MacOS (formerly known as Mac OS X) is an operating system developed by Apple Inc. for its Macintosh line of personal computers, servers and mobile devices. It was introduced in 2001 as the successor to the classic Mac OS, which had been Apple’s primary operating system since 1984.
MacOS is based on a Unix-like core called Darwin and includes many open source technologies such as the Apache web server, PHP scripting language and GCC compiler collection. It also provides support for popular scripting languages such as Python, Ruby and Perl. The latest version of macOS is macOS Big Sur, released in November 2020.
In terms of cryptocurrency management on macOS systems, users have multiple options depending on their needs:
