Transfer an alias

sithbit alias transfer <alias> <new_address> \
  [--keypair <keypair>] \
  [--skip-preflight]

Moves an existing alias to point at a new wallet address. The alias’s current holder must sign — an alias can’t be taken from its owner without their key:

sithbit alias transfer john_doe maiLtdkxym8CCmo9TwDuXywqd9DXaK3tB6toKFVeBFR

See Appendix: Closing accounts for how to close an alias instead of transferring it.
