I think it would be much better if Free Trade just answered the questions, then the community can decide if they want to just pay him up front for his work and guarantee his interest. Also would be good to know how many coins he gave himself in the Genesis Block, what he mined later or was paid is fine because by the protocol he earned it. That which was mined before is a pre-mine, and premines need to be transparently disclosed for there to be any confidence in this sort of cryptocurrency.
If it's so undesirable to answer those questions that he needs to quit/be fired, that seems like all the answer necessary.
