Can I hide all my assets from my wife using Bitcoin and what's the best way?

[PostQuantumBTC]

Solution: I plan on selling all my stock market investments, putting all that money in a bitcoin cold wallet then moving permanently to Iraq where all my cousins and siblings live. By the time my wife realizes what had happened, I will be in a different continent and no police organization would bother tracking someone down for something this minor.

Just know that the money might still be tracked, but you have a very good plan which I also support if you are not cheating but your wife is cheating on you. Do as you said, move to your home country.

But if you know she is not having any money or if she is kind of depending on you, just send her some money that comes from your heart. Do not be be too self-centered about it and pity her a bit.

Prenup agreements is something couple make before marriage, so i think you actually talk about postnuptial agreement. But considering what OP told us, i don't think the wife would agree to make postnuptial agreement that benefit OP more (more than 50% asset goes to OP).

That was more of a general warning to the people. The OP is pretty much ruined financially whatever happens at this point.

You both made a vow when you married each other and if she is cheating, that vow is no longer valid and the law should have your back according to the again, common sense.

I don't know the church that you're attending, in my church the vow has made you one and even if you caught her cheating she is still your wife and deserves to be treated as your wife. If you want a divorce, you are the one filing for it and not her, therefore, you must give her half of your property. Even if she's the one filling for divorce the same applies. I believe we are all civilized.

I don’t attend any.

I have also never advised him do anything against the law.

Another misunderstanding is that, I know that in divorce assets are split 50/50 but not if the assets were acquired before the marriage. That rule applies only to the assets that were acquired during the marriage.

That means whatever you bought after the marriage will be split 50/50, dividends which you received during marriage regardless of the date of the stock purchase too.

That’s how it is done here in my country and it should be the same in the US.

That means if his wife goes after his personal investments which he made before his marriage as well, then he should be prepared for that. How? By hiring a lawyer.

Again I ain’t no lawyer, and he should definitely hire one.

It is his lawyer against hers at this point he should forget about the rest. I don’t know if going back to Iraq is worth it over this. That’s also his decision.

Edit: I see that they were married for 20 fukkin years.

R.I.P. them assets. 50% divorce tax. Dayum.

That makes my earlier suggestion even stronger. Don’t get married unless you find someone who agrees to a prenup. That’s a financial suicide.

Better yet, first get rich, then get married.

In reality, it’s not a fact that the wife will even dig in or demand half of everything especially if she’s the one initiating the divorce. You can simply create conditions where she agrees to almost anything just to end the marriage. But It to be fair, if she truly was there throughout the entire period when the wealth was earned, then there’s no point in being stingy. After all, everything was built during their shared life together, and it’s not certain that the man would’ve achieved such success if he hadn’t married this woman. It was likely thanks to the environment created in the family that he was able to realize the qualities that helped him become wealthy. Besides, all his skills and knowledge remain with him, if he managed to make money once, he’ll be able to do it again.

Obey the law. 20 years is not a short time for a relationship. As long as you're with her, you have rights to her assets.
Prison would be useless if there were no evil people in the world.

If you sell all your assets and want to invest them in Bitcoin in an attempt to prevent your wife from getting any, you're trying to damage Bitcoin's reputation.

This got me rolling on the floor, why are you sounding so pained? Are you a female because you sound like one, very funny, thanks for making me laugh out loud this morning, I needed that.

This move from OP won't damage Bitcoin reputation, you need to calm down a bit, Bitcoin was never made to settle dispute between partners in marriages lol.

How you tend to use bitcoin is your decision, but my advice to OP is to let go, maybe he is the one that did the lady dirty we won't know, the most complicated issue in this life that you should avoid to be the judge is relationship, its very shady.

I am 45 and have A LOT of money invested in the stock market. Enough to never work another day in my life. Recently I found out that my wife of 20 years was having an affair with a friend. I am heartbroken, devastated and want revenge. She doesn't know that I found out about her affair and don't plan on telling her anytime soon.

Here's the problem: If I divorce her I will have to give her half of my assets. I don't think it's fair at all that somebody can cheat and then take half a man's money.

Solution: I plan on selling all my stock market investments, putting all that money in a bitcoin cold wallet then moving permanently to Iraq where all my cousins and siblings live. By the time my wife realizes what had happened, I will be in a different continent and no police organization would bother tracking someone down for something this minor.

I've been interested in bitcoin for years and this is my chance to pull the trigger. Has anyone done something similar and what's the best way to buy bitcoin so that the courts can't track down where I moved that cash? From my research I am planning on withdrawing my cash then going to bitcoin ATM's across my state, buying bitcoin then transferring it to my cold wallet. Is this possible and is there a better way?

Thanks in advance Bitcoiners!

Start banging chicks right and left while you still can. Make maximum of your "A LOT of money invested" and your age while you still can. And dont divorce her. That will be your punishment. Pay half of what left and be free. Your solution looks like running like coward.

