I see many different types of Altcoins on CoinMarketCap.com and I was wondering how easy is it to create an Altcoin?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

We are the same i am looking too for a open source altcoin and how to create your own altcoin..
We always see every theres a new born altcoin and i would like to study how to make altcoin and it even in yobit
I will still studying it the page of addcoin in yobit here https://yobit.net/en/addcoin

Thank you for your reply.

I know there are companies out there which will create an Altcoin for you for a fee.

But I would like to learn the process of creating an Altcoin. I wish there were better resources about it online on how to go about it.

I tell you one thing that really surprises me with the Altcoins is how high the valuations are on some of them.

I see some Altcoins which have a total market cap of a million dollars or more, and they're average daily trading volume will be around $4,000 or less.

It makes no sense to me.

Two great examples which prove my point:

http://coinmarketcap.com/assets/bitcrystals/

Look at the 24 hour volumes on them and then look at their charts at the bottom of the pages.

Take a look at this gem:

Coin clonation.

I uploaded two guides made by Shakezula about coin clonation.

Or if you are a bit lazy build your coin with Walletbuilders hehe.


Cheers!

There is a website offering to create your own coin, for a fee of 0.5 BTC I think. Most of those coins have no value at all and are just scams for the developpers to raise some quick easy buck during the ICO, then dump their coin at the first exchange and move on to the next scamcoin.

Thank you very much for these links.  :)

Create a coin is not a problem.
Even here in the forum saw the subject of the creation of coins on Dashcoin platform.
It's hard to create something completely new, something that will crypto community.

I've been reading through the second PDF. They're both very helpful.

Is it possible to pre-mine coins with the instructions in the second PDF?

Please let me know when you have a chance.


Thank you.

I know NeuCoin is severely premined. This is the link for it:

http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/neucoin/

I found the source code for it at the following link:

https://github.com/NeuCoin/neucoin/blob/master/src/script.cpp

Great documents that I have found for a long time.
Thank you so much!

I started a project on github for GardenCoin.

This is the link for it:

https://github.com/gardencoin/gardencoin

I read the entire 24 page PDF(http://obscurium-crypto.xyz/downloads/cloning.scrypt.altcoins.pdf) and I tried to go to the foocoin link but it took me to a dead page. This it the link for it: https://github.com/foocoin/foocoin 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've made a bit more progress on trying to create a new coin. But I've come across an obstacle.

How does one get an IP address for a seed hole? Is there a list of free seed holes published somewhere online?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

A noob Altcoin project named Practice Coin has been started. Reviewing coin types, coin building services, guides and tutorials.

Hmm which one too rip-off clone & mod and take credit for ?
Hmmmm which one will gimme the ROI'z ?
Easiest ?
You good at coding with MS paint ?

if you want create new altcoin is easy simple and instant create altcoin
you can use walletbuilder, you can create coin without anything have skill you only write form in walletbuilder

the hardest part is changing the parameters and adding new features, do you have the skill to add masternode anonymous like zcash and all this? if not better to leave behind your idea, because will not attract anyone if you're not really lucky and people start investing for no reason, and please no ico, the alt section is plagued by this stupid ico coin, they are ruining the altboard with their scam

Great Guides. Love this thread.

Question for those who may know. Is it possible to design a coin that does not have a predetermined mining schedule (i.e. X coins per block and halved ever Y years, etc) but instead to have X number of coins premined at genesis and Y more coins mined on a non predetermined date in the future, and Z more coins mined on a still non predetermined date in the future... etc. ? The type of coin I am trying to develop would need to utilize this framework. Looking for creative ways to solve this challenge.

Any ideas?

This is the reason why there's to much flooding in the market,every one wants to have their own coin,even those who just got in the cryptocurrency recently,they did not know that there's a lot of competition and to much coding involve in setting up your wallet,but many still to go for it.

For those newbies that wants to create an alt coin. Please don't add another useless coin in the market. Though I'm not discouraging you, but if your plan is just to add another coin and get a lot of profit from it's ICO it's better to forget about it. And please don't spam the market with another coins by creating another coin.

That's right, the crap coins just annoying the crypto world, but that's why the complete newbies must learn more about the crypto before starting try to make his coin.

if you have waves, you can easely create via the waveswallet new coins, just clicking en paying 1 WAVES , and thats it,  you have your coin  :)

Creating an altcoin just for the sake of creating an altcoin is just a waste of time and effort, there may be some that fall for it, but for the majority of the users in this forum, they will realize very soon that there is no way to profit from such a thing.

I just don't get it because they are everywhere and thinks that it's good to have their very own coin. They really don't understand why there's a need to create for themselves if there are plenty already in the market that makes almost all of them that are newly create are craps.
