If I held that ticket, I would move to Florida or even Wyoming and establish residency before cashing it in.

Even if I had to move out in the middle of the night.

That’s what a black woman from the Bronx or Brooklyn did. She went down to claim her ticket in a U-Haul and was gone when she made all the arrangements. She won $120 million, as I recall.

Not sure what you're getting at, but the taxes would be levied based on where the ticket was purchased and your residence at the time of purchase. California doesn't tax lottery winnings, so there is no advantage there. Except to be gone from California.

Lottery winnings are exempt from state taxes in California.

Doing so wouldn’t exempt the winner from taxes in his/her state of residence.

I believe it is known which store sold the tickets. The store that sold the ticket gets a percentage. They must be serialized.
