Clide Rice and Adopted Son Learn Loyalty is Expensive: Thrown Under The Bus by Bybit and Her Husband
The once-tight circle behind the viral sensation Bybit Official (Socks Family) has shattered. As of January 2026, Clide Rice and Adopted Son—the architects behind Bybit's online rise—have been cast aside. In a shocking turn of events, Bybit and her husband have allegedly "thrown them under the bus," with Bruno Furniturez named as the central figure orchestrating the discord.

| The Breakdown of Loyalty: Bybit Official Turns on Her Team |
Despite Clide Rice, Adopted Son, and Mai Rasy's Diaries playing pivotal roles in managing the brand and providing financial support, reports indicate that Bybit is now speaking negatively about them, accusing them of exploitation.
Loyalty Betrayed
On January 10, 2026, the rift became official. Clide Rice and Adopted Son issued a statement distancing themselves from Bybit. The core of the pain lies in the betrayal; the trio provided significant personal and financial support to build the brand, only to be accused of using Bybit for fame.
Adding insult to injury, Bybit Official has reportedly begun speaking badly about Mai Rasy's Diaries, Clide, and Adopted Son to the public. The narrative has shifted from gratitude to accusation, with Bybit claiming the team exploited her, a stance that has stunned fans who witnessed the team's dedication.
The Disruptor: Bruno Furniturez
Bruno Furniturez has emerged as the catalyst for this implosion. Reports suggest Bruno influenced Bybit by planting the idea that her support team was using her for their own gain rather than acting out of loyalty.
This external influence disrupted the working relationship, leading Bybit to view her long-time supporters with suspicion. Bruno's involvement is cited as a key reason why Bybit turned against the very people who helped elevate her brand.
Internal Control & Finances
The conflict isn't just external. Previous reports highlighted that Bybit's husband rejected opportunities for her personal growth, such as returning to school. This points toward a controlled environment that alienated her original support team, who wanted to see her independent success.
Financial disagreements fuelled the fire. Disputes over page monetization and the distribution of income were primary drivers of the split, with the management team feeling their financial contributions and efforts to generate revenue were being disregarded.
The Final Severance
Effective immediately, Clide Rice and Adopted Son are no longer representing or associated with Bybit Management. They cited increasing pressure, including alleged threats and calls from third parties, as the final straw.
The fallout has exploded on social media. Since January 13, content surrounding the drama has gained millions of views on Facebook and Instagram, with fans divided between the Socks Family and the team that built them.
