I want to generate a multisig address. Alice, Bob and I shall have one key each.
How can I give keys to Alice and Bob and prove that I have not seen their keys?

You use intermediate addresses and they generate their own keys.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

Hmm, I still don't really get it. Huh

Is there a website where I can test it out?

To generate a 2-3 multisig address only needs Alice, Bob and your public keys , no private keys needed . https://gist.github.com/gavinandresen/3966071

btw: If you wanna be an escrow agent , try http://copay.io/ or https://bitescrow.org/
