Definition · Mining

Qu’est-ce que Coinbase transaction ?

The first transaction in every block, which creates the block subsidy and pays it, plus the block's fees, to the miner.

It has no inputs, because it creates coins rather than moving them. Its output cannot be spent until 100 further blocks have been mined, which protects against reorganisation.

The coinbase field also carries arbitrary data — which is where the genesis block's Times headline lives, and where pools identify themselves today.

Souvent mal interprété

It has nothing to do with the exchange of a similar name. The term predates it.
