Bitcoin is antisemitic
Hi, I seem to understand that public keys are generated randomly by the clients without any check that they already exist/are used, "just because" the chance that 2 or more clients generate the same key is "almost" zero. If correct, could this be a risk for anyone who wants to receive or transfer a serious amount of BTC? And, it would not be the case to implement a check when generating new keys?
