I think the more of us that know the basics of coin code, the less scams there will be as more of us will be able to review code before blindly investing on the "faith" of a dev.

Well, because nothing ever posted online really disappears, here is a quote of the deleted post, as captured by a script when someone followed a link from it to my "how to make an altcoin" blog post on my server.

If you would like to chat about altcoin development live, and go through the learning process with others, come chat with me & over 400 others in the #_development channel in CryptoCommunity! I could use some more rookies to go through the learning curve with me.



So lately I've been trying to teach myself how to make a cryptocurrency. I've been reading through multiple guides, and have so far found things always seem outdated. I will be posting what resources I find here in the hopes that others will offer up what resources they have. If you have anything better, please share! I will try to keep this thread updated as new intel & resources get added.Bear's Den - How to Make an Altcoin http://dillingers.com/blog/2015/04/18/how-to-make-an-altcoin/ How To Clone Scrypt Based Altcoins for Fun and Profit http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=scrypt_altcoin_cloning_guide How to clone ABCCoin in to another SHA256 coin.

While we're at it, I've got a couple more articles up at this point which people making altcoins could be interested in.



Altcoins cannot use the same difficulty adjustment algorithm as bitcoin. Miners being responsive to profits and difficulty make a positive feedback loop which quickly goes nonlinear and crashes the block chain if you try. So I did an update article, where I posted code to replace the difficulty adjustment with MIDAS. MIDAS (multi interval difficulty adjustment system) as far as I'm concerned actually delivers on what KGW promised and failed to do.

And here's a post about how to add a premine (and fix it so you can SPEND it!)

What I want to know is how he thought my guide was dated?! The version of bitcoin source code I was using is still the current version!

Deleted it because I wanted to redo it in more of a guide to blockchain development over guides on how to copy paste a coin. But I've realized I don't have the time to do that and it's the same info anyway so I'm just going to restore it with a different title I think.

Check out this virtual sim city game www.MegaCryptoPolis.com . Buy some land early and watch the value go up. Easy Ether. Cheapest lots I've found are .04 ETH. Really cool use of tokens!

I'm currently looking for info on compiling the windows qt if anyone has it. Preferably using the linux box. Check out this virtual sim city game www.MegaCryptoPolis.com .

I've been thinking of weird applications of block chains. We think in terms of cryptocurrencies because bitcoin, but that's NOT by any means the only application within which we want a protocol for determining a consensus history.

I agree... I have tons of ideas utilizing blockchain tech, unfortunately this community has become so corrupted by con artists that those of us really keen on moving forward have to learn how to code first... And C++ is not exactly a language we can learn overnight.. I agree...
