Looking for an interesting little gem hidden deep in the bowels of Apple’s MacOS?

Well, look no further! Here is a little treasure map for a buried Bitcoin white paper authored by Satoshi Nakamoto explaining Bitcoin as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system.

To find it, simply use Finder in your MacOS and follow these instructions:

  1. Open Finder
  2. Click on Macintosh HD
  3. Open the System→Library→Image Capture→Devices folder
  4. Control-click on VirtualScanner.app
  5. Click on Show Package Contents
  6. Open the Contents→Resources folder inside, then
  7. Open simpledoc.pdf

And Bingo!!

Not sure why Apple or Bitcoin would do this, but it’s very interesting to say the least.

…or save yourself some time, and find the attached PDF (Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System) here:
