I too have a little coin in BT and have done for sometime.

But if I was going away on holiday (i.e. John off sailing). I would probably not take the cold storage keys with me. Especially to China. I would probably have them in a safety deposit box in a Bank.

Perhaps we are just waiting for his return to get things moving?

Or perhaps we have all indeed been screwed.

Perhaps the BearWhale was BT cleaning out their wallets before running?

All we can really do is give it a few days. If nothing.....the hunt is on.
