A woman is accused of stealing £180 million in Bitcoin from her ex-husband shortly after their divorce was finalized. The cryptocurrency was allegedly transferred from the ex-husband's digital wallet to accounts controlled by the ex-wife.

Legal proceedings are underway to recover the stolen funds and determine ownership. The case highlights the complexities of dividing digital assets in divorce proceedings and the challenges of tracking and recovering cryptocurrency.
