Title: Building a Windows QT Wallet for an Alt-Coin Post by: UKJimmy on June 14, 2017, 08:14:07 PM Didn't see a forum/sub-forum for alt-coin development so sorry if this is in the wrong place. I'm developing my own AltCoin to try and learn. I can't find any resources that explain how people create the windows wallet for Alt-Coins?
Sorry if this is a silly question. Thanks Title: Re: Building a Windows QT Wallet for an Alt-Coin Post by: Naruby on June 14, 2017, 08:34:12 PM There are no silly questions but here's my silly answer :)
The process is well documented: release process (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/release-process.md) secure & verifiable builds with gitian (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/gitian-building.md) Title: Re: Building a Windows QT Wallet for an Alt-Coin Post by: UKJimmy on June 14, 2017, 08:43:34 PM Thank you, from what I understand this is compiling the wallets for Bitcoin Core.
Title: Re: Building a Windows QT Wallet for an Alt-Coin Post by: achow101 on June 14, 2017, 08:58:42 PM Thank you, from what I understand this is compiling the wallets for Bitcoin Core. Nearly all altcoins are derived in some way from Bitcoin Core. Thus they inherited the process by which Bitcoin Core does its releases. By changing a couple of parameters, you should be able to use the same process that Bitcoin Core does for its releases.Title: Re: Building a Windows QT Wallet for an Alt-Coin Post by: UKJimmy on June 14, 2017, 10:41:32 PM Thank you guys, been very helpful!

If you're developing a new coin then you should be using Gitian to simplify all of the builds. Gitian can prepare the Linux, ARM, OS X and Windows wallets for you quite easily. Best Regards, -Chicago |
