Nothing, that's the brilliance of it. If goldman's can out-bid anyone
else then it's not leaking, just extortion. Goldman's keeps a secret but
they have to pay their own money to the release crew.
What is a good question is if they get hit again by another crew, can
they claim that the first crew went back on their promise? Maybe it will
iron itself out as a plain extortion racket but the optimum size of a crew
will never be that large so when they scale up, they become weak and
vulnerable.
