I was going through some old thread , When I found below

Bitcoins aren't stored anywhere because they don't exist.
This is actually correct. Apologies for the over-simplification. Bitcoins are indeed abstractions; they exist only in the form of ‘unspent transaction outputs’, UTXOs. Allow me to try to clarify with the help of a blockchain explorer:



Actually I am bit confused with this quoted transaction  as it is "No Inputs (Newly Generated Coins)   ".
I assumed that block reward for miner should contain all the transactions done in the block and not like that something generated without "Input".
I also read somewhere that miner get the block rewards not instantaneously but after other 99  blocks added. Is this block reward is triggered by addition of  the more 99 blocks afterwards?
But still I think some input should be there if some unspent transactions are created.
