The white paper for Bitcoin was mysteriously deleted from the beta version of the newest operating system by the world’s leading IT business.
A PDF of Satoshi Nakamoto’s Bitcoin white paper has been included with every copy of MacOS for the last five years, as was previously reported in a blog post by technologist Andy Baio on April 5.
Steve Jobs Really Satoshi Nakamoto?
Virtual Scanner II on macOS was where the file was located. Although its presence remained unexplained, it was likely “just a joke among Apple engineers,” the report said. Apple Insider noted that other, crazier conspiracy theories have surfaced, such as the idea that Apple co-founder Steve Jobs is really Satoshi Nakamoto. But there is no base for these emerging ideas so far.
Apple, however, does not share the same sense of humor and has now deleted the surprising file from the most recent release of Mac OS. Within the Image Capture program, amongst other apparently unrelated items like PDFs and photographs, was the white paper.
