“just by chance”
the p2pkh address being awarded the coins from the genesis block starts with A1. How fitting for a genesis.
Yes, satoshi was already thinking in p2pkh as he showed one such address to Hal as an example with his initials in Jan 2009.
“just by chance” an address he had started with NS, the initials for Nakamoto Satoshi. And Satoshi said that that one could brute force initials to create vanity addresses. He “just thought” of it.
“Just by chance.”
all just by chance i’m sure.
nothing to look into or look at. just random
