Title: Designing a new altcoin
Post by: wobber on December 27, 2013, 03:36:35 PM
I want to create an altcoin for economic studies and some testing (51% attack etc). It will be used in a closed environment, by me and friends but anyone can join freely.

I want it to help introducing bitcoin to others, like a test coin.

I want it to be CPU-mined only, 1 million max. If anyone can program and wants to help me, please post your price here.

Search for "testnet".

Basically you just add "-testnet" to the bitcoind or bitcoin-qt command-line.

Presto, instantly you have an altcoin to play with as you wish to do all that fun experimenting with and so on.
