Merge #15454: Remove the automatic creation and loading of the default wallet 
d26f0648f1 Tell users how to load or create a wallet when no wallet is loaded (Andrew Chow)
1bee1e6269 Do not create default wallet (Andrew Chow)

Pull request description:

  Instead of automatically creating and loading a default wallet, users should instead explicitly create their wallet or load it on start.

  Builds on #19754 which provides the `load_on_startup` behavior for the GUI.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
