If you take a look at this forum you'll probably see that it's not very hard ;D. Title: Re: How hard to make own coin ? Post by: Del137 on January 10, 2014, 06:24:47 PM Like making another bicycle ;D
Too few really innovative currencies... and i think future will be with scrypt-jane (less heat, less temperature, scrypt asic proof etc) and even more complicated algorithms, maybe even also with BOINC implemented. Title: Re: How hard to make own coin ?

That sounds like clever stuff, and I hope someone does make a currency/BOINC thing. Right now someone is already working on this, I feel it. Title: Re: How hard to make own coin ?

If you take a look at this forum you'll probably see that it's not very hard ;D. Do I just get the litecoin code, swap out a few bits for my new branding, and run it ? Is it that noob-easy ? There must be a how-to somewhere ? Title: Re: How hard to make own coin ?

Not really if its just for lulz, your PC/laptop on 24/7 running the wallet will be enough if you get a static IP to give as an addnode=The advantage of using a server is the 24/7 running and its static IP, you can then free your PC/laptop to do other things.
