Research on the Legal Issues of Inheritance of Virtual Property on the Internet

Although Article 127 of the Civil Code of China determines the scope of protection for network virtual property, there is a lack of specific norms and standards regarding the attribution of its rights, value assessment, and inheritance.This paper mainly discusses the problems related to the unclear attribution of the rights of network virtual property, the unsound legislative protection of virtual property, the conflict between the protection of personality rights and privacy rights in the process of inheritance, the difficulties of heirs in proving the inheritance of network virtual property, and the incomplete value assessment system.As a result, we then need to clarify the attribution of the rights of network virtual property, improve relevant legislation and justice, protect the inheritance rights and privacy rights of related persons in a balanced manner, effectively solve the problems of actual names of network accounts, and build a reasonable and perfect value assessment mechanism to solve the issues of network virtual property in inheritance.