[RockBell]

And a lot of people these days have the same problem of their partner stealing from them, which is just crazy. The next thing they want is to divide the wealth, and this particular situation has brought many men down. The problem now is that women are unpredictable and extremely dangerous because of the stories of men catching their wives cheating or their wives wanting to get a divorce because of their wealth.

And the idea of moving your wealth to bitcoin in a cold wallet is one of the best things decision that anyone smart can make because at the ending of the day you will be the one losing even if you confront her of cheating women are always consider first in the society despite what men are going through just make sure any decision you are making should be in your own favor.  because civilization is simply insane. and that is why most men are even putting there investment in there moms name.

[Jewan420]

You should not run away from the problem, but face it. The rules of all countries are not the same, since you got married, you are obliged to give him some of your wealth. But the percentage to be given is not fixed. What happened to you is very bad and I sympathize with you. Personally, I will never be in favor of sharing wealth with cheaters. But you are obliged to follow the law of the country, you should now discuss with a good lawyer and take advice on what to do. I think, there must be a law against cheaters in a couple relationship, if there is no law then it is definitely unfair. In such a country, it will be very easy to acquire other people's wealth by cheating, especially for women. Even boys will move away from marital relations and lean towards illegal relations.

[lovesmayfamilis]

Just split everything evenly and go on with your life. Not worth moving to Iraq and looking over your shoulder. It happens but at least you are rich unlike most other men. Good luck.

Unfortunately, this behavior isn't typical for all men. Many who currently support the OP don't know their other half's story. Is everything as fair as the OP claims? I hesitate to ask about twenty years of marriage without children. If there aren't any, then cheating can sometimes be justified, but if there are, then running off with all the property is quite dirty. Twenty years of marriage aren't free for a wife; the man is naturally considered responsible, but the noble solution would be to split the property equally. Furthermore, life has a way of arranging things in a certain order, and this money can vanish without any trace.

[Apocollapse]

I don't think it's possible for you to avoid giving half of your asset when your asset have been record by the government e.g. stock. You've gave your identity and they know how much you invested, it's different if you buy Bitcoin without KYC and you hold in cold wallet.

There's a better way, you have to open something that makes people think you suffer financial difficulty, let's say a fake business, gambling or other thing, but the truth you convert your money in Bitcoin.

This got me rolling on the floor, why are you sounding so pained? Are you a female because you sound like one, very funny, thanks for making me laugh out loud this morning, I needed that.

Women always been like that, whenever there's a situation where the women make mistake, they either justify that or they trying to find an excuse to blame the men.

I ever heard this, if a man cheat, he only do it for fun. But, if a woman cheat, it mean she loves him.

[mrust_mobile]

Maybe you cheat on her too if it is going to make you feel better. Since the assets will be divided by half, at least don’t feel like you got scammed emotionally. Do the same thing hehehe.

But don’t do that recklessly like the other dude advised. Banging chicks left and right will give you herpes eventually. Especially the left ones.

Always wear protection.

Safety first.

Godspeed

[michellee]

I am sorry for your story.

My suggestion is the same as @AprilioMP said: follow the law. It is not all of your money because you are bound in a marriage so your wife deserves that money, even though she is having an affair with a friend. But after you give the money, that is your money and no one can get the money if you don't give it. Let her live with her affair while you can live happily with your money.

Maybe you think it is not fair for you who work hard but trust me, it is not worth it for your future. Half money to her will not stay for a long but half money in your hands can stay for the future because you know how to use that money. You have a dream to invest in Bitcoin so go for it. No need to think about whether it is fair or not. GOD will take care of you.

[SOKO-DEKE]

This story really touches my heart, honestly. I have never experienced it before, but even with the little experience I got from my girlfriend when I caught her cheating on me, I can't even express how painful it was for me at that particular period. Now you caughting your wife cheating,i don't know the kind of pain you  may be going through. All I have to say is.take heart, and quickly find a solution to this so that the situation will not continue causing more pain to you and trying to steal all your joys forever.

If divorce is your option, do it in a proper way: just give her half of your property and let her go her own way, and everyone live in peace while you continue with your new life. Try to be smart  if this is not possible or does not work out for you, be careful: if your wife knows about your wealth it is very possible that, even if you try to sell and convert it to bitcoin, they may do further investigation and you could be caught trying to outsmart the law,and that shouldn't lead you into more problems.

[Satofan44]

Indeed are funny the people who want the victim to pay money to the perpetrator. You get to be fucked two in this case.   In any case OP you have made a mistake in marrying at all under standard circumstances. The law is biased towards bad people and perpetrators, they often get the better end of the deal in many situations. Since you are going to get divorced, the next time you plan on getting married make sure that you do it with complete asset separation through a prenup. In this way you are forever protected from your spouse no matter what they do and no matter why they do it.
Nevertheless some of the respondents make good points. You can manage to hide some of your assets by using Bitcoin, or much better, by using Monero. However, you would be committing a crime and you may end up with even more consequences in the future if you are ever found out. Are you sure you want to take this risk?

