In this episode of Coin Stories, Natalie Brunell interviews Matt McClintock, founder and CEO of Bespoke Group, about estate planning, trusts, wealth strategies, and why early Bitcoin adopters are selling their holdings. McClintock shares his journey into Bitcoin after a client with substantial Bitcoin holdings sought his expertise in estate planning. He discusses the challenges of estate planning with Bitcoin due to its bearer nature and the complexities of passing it on to less sophisticated family members. The conversation explores the concept of sovereignty in Bitcoin ownership, especially when dealing with significant wealth, and the importance of legal structures like trusts to manage and protect these assets. McClintock also addresses the tax implications of holding and selling Bitcoin, the role of philanthropy among Bitcoin whales, and the evolving financial markets around Bitcoin.
