That's how part of my hypothesis differs from yours.

This works as well, because the end result is the same (everybody being involved) but I like what you have about Kyrie knowing ahead of time. It would be harder to coordinate a lie if everybody has known for a long time.
For this to work, then Shannon would have had to solve the Epitaph ahead of time to get all of the money. Then she would have sent an enormous amount of money to those bank accounts (which is possible, since
EP2 has shown us that Shannon is allowed to leave Rokkenjima).
I also think that Shannon sent out the message bottles to mimic "And Then There Were None", further intensifying the mystery atmosphere on Rokkenjima.
