The bare owned base contract, deployed alone at 326 bytes on 12 March 2016.
Historical Significance
This is the two line ownership mixin from the ethereum.org token tutorial, deployed by itself rather than inherited by anything. All it does is record its deployer and expose a changeOwner setter behind an onlyOwner modifier. At 326 bytes of runtime it is a deliberate deployment of almost nothing, and the shape of it suggests someone working through the tutorial one code block at a time and pressing deploy on each.
Context
Homestead had activated two days earlier at block 1,150,000.
Key Facts
Description
The ownership base contract, deployed on its own with nothing inheriting from it. It records the account that created it in a public owner slot and exposes transferOwnership(address), which only the current owner may call and which hands the role to another address.
That is the whole contract: 326 bytes of runtime, two entry points, and no funds, no balances and nothing else to protect. A contract of this shape is meant to be inherited, so a standalone deployment is somebody compiling and deploying the base by itself.
