Nitpick: What you're calling "Satoshi's coins" were actually mined in transactions to pubkeys rather than to pubkey hashes. Early Bitcoin transactions did not use addresses. Example from block 1: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/0e3e2357e806b6cdb1f70b54c3... You'll see at the bottom that the opcode is a PUSH / CHECKSIG rather than the later DUP / HASH160 / PUSH / EQUALVERIFY / CHECKSIG format. So this isn't true. (blockchain.info derives an address but actually the pubkeys are right there in plain sight. Have at it!) |
