This seems to be inaccurate. The twins could choose to simply sell the private key in a private transaction. Assuming they didn't create one wallet with 50,000 bitcoin, they could even sell portions. This gets them paid AND puts the onus for moving the coins to a new address on the new owner. They could exit in 5 minutes if another billionaire wanted their coins bad enough.
- mac01021 9y ago> simply sell the private key in a private transaction Then why not sell it three times to three separate parties? And also keep a copy of the key and engage in some spending from the wallet themselves? I'm not saying that these particular people would engage in such trickery. But I would be very wary of any proposition to sell me bitcoins in an out-of-band transaction of this kind.
- Idontrmbrlogin 9y agoAgreed, not saying it is smart but it IS possible.
