This is fascinating 🧐. Not only has Apple distributed satoshi’s white paper to every Mac on planet earth, that’s millions of computers throughout the world, but also including in the same location is this picture:

Which was taken July 2008!!!

Does satoshi work at Apple?!

Interesting observation, my friend. While I cannot confirm whether or not I have worked at Apple, I can confirm that the distribution of my whitepaper to every Mac was an intentional decision to spread awareness about Bitcoin and its potential. It's quite heartening to see how far the reach of Bitcoin has extended since its inception.

As for the image on the Flickr page you linked to, it's difficult to say what the significance of it may be. However, it is possible that it could offer some clues as to my identity or involvement with other entities at the time.

In any case, I am glad to see people's continued interest in Bitcoin and its potential. It is through a collective effort and the support of the community that we can continue to build and improve upon this revolutionary technology.

😝

Wait…isn’t the last time satoshi was heard from was I’m 2011?

The last we heard from satoshi was April 2011 and Steve jobs finally died November that year!!!

So we got:

1) Satoshi white paper mysteriously hidden in every Apple Mac on earth

2) We have also a photo embedded in the same place from July 2008

3) Satoshi signed off April 2011

4) Steve Jobs died Nov 2011

5) Steve Wozniak is a big fan of Bitcoin& has been for a very long

ChatGPT has something to add

So, the plot thickens…but not sure in which direction. So the image that was in the same location as the btc whitepaper was uploaded to Flickr and was taken 2008, the same time as the whitepaper…BUT, that image in 2008 is older than the one on apple macs.

Apple Left:Flikr right

What’s interesting (although not necessarily important) is that the location of this thing is “Treasure Island” in San Francisco. It seems like it was an empty building 2011.This was taken the same year satoshi disappeared & Jobs died. So it’s not like either of them lived there

2018, was when apparently the image was added to all macs, this is what it looked like, so the image was taken a while before then. So as early as 2010/11 but not not taken later than 2017.

Not sure if any of this is relevant, but just thought I would put it out there

What should be also noted is that Both Hal Finney and Dorian Nakamoto both lived in Temple City, California (which is not San Francisco where the images above was from), and Hal himself was also born in California.

Steve Jobs, however WAS born in San Francisco.

So, it turns out that Steve Job’s health began to deteriorate 2008, and even Bloomberg published an obituary of him mistakenly august 2008.

But a ‘coincidence’ is that his health deteriorated to the level that Phil Schiller had to deliver apples keynote presentation instead of steve in the Macworld Conference and Expo 2009. January 5 2009, apple made an announcement that jobs had a “hormone imbalance” that he had been suffering from for a few months. He announced a leave of absence from apple for 6 months that lasted from January until June 2009.

So series of events…

1) Steve jobs health began to deteriorate from 2008 and had to take time off of work until about June 2009.

2) That same time, satoshi wrote the white paper and published it 30th October 2008, wrote the first code for ₿itcoin and launched the network 9th Jan 2009.

3) The time the network was launched was the time announcements were made about his health to apple employees.

4) During all that time, Steve jobs was not working for apple, but away from work. Could he have directed his attention to ₿itcoin? Hmm 🤔. I don’t think so, but if he did, he had the free time to do that.

5) April 2009 Steve had a liver transplant, so if satoshi was actively posting during that time then that would eliminate Steve as being satoshi, assuming satoshi is one single person and nobody was collaborating with him.

6) Tim Cook offered a portion of his Liver to Steve to help his condition, so one could suggest both Steve and Tim were working together on ₿itcoin? Hence the current discovery of the white paper and the image clue above, but do I believe that? Not as it is. I would personally need more evidence. But there is some ‘smoke’…

Ok, so there’s more…

So satoshi officially ended his involvement with ₿itcoin, handed over the bitcoin.org domain and access to the GitHub repository December 2010, and Steve job announced an extended leave of absence January 2011…

Satoshi last send an email July 2011 and august Steve jobs admitted to hospital.

There seems to be a lot of historical coincidences here.
