gollark: I guess so. You could make it so that if both the owners tell it to it updates the splitting.
gollark: Sure. Although if you wanted to update the split you would have to set up an entirely new address, which is a problem.
gollark: You would give money to the script's address, and it would verifiably split it between two people.
gollark: I have to admit that this *would* be an interesting way to do multi-person-owned shops.
gollark: People have shops and those have brand names and such, but those aren't companies; mostly profit just goes right to the owner and investment is done by loans negotiated between individuals.
