FBI 在竊盜調查中傳喚比特幣核心開發者的個人訊息

In a startling development, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has issued a subpoena demanding the personal information of attendees at a 2022 Bitcoin core developer event. This bombshell revelation comes from Mike Schmidt, co-founder of Bitcoin non-profit Brink, who confirmed via email that he had received the subpoena.

令人震驚的是，聯邦調查局 (FBI) 發出傳票，要求 2022 年比特幣核心開發者活動的與會者提供個人資訊。這項爆炸性消息來自比特幣非營利組織 Brink 的聯合創始人 Mike Schmidt，他透過電子郵件證實他已收到傳票。

Schmidt's email, shared publicly by a pseudonymous X user named mikeinspace, states that the subpoena is related to a hack that resulted in the theft of 216 BTC from Bitcoin developer Luke Dashjr. Schmidt was legally advised to cooperate with the investigation.

施密特的電子郵件由一位名為 mikeinspace 的化名 X 用戶公開分享，郵件中指出，該傳票與一次駭客攻擊有關，該駭客攻擊導致比特幣開發商 Luke Dashjr 的 216 BTC 被盜。法律建議施密特配合調查。

The subpoena compel Schmidt to provide the FBI with the email addresses, GitHub usernames, and full names of attendees at the October 2022 CoreDev Atlanta event, held just before TABConf 2022. Schmidt was subject to a one-year gag order imposed by the FBI, which expired just before his recent disclosure.

傳票迫使 Schmidt 向 FBI 提供 2022 年 10 月在 TABConf 2022 之前舉行的 2022 年 10 月 CoreDev 亞特蘭大活動參與者的電子郵件地址、GitHub 用戶名和全名。Schmidt 受到 FBI 施加的一年禁言令的約束，該協議在他最近披露之前到期。

Schmidt emphasized that he has not had any further contact with the FBI and declined to elaborate on the specifics of the investigation.

施密特強調，他尚未與聯邦調查局進行任何進一步接觸，並拒絕詳細說明調查細節。

This revelation has sent shockwaves through the Bitcoin community, raising concerns about the FBI's motives and the potential for surveillance targeting cryptocurrency users.

這一消息在比特幣社區引起了軒然大波，引發了人們對聯邦調查局動機以及針對加密貨幣用戶進行監視的可能性的擔憂。

"This is a worrisome development," said Jackson Matlock, a spokesperson for Brink. "It raises questions about the FBI's approach to investigating cryptocurrency-related crimes and the potential for encroachment on privacy rights."

「這是一個令人擔憂的事態發展，」布林克發言人傑克遜馬特洛克說。 “這引發了人們對聯邦調查局調查加密貨幣相關犯罪的方法以及侵犯隱私權的可能性的質疑。”

Dashjr, the victim of the theft, disclosed in December 2022 that he had lost over 200 BTC due to a Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) key compromise. At the time, the stolen funds were valued at approximately $3.3 million. Today, the value of 200 Bitcoin has skyrocketed to over $14 million.

這起竊案的受害者 Dashjr 於 2022 年 12 月透露，由於 Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) 金鑰洩露，他損失了 200 多個 BTC。當時，被盜資金價值約 330 萬美元。如今，200 個比特幣的價值已飆升至超過 1,400 萬美元。

The FBI's subpoena is not the first time that law enforcement agencies have targeted cryptocurrency users. In 2021, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the FBI collaborated on an investigation into a false tweet claiming the launch of a Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF).

聯邦調查局的傳票並不是執法機構第一次針對加密貨幣用戶。 2021 年，美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 和 FBI 合作對一條聲稱推出比特幣交易所交易基金 (ETF) 的虛假推文進行了調查。

The cryptocurrency community remains vigilant as it monitors the ongoing FBI investigation and its potential implications for the industry. Concerns persist about the balance between law enforcement objectives and the preservation of individual privacy rights in the digital age.

加密貨幣社區保持警惕，密切關注聯邦調查局正在進行的調查及其對該行業的潛在影響。人們對數位時代執法目標與保護個人隱私權之間的平衡仍然存在擔憂。
