    The bitcoin whitepaper was removed recently from a prominent bitcoin website in response to a legal challenge from an idiot/scammer. Luckily, the whitepaper is embedded in the a transaction and can be read with a little programming.

    I’d like to be able to click a button (perhaps in the menu bar?) in the GUI that will automatically decode the whitepaper transaction and open the PDF in my default PDF reader.

    I’ve considered doing a search for “Bitcoin Whitepaper” but I believe that is bad OpSec.

    NACK, there’s no need for this inside of the GUI.
