Title: Coingen and New Altcoin Mining Post by: squavez on January 04, 2014, 05:34:09 PM I'm new to mining and I recently came across Matt Corallo's Coigen.io website where you can create your own altcoin (as discussed here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=396991.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=396991.0)).
It seems pretty interesting and I thought it would be fun to create an altcoin or mine some other altcoins created with Coingen. Does anyone know how to actually mine these new coins? I cannot seem to find a guide anywhere on this site or on Coingen's site. I am used to connecting to a pool with cgminer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
