Getting a list of public addresses from block zero

Question

If I have a local blockchain downloaded, is it possible to use the bitcoin-core rpc commands to query a block? For example the genesis block to get a list of all the public addresses used in that block? If it is possible, which commands do I need to use?

Answer 1

You can use two sequenced command - getblockhash and getblock.

• 1st, getblockhash, take block height, and returns hash of the block on specific height in the current main chain.
• 2nd take hash and returns block.

From linux command line to get block #10000, you can run:

$ bitcoin-cli getblock `bitcoin-cli getblockhash 100000`
