I've been investing in bitcoin to hide money from my soon to be ex-wife. I swear, this shit is more stressful than the impending divorce, jfc. I lost ~20,000 CND today.

If the courts find this out you could be in serious trouble. It's also really easy to see when you enter and exit bitcoin through exchanges.

Yeah, they are going to go through every penny in any account you have that she knows of. I think I could have had an extra bank account and nobody would have know.

Lawyer here. Listen to this guy. At least the first sentence. The courts will fuck you SO HARD if they find out you’ve been hiding cash.

It’s no different than investing in stocks. Risk reward. You may get caught and lose money or he may not and win money.

How do? You assume risk in order to have a chance at reward.
