And only one person ever sees the private keys before they are destroyed from our records--and that person is me. I am the CEO and I engrave the coins myself. I also do the ciphers and much of the packaging. Tamper proofing cases like this is a challenge. It's slow and tedious work. But thorough. We built in 6-8 weeks just in case we got big orders. We would rather our customers be pleasantly surprised than disappointed.
I see a lot of posts regarding who had access to the coins before they were slabbed, but we've already had a statement regarding this from Alitin.
So then if this statement is true, he would have been the one to steal the BTC, as he was the only one with access to keys.....
OR
He is lying, other people had access to the keys and he is trying to cover this up.....
Either way, the trust has been breached...
Funny how it took a week for anyone to notice this.... That's a lot of time in the crypto-world.
I too, would have contacted my lawyer within that week..... coincidence??
