Bitcoin white paper found on Apple MacBooks
Last week, it was revealed that the Bitcoin white paper was found buried deep inside Apple’s (NASDAQ: AAPL) system files on computers running macOS Catalina or later.
The document, which has the filename “simpledoc.pdf,” purports to present Satoshi Nakamoto ideas for a decentralized form of currency that is based on a public ledger on all nine of its pages.
Interestingly, the self-proclaimed Satoshi Dr. Craig Wright accused the tech giant of breaching copyright laws by putting the Bitcoin white paper on MacBooks. Wright is well-known for his contentious approach to asserting intellectual property rights over Bitcoin and its underlying technology.
