Title: My own bitcoin network Post by: MatthieuC06 on June 09, 2011, 02:46:12 PM Hi,
I guess it is technically possible to modify the client to initiate a new bitcoin-like network, is it ? I guess I have to change the port that is used, to avoid collision with real bitcoin network. Then I have to install at least 2 clients on a LAN that will see each other. I've seen the genesis hash in the main.cpp, probably I have to generate a new one ? What else ? Can anyone help to make this experiment ? :) Regards Matthieu Title: Re: My own bitcoin network Post by: MatthewLM on June 09, 2011, 02:51:10 PM The point?

I'd like to see it live and see how it grows. Title: Re: My own bitcoin network Post by: foo on June 09, 2011, 03:11:46 PM http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/testnet-in-a-box/

I'll give a try ! Title: Re: My own bitcoin network Post by: Forp on June 17, 2011, 07:57:41 PM Thank you very much ! I'll give a try ! Any results yet? I am asking since I am doing a similar experiment. I am in the process of discovering testnet and this hint here, but I would be interested in a completely independent fresh start, ie. one, which starts with its own genesis block as well. We might share experiences!? Title: Re: My own bitcoin network Post by: Maged on June 17, 2011, 08:25:37 PM Follow these instructions to create a new genesis block:
