In traditional finance, married couples usually opens joint bank account to manage money together. But when it comes to Bitcoin, things are are not always that simple. Should partners share a Bitcoin wallet like a joint bank account, or is it more smarter to just keep separate portfolios? A shared Bitcoin wallet helps builds transparency and can strengthen financial trust in a relationship. However, one big concern is security. If both partners got access to the same wallet and one of them falls for scam, all their Bitcoin could be gone forever.
Another issue is inheritance planning. If Bitcoin is held private by one partner and they pass away sudden without sharing access, the other one might struggle to get back the funds. And what if the couple ends up divorcing? That could turn into a whole different mess.
Talking about transparency, all we need is the public address to see the bitcoin transactions.
So transparency is still there if you just share the public address with each other.
In this scenario, it's best to hold the coins in separate wallets to minimize the risk of loss of coins.
