The article suggests each location contains 100% of the key, not using Shamir’s Secret Sharing.

> Taihuttu is trying to put a crypto cold wallet on every continent so it’s easier to access his holdings.

I hope it’s at least encrypted with an additional passphrase, otherwise it’s only as strong as the weakest bank’s security.

Wow.

> Taihuttu has two hiding spots in Europe, another two in Asia, one in South America, and a sixth in Australia.

> We aren’t talking buried treasure – none of the sites are below ground or on a remote island – but the family told CNBC the crypto stashes are hidden in different ways and in a variety of locations, ranging from rental apartments and friends’ homes to self-storage sites.

I hope this is all a decoy or else it’s the worst opsec I’ve seen since about five hours ago.

Or the Winklevoss twins who store their codes in separate banks across the country.

I would not want to be a friend to the sort of idiots who would say stuff like this. Having a target painted on my back as a decoy somehow makes it even worse.
