Title: bitcoin 0.1.0 staoshi client
Post by: alirezakaj on January 18, 2020, 02:52:26 PM
hi
i wonder how was mining  works on first  client  
as i see every block rewarded to different wallet address in 2009
so the client generate  multipe  wallets itself when mining starts?  because i see  each block mined has different address
how they did even backup private keys?

AFAIK, in the earlier versions, the reference client started mining using setgenerate and it would always mine to a new address. It doesn't necessary mean satoshi mined Bitcoins to different wallets but it could mean that satoshi mined Bitcoins to many addresses within the same wallet.

Different addresses=/Different wallets.

Do you think Satoshi might not have thought of them? I do not think so. We may think that he somehow designed everything and prepared it to bring it to today.
