Hundreds of billions, not millions.

  At least until they actually tried selling them

    They could be valuable in the sense that the owner can destroy bitcoin at will. Just having that leverage could be useful.

  Naah, the moment the first million of those is sold -- the price crashes. In other words, imagine some investor had those billions, and could buy the key. Should they? A thing is worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it.

    They might crash the price if they sold the whole stake in one go, sure. But I predict that modest selling would increase the bitcoin price. Just imagine the hype from the Second Coming of Satoshi. Bitcoin would be front page news in mainstream newspapers for that week.
