They will probably get a donation from Columbia (the owner of the coast who allowed them to explore it) to their lab for publicity purposes. And perhaps even more free reign and funding to explore some more. The real winner is WHOI, which becomes more famous university. "Those guys" might just go down in history a bit. This kind of "money" is spare change really to governments, but might draw tourists to visit museums I guess.

They made the claim when they hoisted Spain’s flag over the ship and had Spain’s soldiers as the crew.. the fact it is not only sunken treasure but a grave of Spanish soldiers killed by the British show who it will always belong to. The treasure however.. that was stolen from the indigenous people of South America. It should not go to any Spanish government, should be used to preserve the history of the natives of South America.
I wouldn't have said a word. They blabbed their mouth and may not get a dime. They should have called the right people to help them get down there and get it and split it. Then if they wanted to let the world know they found a wreck go for it.

They are in it for the history of it. They are true explorers. It really is an amazing piece of history. Just to be the one to find it or one of the people who has seen it/knows where it is would be a pleasure.
Neither countries have any claim and it shouldn’t prevent further exploration. If it’s in international waters, then it’s yours. Unless one of the countries are funding the salvage.
Wtf....the explorers do all the work and invest all the money to find the wreck and they don't get anything? I hate lawyers.

Silly pickle. Leaving treasure lying around.
Well, let's use the SS America, or the 'Ship of Gold' for an example. That ship was sunk off the North Carolina coast in the mid 1800's carrying vast amounts of California gold rush precious metal, including thousands of coins minted and uncirculated from the San Francisco mint, which was commissioned solely for that reason, the gold rush. Lloyds of London, the insurance company that had insured the cargo made the claim after the discovery in the 1990's. When all the court battles subsided, Lloyds only received slightly over 10% of the several billion dollars worth of gold cargo from that discovery. The rest, went to shareholders, mostly from Columbus, Ohio, who backed the multi year search and development of deep diving drones which were able to recover the majority of the gold lying on the bottom. The shareholders return was over 1,000%! Not too bad! That means that a single share, costing around $10,000, netted the investor a whopping $10,000,000!

If that was me i'll get those treasures little by little
The fact we know about it means that the finders will only get like 5% of the haul. Maybe not even that much. That's why if you find a treasure, don't go looking for clout. And if a buddy is with you..... Well.... If its worth 15 bil.... you need to decide if that friend of yours is a real friend or not. A real friend would take half and keep his or her mouth shut. But 9/10 when someone else knows... Everybody else will know. You just may have to bury your friend in the place you found the treasure lol. And WATCH YOUR BACK because he/she is thinking the same exact thing.

Great find! There is no moral evil in being a treasure hunter. Exploring is good, if you find something at your own expense and want to not be compensated that's your right. It is also the right of the treasurer hunter to profit from his/her effort. This modern idea fostered by certain people that treasure hunters are evil is just plain wrong and a modern bias from goverments or certain archeologist that they alone have a right to something found when they put no time, effort, or money into that project is just legiaized theft. Modern Spain or Columbia have less claim than the British who sunk her.
