A way to initialize a main node (a new blockchain) with a multisig instead of a singlesig?

Question

I was wondering if there is a way to start a new blockchain with a multisig in its wallet.dat instead of a simple singlesig address. Anything we can do with the parameters to make this change?

 

Thanks.

Not for now, but you can easily do this after the wallet is created by making a new address via getnewaddress and then creating and storing the multisig address using addmultisigaddress. Please consult the documentation for the Bitcoin Core API on how to use these commands.
