I would say that the silver lining is, they are a publicly traded company...not a side street vendor. Meaning they have shareholders/stockholders, traded on an exchange. Very public. They are on the NASDAQ. They aren't just a simple mining pool.

If that happened, the coincidence would be too huge, and would be an easy investigation.

Would a company like that want that investigation and open up everything, and go through the public scrutiny. And possibly lose millions in stock value?

I dunno, but I doubt it.

You may never get those specific BTCs back, but I bet you would be compensated, somehow, someway.

True, it's hard to trust anything these days, but IMO, this seems to be one of the best, secure, safest ways to transfer 66's funds, if not the best. (Unless you run your own pool mining outfit and can include it in your owned mined block )
