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?
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.
