If no-one can access the cold storage accounts, then three possibilities that immediately occur to me:

1. As written, the guy died and took his passwords to the grave = money gone for good.

2. Someone is lying about only him knowing the passwords and has seen an opportunity to pocket the lot with no-one the wiser

3. Someone stole the money and then had him bumped off with no-one the wiser.

Is the money still there? Schroedinger’s cryptocurrency.
