What's wrong with bags of cash? A company paying a 5 million ransom can spend 100k on the logistics (private jet etc) of getting that money delivered. This isn't a real obstacle.

Wire transfers would work fine too, the ransomware operators simply won't provide the keys until they've secured the money from their drop account.
