- Virtual Scanner II in macOS uses the Bitcoin Whitepaper as a sample.
- Satoshi vanished from the internet around the same time Steve Jobs died.
After finding Bitcoin’s whitepaper in the macOS, there is controversial talk going on in the crypto world that Steve Jobs is actually the real Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin.
On April 5, technologist Andy Baio shared a blog after discovering the Bitcoin white paper while attempting to fix his printer. Everything started there. According to Baio, the tool named Virtual Scanner II uses the Bitcoin white paper as the sample document. The whitepaper is titled Bitcoin-A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System, which published in 2008.
Baio’s revelation raised a question of whether Satoshi, the Bitcoin creator who was never identified, may have been Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple.
Following that, Lark Davis, the Bitcoin investor, and blogger tweeted a mysterious point. Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared from the internet around the same period Steve Jobs passed away. Satoshi disappeared from the internet on December 2010, and Steve Jobs passed in October 2011.
Connecting the dots, it is suspected that the co-founder of Apple, Steve Jobs, is the actual creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto. However, as of now, there is no actual evidence to prove Steve as Satoshi. But this news is creating curiosity in the crypto space.
