Losing my house potentially due to in game purchases.

So my issues began when I purchased a 5$ package in game to make a clan, and since then I guess I didn’t realize the extent of what was happening. I’m not gonna get into details of what lead to this exact moment however I drained my savings over the course of the last 8 months. 

I told my wife I was investing money into crypto etc when deposits were being made so she never truly questioned it until our account dropped just recently below 1000$ and now she’s asking if we can withdraw some of the crypto because we’re low on bills and I have nothing to show for it.

In total I have spent $98,000 roughly on in game purchases. I just don’t understand how it got to this point, do I tell my wife the truth? I’m afraid she will leave if she realizes everything we worked for went to this. Has anyone else been through something similar? Just looking for advice
