Title: How long time it could take to master altcoin development? Post by: elsprt on August 31, 2017, 04:39:56 PM Could you estimate time necessary to master altcoin development for a programmer who has good knowledge of c/c++? Is it worth to spend time for mastering altcoin development?

Just tweak some parameters and you have a brand new coin. True developmnet, specifically mastering it, doesn't require knowledge of any specific language. The language is just a tool and the job usually determines the appropriate tool to use. Cryptography, multithreading, networking, gui, distributed processing, etc are the programming skills you need to master altcoin development.

Just take a look at maidsafe, for example Title: Re: How long time it could take to master altcoin development?
