What would settle it: Exchange price feed or on-chain transaction data timestamped to the wallets' closing trades.

What to make of it

Treat the $11.6M profit, the two-wallet closure, and the nearly two-month holding period as established, since all three outlets agree; do not rely on either outlet's stated Bitcoin price until it is checked against exchange or on-chain data from the time of the trade.
