Question to the Bitcoin wizards out there. Why do I need to sync the entire Bitcoin blockchain if all I want is to create a new wallet and receive in that wallet? Can't the deamon be syncing in the background while my new wallet is good to go?

You can do a FastSync but you'd need to trust whoever gave you the blocks

But do I need blocks to create and address and receive?
