I agree that this is probably about persistence. Initially I thought the developer was playing the long-con to dump some crypto exchange and make off with literally a billion dollars or more.

But if that was the case they wouldn't bother with the key. It'd be a one-and-done situation. It would be a stop-the-world event.

Now it looks more like nation-state spycraft.
