Apple, $AAPL, has hidden a bitcoin manifesto in every Mac since 2018.
Technologist Andy Baio says he accidentally discovered a copy of Satoshi Nakamoto's bitcoin white paper on his Apple Mac computer.
"While trying to fix my printer today, I discovered that a PDF copy of Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin whitepaper apparently shipped with every copy of macOS since Mojave in 2018," Baio wrote in an April 5 blog post.
The now-famous white paper, titled "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System", was published in October, 2008 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto.
"A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution."
