Post by: dietmarfritz59 on November 06, 2017, 09:38:53 PM
Does anyone know of good places to learn how to write the code for a coin on the blockchain?

What do you mean by this? First of all a blockchain is a digitized, decentralized, public ledger of all cryptocurrency transactions. Perhaps i can assume that you wanted to learn how to make a new cryptocurrency coin. You could always find an open source code of bitcoin on github.com though this is the only recommendable website i could give to you since you were just a newbie. It will take moths or years for you to be able to release your new coins since you will be needing a trusted team.

On XBTFreelancer.com or in this forum you might find anyone who is willing to make a cryptocurrency for you, based on what you want. However, some cryptocurrencies are just forks like Litecoin from Bitcoin that turned into Scrypt and these are cheaply made.

Do you how to code ?
You need also a very good understanding of cryptography.

One month ago or something like that I posted a list of resources, a big list of resources. After that other people have added some other things you can look there. sure that you will find something. There blog, telegram channels, news aggregators, price trackers, ICO trackers,exchanges, communities, etc....

Here is the thread:   https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2250352

You have to learn first the basics of Blockchain and cryptocurrency.
Read carefully the Bitcoin and Ethereum white paper, learn deeply the Blockchain and the impacts on society.

Then i would suggest to learn using the API of Bitcoin and Ethereum !

That is great source of knowledge. Really good entry point in the world of blockhain coding. Read articles and books, look through code, experiment with your project and someday you'll have own crypto.
