Schmidt, guided by legal counsel, complied with the request, although he added a confidentiality clause that expired a year before the disclosure.

“The guy who wants to tell you how to use Bitcoin can't even protect his own Bitcoin and because of that he got everyone at the FBI meeting. Good job Luke!
