his wife had heard about Bitcoin in the mainstream media and the price rise and was pressuring him to cash it all out immediately or she would leave him.

If it had been mine before she arrived I'd tell her to go fuck herself. If it were 'our' money that would different. Even then someone like that would've told you the same when it hit one dollar. And after that they'd spend what little time left you had together berating you for giving in.

It would also be a completely different deal if we were under significant financial strain. Not addressing that if you have the means is selfish and stupid. If things are bobbing along just fine then it stays put.

And when you get your divorce Bitcoin is worth something so you're going to have to give whatever the court decides away. You can try to hide it. That might bite you extremely hard in the botty.

lol let's all be woman hating chauvanists..

What are you talking about. I love women, when they behave like women. When they don't, well, right there, show the *itch who's the boss. Always works. When it doesn't, time to look for a new woman.

You need to respect your wife and read. When you tie the knot in marriage, you think about how you can replenish the family budget. After all, the husband is responsible for his wife. It was just necessary to offer to live on the interest from investing in bitcoin, thereby saving both bitcoin and family.

His wife claimed that he was hiding most of his wealth and requested the judge to send the guy to prison. I don't know what happened in the end.. but that thread was quite old (probably from 2013-14).

Wow, imagine earning a money and being sued because we just want to save it for future purpose that's just stupid man. It's always money that become core of problem for most of families whether it's lacking money or having too much money I guess people are naturally really greedy and can't control themselves when they see something that could make their dreams come true.

I'm starting to think i made a mistake letting my wife know that i am into bitcoin, i have my real life job but i told her everything, since then its like i am been monitored lol, now my wife has blockfolio app on phone to track bitcoin price, i remember her asking me when i will sell, sigh

You shouldn't live like that. Sit down with your wife and make a financial plan that determines under what conditions you'll sell what. This is something that you can collaborate on and find a solution that makes both of you feel comfortable. Having a clear plan is the best way to avoid making irrational emotion driven decisions in the future and plus you can get out from under having this stupid Bitcoin thing hanging over your head.

Your marriage is worth more to you than some cryptocurrency, so act like it.

Address = Never Give to Wife = courts don't know jack

thats true.
actually, never tell the truth if your partner too money oriented. because she wont know and never know how is going on. but you can share if she understand about bitcoin and technology.

It's always like that, when you hit the jackpot it's either you're changing or people around you. some people might say that getting huge chunk of money won't bring trouble but it's actually not really true. There are many cases of people's life got destroyed because immediately gaining so much money and this story mentioned seems like what is in reddit if i'm not mistaken.

It depends on the attitude of your partner towards your investment. Both of you should strive hard to reach success together so I don't think to hide about Bitcoin with your partner would be helpful. I personally shared my address and wallets with my partner because I trust her. She's aware of crypto now that I explained how it works and its risks. Everything should be explained well to our partners so they will never ruin things but would ask for our approval when it comes to decision making.

As a couple there is no bread winner, or calculating how much the other one is earning, it should be balance at all, and money should not be the reason for the divorce, it should be the other reason just like adultery etc. So, yeah once you are still a couple, and decided to divorce then you are both entitled for equal fund or investment or savings that you have.

Hello Folks,

I was listening to a Bitcoin podcast the other day and the speaker mentioned that one person had written to him asking for advice - his wife had heard about Bitcoin in the mainstream media and the price rise and was pressuring him to cash it all out immediately or she would leave him.

I don't know how that particular fellow ended up but it got me thinking - for those of us with partners who are not into Bitcoin, have you ever had pressure put on you to sell it up and are they even aware of how much BTC you are actually holding?

There is a bigger picture here as well, with some people holding hundreds or thousands of BTC and the price continuing to go up - how might the court system view Bitcoin in the context of divorce and separation?

It certainly raises an interesting point.

Thoughts?

