James Sexton says ‘hard wallet’ crypto can be difficult to prove exists in divorce cases

What was said

""If somebody has a hard wallet, it's pretty hard to prove the existence of a hard wallet.""

Divorce lawyer James Sexton says financial tracing has become harder to evade in many respects because moving money often leaves a trail, but claims cryptocurrency held in a self-custodied “hard wallet” can be difficult to establish in divorce discovery. He contrasts that with holdings on exchanges such as Coinbase, where he says subpoenas can produce clearer records.
