Understand the Basics of Cryptocurrency, Including How to Find It, Value It, and Divide It

Cryptocurrency is becoming more mainstream and isn’t just for speculators and IT pros anymore. Although the general public is frequently investing in and holding cryptocurrency, it continues to be a topic that many divorce attorneys know little about. While cryptocurrency can seem intimidating, it is crucial for attorneys to have some basic knowledge about this increasingly popular asset. Like cash, cryptocurrency can be easily overlooked (or intentionally hidden) in divorce cases. Cryptocurrency can be one of the most valuable assets a marital estate may have. It is also one of the easiest ways to hide money for a tech-savvy, dishonest spouse.
