Set the number of keys/addresses in a wallet

0

Is there a way to configure the number of keypairs (or addresses) created by bitcoind or bitcoin-qt?

I've looked at the sample bitcoin.conf file, but failed to find the relevant parameter.

You get a new keypair for each address. There is nothing to configure.Pieter Wuille 2017-04-03T17:44:53.267

Finally found it:

# Pre-generate this many public/private key pairs, so wallet backups will be valid for
# both prior transactions and several dozen future transactions.
#keypool=100
