Unrealized gains on Roth & Traditional IRAs ~ Separate or Community Property

#1

My questions concern separate and community property. I have 2 scenarios.

  1. Pre-marriage, I invested $10,000 in an IRA. The investment was always kept separate. It was converted into a Roth IRA during marriage, and I don’t remember how the conversion was paid for. Nothing has ever been taken out. Would the entire amount (appreciation & principal) be considered separate property?
  2. During marriage, I inherited an IRA.  It is now a beneficiary IRA.  The funds have been kept separate and no amount ever taken out.  Would the appreciation of this beneficiary IRA, which occurred during marriage, be considered separate or community property?

I’ve searched the internet for answers, but find nothing that addresses the appreciation or interest related to the funds. My hope is it follows the asset!
Thank you so very much for your help.

  1. While the pre-marital IRA is largely separate property, any contributions that occurred during marriage would be community property. Additionally, if community property money (any money earned during marriage) paid for the conversion of the IRA, the community would, at a minimum, be owed reimbursement for the payment.

  2. Inheritances are separate property, including any profits, appreciation, etc.

I Recovered 3.8 BTC After Being Scammed — How Bitreclaim,com Traced and Recovered My Crypto

In the fast-moving world of crypto, the line between opportunity and fraud can be razor thin. What started as a promising trading experience on an unfamiliar platform ended in a nightmare that nearly cost me my entire crypto portfolio. I was scammed out of $350,000 USDT , locked out of withdrawals, and subjected to intimidation tactics by a fraudulent broker. I want to share how I fought back and recovered 3.8 BTC with the help of a digital forensic team at Bitreclaim .

The Setup: A “Broker” with All the Right Words

Like many others venturing into new trading opportunities, I deposited $350,000 USDT into a broker platform called Soolike . At first, everything seemed above board. Their user interface was clean, the support was responsive, and trades were being executed smoothly. But the moment I tried to withdraw funds, the facade fell apart.

The Red Flags: Fake Violations and Withdrawal Blockades

After executing a few trades, I decided to test the platform’s withdrawal process. It was my first time using them, and I wanted to verify the security of my funds. That simple test revealed everything I needed to know.

The platform denied my withdrawal request, accusing me of engaging in “single-day trading violations.” They demanded I sign a formal commitment letter, and even more bizarrely, required me to record a video admitting to my mistake. Under pressure, I complied—thinking this was a one-time formality.

Wrong.

Next, they insisted I continue trading 33 more lots before I could access my funds. I refused. Their response? My profits would be forfeited. Desperate to retrieve my principal, I agreed to give up the profits. But even then, they denied my withdrawal request, citing issues with my account verification.

KYC Manipulation and Identity Probing

The platform claimed I had opened the account with false identity information. They asked me to resubmit a video of myself, provide my government-issued ID, proof of income, and proof of address. I submitted all genuine documents , hoping to resolve the issue. Still, they stalled, delayed, and dodged every attempt I made to reclaim my funds.

That’s when I realized this wasn’t mismanagement or poor customer service—it was an elaborate scam.

Discovering Bitreclaim: The Turning Point

At this point, I began searching for legitimate recovery options. That’s when I came across a crypto fraud awareness post on Quora, which mentioned Bitreclaim , a digital asset recovery firm known for its blockchain forensic expertise.

I contacted them immediately:

  • Email: bitreclaims@protonmail,com
  • WhatsApp (24/7): +1 347 753 4233

Within minutes, their team connected me to a smart contract audit lead who began a detailed intake process. They asked for every piece of information I had—wallet addresses, transaction hashes, screenshots, communications, and logs.
