The Bitcoin whitepaper his hidden inside macOS
Satoshi Nakamoto’s Bitcoin whitepaper may be present in any Mac working macOS Catalina or newer, however nobody is aware of why.
Andy Baio, a blogger with an intensive historical past within the tech group, shared an odd discovery on his weblog Waxy — the Bitcoin whitepaper may be discovered on any Mac working latest variations of macOS. It may be found through a easy Terminal command or by navigating Finder.
The person must navigate to the Macintosh HD -> System -> Library -> Picture Seize -> Units. Management-click on VirtualScanner.app and Present Bundle Contents, then open the Contents -> Sources folder -> simpledoc.pdf.
After some digging, Baio found that he wasn’t the primary to search out this hidden scanner or Bitcoin doc. In 2021, an Apple Group publish requested about it, and an odd photograph taken on Treasure Island discovered within the Digital Scanner II app.
