Where is blockchain located on mac for Bitcoin-Qt?

1

My machine could not handle the Bitcoin-Qt blockchain and i need to delete it but i cannot find where it is located. I have tried to cd to ~/.bitcoin and ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/ but no luck. Where else could i find it to delete the blockchain?

Quoting https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Data_directory#Mac :

Mac

By default Bitcoin will put its data here:

~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/

You can access that folder by opening a new Finder window --> then by going to "Go" --> "Go to Folder..." (or pressing command + shift + G), and then pasting the above path into the window that appeared.

Try to type into the Search window of the Finder "Bitcoin". Pretty sure you will see "Bitcoin QT" logo first in the list of the files found. Drag and drop it into the Trash folder and then empty it. The same way delete all the program files with "bitcoin" word in their names. It is not necessary that Library will contain the Bitcoin Core folder, that's why I uninstalled the Bitcoin Core app this way.
