From volatile crypto to startup equity and rookie sports contracts, modern finances are messy. In 2025 couples are using prenups to bring clarity—before life gets complicated.
Why this year is different
- Crypto & digital assets: wild price swings and custody risks.
- Equity comp: RSUs, options, and liquidity events don’t follow a tidy schedule.
- Rookie deals: big income spikes with uncertain longevity.
How a modern prenup handles modern money
- Define ownership and valuation dates for crypto and equity.
- Clarify tax responsibilities, trading restrictions, and security practices.
- Set reimbursement and buyout rules for contributions to a spouse’s business or career.
Templates won’t cut it
Generic forms rarely address token forks, airdrops, liquidity events, or cliff/vesting schedules. A tailored agreement prevents surprises later.
Next steps
General information, not legal advice. Talk to a lawyer if you have complex assets or unusual income patterns.
