I’m assuming these people don’t have $5 million in the bank.

So they’ll have to sell half of the coins just to pay the tax man.

I remember the same thing for some game show like "The Price is Right" or "Wheel of Fortune" or something like that. People would win a car, but couldn't afford the taxes they had to pay on it. I think they switched to a secret "cash option" that people could take instead of the cars.

I also remember stories about pro sports team owners dying and leaving the team to their kids. The kids would owe so much death-tax they'd have to sell the team.
