Title: Token on top of existing blockchain or own blockchain? Post by: pelangi1 on February 27, 2018, 07:47:10 AM Hi all, I would like to create a coin (no ... I won't do an ICO for it) just for fun while I am learning about cryptocurrency.
It seems there are two main approaches that I can go with:
Am I right that for the first option, I don't actually need to invest on the infrastructure (server) because I will use, for example, Ethereum blockchains. While the second option I have to invest and build my own servers to run the blockchain? Also, is there any pro/cons between the two methods? Will the tokens based on other Cryptocurrency be considered "second class" compared to coin on its own blockchain? I read that people usually use the token only for ICO while they are building their own blockchain. But that's not what I want to do here. If I create tokens, eg based on Stellar lumens, then it will stay that way. Appreciate any thoughts and comments. Thanks. |
