Maybe allow us to "bury our treasure", but the first person that comes along and hits Shift over the dig spot would get te gold. So, if you wanted to transfer gold, you have your buddy Jack standing there next to you so that he is the first one to try the dig spot and gets the buried treasure.
They are talking about extending the amount of gold a single pirate can have Rackat my friend, not transferring gold from pirate to pirate, we can already do that in poker!!! Dont think anyone mentioned or considered it as a way of transferring gold. Just a means of holding more. This was an idea to extend the 65k max gold a pirate can have, not give them means of handing it out.. hehe.
