He wrote the message into the blockchain, where the rest of us could read along. What happened next was not a ransom.</strong></p> <p>On Sunday a payment left the bitcoin wallet that the company behind Liquid keeps as the backing for its own coin. <strong>3,996 bitcoin went out, around 320 million dollars, and 197 stayed behind.</strong> Eleven of the fifteen companies that guard that wallet had put their signature under it, and each signature was correct. As far as the software could tell, a customer had walked up to the counter and asked for his money.</p>
