Paper from Science [1] (registration or scihub required). Not clear to me whether "cash out" means that they sent funds from a MIT-controlled wallet into any other wallet or if they took it to addresses known to be exchanges. If the former then another explanation is that they were just being prudent to truly control the money.

- sputknick 9y agoMy first thought as well. These NEAs probably already had a mechanism for managing their coin, and so wanted to consolidate, rather than have a separate "MIT wallet"
- wyldfire 9y agoIf a prerequisite for getting the funds from MIT was establishing your own wallet somewhere and providing a deposit addr, then perhaps they could designate "cash out" to mean "move from that initial deposit address to anywhere else". Aside from some bias caused by sweeping, it's a more reasonable way to draw these conclusions.