There are very few people in the world who would be able to pull this off without making mistakes and who would be able to retain the anonymity of those assets for the rest of their lives. You are not one of them. I am not saying that you should do one or the other, that is up to you to decide, but you need to be very careful and think this through before doing anything.

Another topic on this issue.
Wife discovers husband's hidden Bitcoin during divorce proceeding.

This only happens to amateurs. Unless you have a forensic expert wife, someone who knows what they are doing are able to hide a lot of their wealth forever.

Prenup agreements is something couple make before marriage, so i think you actually talk about postnuptial agreement. But considering what OP told us, i don't think the wife would agree to make postnuptial agreement that benefit OP more (more than 50% asset goes to OP).

It is too late for OP. Too many people are brainwashed by TV propaganda before they understand how the real world works. Do not ever get married without a prenup, even if you are poor at the time of marriage.

[mustapha67]

I understand that marriage is a union of two people who are ready, and vowed to support each other in any situation. As a result, if the trust is 50/50, there may not be need to hide assets from a wife. But if there is no trust, then there is need to worry about whether she deserves to know about the assets.

Most wives could be very supportive to their husbands. And some are ready to pull their husbands from top to bottom. Therefore, I am submitting that whether hiding, or exposing asserts to my wife depends on who she really is to me. Do I trust her..? If yes, good! But if no, then keeping my asserts away from her is the option.

[Cointxz]

Just separate to your wife and use what you find out about here instead of divorcing her upfront and try to getaway with your money from your stock market investments because that money is trackable and it can be a crime if you hide it once the lawsuit comes.

You didn’t mention if you have a child since this crucial too on money you are trying to hide from your wife.

It’s better to confront your wife and talk about your problem instead of running like a coward dog as if you are the one who commit the mistake. Be a man and confront her with her mistake. It’s not your fault so you are not the one that should leave.

[Josefjix]

It seems you were tired of the marriage and suddenly looking for an excuse to varnish?

Its rare to see a case where a man is filing up for a divorce, you trying to set yourself in a fire that will burn you up more than you think? confront her and fix everything up and stop overthinking,

Now that you know she is having affair with a friend, prepare your amour and register your assets under your moms name, if she get caught and start the divorce, the court should know that all your assets are not yours but owned by your Mother.

For your wife to have started the move of cheating on you, she has left you mentality for long, so don't be surprise if she file for divorce, register all your assets under your moms name before its too late.

It is probably possible to create a trust fund where the only beneficiary is the kid especially if the kid is below 18. (It might be too late for that too)

It is not the full solution you are looking for and that kind of deal is not for everyone as parents’ love for their children… well let’s say it varies. Some love themselves more.

Do you hate your wife (which is a negative number, multiply this by-1) more than you love your kid (a positive number)? Make a comparison and decide. You might add your love for yourself to the equation as well.

Let the numbers do the talking. Maybe you’ll find peace in math.

Regardless of what your spouse does in the end, the situation regarding joint property when you become a couple clearly cannot be taken lightly because even if you file for divorce in any court for the issue of property division during marriage, it is clear that this will definitely happen.

This may seem unfair to you, but regardless you have done certain things because 20 years is certainly not a short time and your spouse has contributed to the finances you have today.
This does not mean that I support infidelity, because that is the most despicable thing a person can do, but in the end, when you still live in a country that has laws, if you want to do what you have written, you will not win when your spouse files a lawsuit against you later.


Stepping away from the topic, as a fellow man I share your sorrow over what you're going through mate but trust me, this situation won't last forever and you'll find happiness outside of your relationship in the future.

Here's the problem: If I divorce her I will have to give her half of my assets. I don't think it's fair at all that somebody can cheat and then take half a man's money.

This is the story and the cruelest trial in this world, like a saw being pulled behind a wound and being pulled in front of a wound, everything goes wrong, whoever you are I can only say be patient, everything has wisdom behind what happened to you.

Yes, the solution you want to do is correct.

Solution: I plan on selling all my stock market investments, putting all that money in a bitcoin cold wallet then moving permanently to Iraq where all my cousins and siblings live. By the time my wife realizes what had happened, I will be in a different continent and no police organization would bother tracking someone down for something this minor.

This method is the most genius and precise, you don't need to bring a suitcase and a bank account, you only need a key to reopen your assets in Iraq, if you need a laptop, You don't need to buy and carry an Android cellphone, when you get to Iraq you just do everything and start with a new life and sell some of your Bitcoin assets.

I agree with your idea, cold wallets, it's safer.

[rat03gopoh]

Without any moral or legal advice, the key issue isn't how to "hiding bitcoin" or break the chain of connection between your funds and the Bitcoin from your partner, but how you'll justify the outflow from your bank records.
This plan is certainly easy to read, and you have virtually no chance of avoiding it.