You can invest with bitcoin and altcoin but never use your saving money in the bank because when your wife know and bitcoin have been down you got problem with your house and your wife, but if profitable not worry where your source investment money come from when you loss you will angry by your wife, better use other passive your income for investing with bitcoin and altcoin.

I have no problem with my wife because she don't know much about Bitcoin but that's one of the risk if your wife knows all about Bitcoin and she is not a believer and we all know woman like shopping and material stability, but as long as you can explain to her about the potential, then you are good husband, husband should be good in explaining and it should be convincing.

Just to clarify - I personally don't hide my BTC from her, if anything I wish she would be into Bitcoin too!

I'm just curious if anyone's partner has suddenly "woken up" to the value of Bitcoin and demanding you cash out immediately, perhaps after listening to the MSM and thinking it's some kind of bubble or ponzi scheme... Angry

You should start listening to news that tell you the whole truth about Bitcoin. Bitcoin is not worst than fiat currencies. It's much better in my opinion. This is one of the most important things you need to let her know. Its price behaves alittle like gold... and it even has more purposes than gold.

I guess you should print out some fine bitcoins on paper to make them look like fiat currencies, maybe she will be convinced quicker if she could feel the fancy papers lol.

The "deflation" is as useful as other features of Bitcoin. So it is not a bubble nor mlm

I totally support you on this:

sometimes when we have the closest people it must be similar, because otherwise there will always be chaos in the bond. maybe it is important to look for people who are similar to us, especially for those closest to us

there are still many women out there who can understand us as men, don't have to retain women who can't understand what men are saying, my woman never asked me to sell bitcoin or anything, because she knew I had given her enough cash so she didn't have to know about the bitcoin that I have, don't have to sue for divorce just want to force it to sell it, it looks weird

Meh. Sometimes you don't know what's gonna happen once you and your wife are in that stage of life wherein money is gonna be the most crucial part of your life.
I could keep hiding in trading Bitcoin and just put it in USDT so after my death, our children would be able to inherit all of it.

I have written several keys to bequeathed to my children, considering that I also do not know about my wife and my situation, so I have prepared anything about the crypto inheritance that I have only for my children

Well i think it still depends. We have our own priorities anyway. If your btc asset came from your own pocket, then i don't think your wife should have any sat on how you handle it, especially if she doesn't understand crypto that much. I think a thorough explanation can work things out. If the asset came a joint account where she's putting in money as well, then that's a different story. I'd still try to explain what will happen, but if she insists, i'll withdraw probably just half of the btc asset.

i hope this story doesn't bring out the misogynists out in you guys.. she is probably a controlling bitch, but.. well, shit, i can't really defend her.

if i were the guy, i'd rather divorce her than let her emasculate me like that.

I agree with this, women are not leaders but we are the ones who guide them in the right way.
If he is more dominant than us better leave it.

Ouch. That's what 'love' does to people. First they like each other, then they hate each other.... reason enough to never get involved in a relationship or especially not a marriage. People who do anyway scam themselves.

It's funny that the wealth you worked for so hard to accumulate throughout the years needs to be hidden because it's at risk of being taken away from you by someone you wanted to get old with.

That once again points out that not talking your wealth is the best option, doesn't matter if it's your crush, friends, family, and so on.... all these people are nothing but a bunch of leeches trying to surf on the wealth you worked for.

Not gonna listen to your advice. I have a girlfriend and if I wanted to marry her, I will. I think it's terrible idea to block all feelings and avoid all relationships just because there is a CHANCE a partner will try to squeeze all the wealth from you after split up. My advice would be to not talk about numbers with your partner until you trust her/him unconditionally. And if you have trust issues you can sign a prenuptial agreement with your partner stating that cryptocurrencies are one's personal items and are not to be split.

I don't think bitcoin as a whole has anything to do with it. The court can just take it as an investment issue and should only agree the divorce if the both the parties mutually agree on it. If things go like this, then anybody can blackmail his/her partner saying to do this or that else they would file a divorce.
People need to grow up, have faith on each other because that's what a husband and wife do.
