I gotta imagine you could probably sneak a good chunk of selling in before people noticed or the thing went to zero. You'll likely have time to plan after breaking it, so you could move quick, and there are many long inactive wallets with tons of BTC in them. Some have keys lost in landfills, some have dead or jailed owners, and so on.

So I can see how you could pull it off before the price tanked, and even then, it's not a given that it'd go to zero. Just because a powerful actor can compromise your Bitcoin wallet doesn't _necessarily_ make it completely worthless -- just look at all the chains that are trivial to 51% attack which are still chugging along with small valuations. The price probably would collapse though.
