## List columns
|
|
|
|
| Column | Meaning |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| URL | Address of the will-executor |
|
|
| Base Fee | Commission/reward for the will-executor (see below) |
|
|
| Info | Server description or website link |
|
|
| Default Address | Bitcoin address where the base fee will be sent |
|
|
| S | Server status (green dot = online) |
|
|
|
|
## Right-click menu on a server row
|
|
|
|
1. **Select** — adds the green check mark; this will-executor will be used in your inheritance.
|
|
2. **Edit** — edits the relevant column field.
|
|
3. **Ping** — verifies the server is online.
|
|
4. **Delete** — removes the server from the list.
|
|
|
|
## How the base fee works
|
|
|
|
The base fee rewards the will-executor for the cost of keeping the server online. The will-executor earns it **only on the inheritance date**, and **only if it is the first** to send the transaction to the nodes — creating competition among will-executors.
|
|
|
|
Example: if you set up an inheritance that happens in 4 years, the will-executor earns the fee only in 4 years.
|
|
|
|
## Privacy
|
|
|
|
Transactions pushed to will-executor servers are stored there but are **not publicly accessible**. From your BAL plugin you can verify at any time that your transaction is stored: right-click it in the WILL tab → **Check** (status becomes `Checked`).
