In an ideal world, when two spouses no longer wish to remain married, they can work in good faith with each other to end the marriage. Yet divorce can bring out the worst in nice people, and some people aren’t very friendly from the beginning! People are especially prone to do unethical things when marriages fall apart and assets are at stake. Unfortunately, these things happen. Hiding assets is one of the oldest divorce “dirty tricks” in the book. Often, the process of hiding assets begins long before the actual divorce, as one spouse begins to hide things with the intention of starting the divorce process once they have finished concealing assets. A spouse can hide assets in countless ways. They may conceal large amounts of cash within a safe deposit box. They may transfer assets or property to friends or family as a gift or sell them below market value, with the intention of the other party holding them until after the divorce is final. People have been known to use offshore bank accounts, shell corporations, and all manner of financial trickery to hide assets. Another method that has become more common is a spouse hiding assets in cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin. Given that these currencies were developed to preserve anonymity, they are a natural avenue for someone looking to conceal assets maliciously. If one spouse has remained largely in the dark while the other spouse has handled the accounts and the budget during the marriage, they may have little or no idea what they actually own. This spouse is especially vulnerable to being deprived of an equitable distribution of property because of hidden assets.
