Bitcoin Hypothetical

Ok, let’s say a guy is getting divorced. He and the wife go alone to discuss splitting everything. The wife, who never showed interest in btc mentions at the end that she wants the btc too.

Without skipping a beat the husband replies that he no longer has bitcoin. The wife seemingly accepts this and the meeting ends.

The next day the husband is informed that he needs to make a financial inventory to turn into the court appointee who’s handling the split.

What are the pit falls and things one would need to consider when making his ???? disappear?

One idea would be to go to the person who Orange Pilled him and send all his sats to that person’s hardware wallet. The concern here is that all of the divorcées’ sats are on exchanges; does that matter? Is this a potential point of traceability? Even if it was, what’s the likelihood of the court taking it upon itself to become cyber-sleuths?

I figured that kind of scrutiny would be reserved for a lawyer and his PI. This would be costly.

Finally; what kind of legal danger is involved here? Is the friend who’s received and holding the sats a glaring partner in crime (legally)?

If this is a shit plan, what’s the better option?

Thanks for the discussion.
