I am paying 0.5BTC for VIDEO tutorial how to create a Scrypt or X11 CryptoCurrency. (Also hosting part).

Never been done this

I know of Scypt, but what is an X11 CryptoCurrency ? Can u plz point me to some link ?

There are many tutorial available with pics  for eg: http://dogecoin.ga/how_to_create_scrypt_based_altcoins.html
Video tutorial is good but I doubt anyone can add all the details needed to make a coin in video. (You still have to rely on text)

Nice tutorial :D.

Awesome tutorial. And the idea behind the video is doing some talking and showing it in real-time instead of just text and screenshots. I prefer the video format (even though both essentially give the same information).

+1
I can donate 0.1BTC to person who creates video tutorial.

Alright, I'll get right too it!

I've already built a test coin using pretty much the same method above, and found it can be done in 30ish minutes, however for a video. Let me ask you guys that are wanting this to be done:

1. Do you need this video a certain length?
2. Do you want documentation affixed to this as well? (I would think so :))
3. Time frame you would need this done?

I'm not one of the hiring guys, but if my personal opinions count as well:

1) I think any length that gets the information across is good enough. If you can knock it all out in 5m, great. If it takes an hour, same thing. The goal is to learn all the intricacies
2) This is a definite. Including source code that is altered (so as to follow along)
3) I can't answer that one

I do appreciate the feedback, yes 5 minutes is very ideal, however for the knowledge on one to learn how to do this without prior knowledge of any programming whatsoever and just want to start up a clone coin... 5 minutes wouldn't cut it, I'm thinking about 30-90 minutes worth of educational video, which I'll start working on here. Since seeing so many people are clueless when it comes to this, and I for one love to help others out in all regards, so I'll be taking up this project. :)

I have every development platform out there from *nix (Debian, BSD, Gentoo, Fedora, Ubuntu, CentOS), OSx, Windowz (back to 3.2) along with Sony Vegas Pro 13 for the rendering and final product. So I'm happy to start on this project in my free time and get this up ASAP.

All the best

This sounds awesome! Are you going to be covering other aspects as well, like compiling the various clients, getting the first block mined, how to set up nodes, etc.?

I would think being able to do this in stages, mainly getting them the ability of setting up their first coin project is the key.

Moving onto how to mine their first block and ensuring that the coin supports LONGPOLL or not and etc. I would imagine those should be follow-up videos? What do you think?

Mainly concentrating on the "core" which is how to clone a coin and getting all of their basis covered in this video is the the main part first, and a follow-up video on how to mine, where to setup their nodes and whatever else in other segments. Too much in one video might make the end-user have a breakdown/meltdown. :P

I think if you want to do this in the most effective way, it will be through multiple videos, each one covering a different aspect. For example:

1) A straight Litecoin or Bitcoin clone
2) Adding in x feature
3) Compiling for x OS (each one can be separate)
4) //
5) ///

Basically do it in bite-sized chunks so people can choose what they are interested in. It also makes it easier to manage it for you.

I am teaching how to make scrypt coins just for 0.5 BTC.

Create video tutorial. :D

I teach through Skype and Teamviewer. There is no need of video tutorial.

You're not the only one on the internet that teaches people for a fee, these guys are wanting online video tutorials so others can learn this for free using a "visual." If you have to derail a thread with your "There is no need of video tutorial." in another words, no one should learn this for FREE? That clearly shows where your business model is.

I couldn't agree more.

Personal training has its merits for sure (the 1 on 1 approach), but for a lot of us, we just want to learn.

Yes, you can make coin for free. 0.5BTC is 200$ :/

I'd be happy to give it a shot, but im 16 so my voice might be annoying. Is this ok with you guys?

Sure! Its OK!

Of course! :D

Guys, is there any tutorial i can read up for this and turn it into a video?

Yes, here:

np

Is there an alternative to Digital Ocean? I will have to pay money xD and i'm 16. :/

Any BTC alternatives?

Technically you can host things on your own. DO is just a VPS. But you will want a real host if you're launching an actual coin.

There is https://bithost.io/

Thank you

I didn't test it.

I can do this! Is it still open?

noooooooo, i have just downloaded the required PS'es and am working on the VM. Please xD

There is one problem... I have only 0.4 BTC ... 

Hello, I can give you 0.1 so you will have enough. PM me your address.

While I like that you were offering to pay for a video that (I presume) is going to be released for free... I have to question why you'd offer more than you had, without asking others to help donate as well.

Nice question. I had only 0.2 BTC other 0.3BTC I should get if I sell some other cryptocurrency.. But the price felt down so I only had  0.4BTC but 1211 sent me 0.1 :D. I will pay him back.

Ahhh, okay. Thanks for clarifying that; it was confusing me there, :p. And thanks, 1211! Now we just have to hope someone can make a decent video...

Np. I paid because I belive in this cool idea (video tutorial). I Hope that we will have video soon.

So how is the process? :D

downloaded CDEbian, took me ages to track down the ISO, but then it was password protected and wont work, now i have to get debian and try it from there. Sorry

:D
Better than nothing.

Video tutorial to create your own coin ? :)

You should read few coding book instead of watching videos. :)

Isn't?

If you're a total noob at programming, you could always go here: http://coingen.bluematt.me/ and then you could hire a programmer, possibly even on this forum to update it for you after you make your coin.

Creating a cryptocurrency requires lots of experience in C++ and of course a good knowledge of cryptography so you can make genuinely unique coin and not just a clone, also, if you have no programming experience, I wouldn't recommend making a cryptocurrency unless you have at least a bit of money for hosting etc.

CoinGen is shit.

<3

It's something to get them started though and cheaper than paying for a personal programmer.

They aren't asking for a personal programmer. They're asking for someone to create a PUBLIC video that shows people how to make their own coins. Two vastly different things. This is a public service, not a private one. What you're recommending is a private one and would do nothing to help the public.

Yep

Oh shit, how did I misread that? :( I thought he meant he wanted to create a cryptocurrency >_< If it's a video on it he could probably get into contact with the various altcoin developers and talk to them about it, maybe even do an interview perhaps and have them explain things.

So when it is going to be released?

Oh, I thought this bounty was closed. Is it still open?

Someone said they were working on it, but nothing has been completed to my knowledge. So as far as I'm aware it's still open right now (being that there's no way to know if the previous person is going to follow through or not).

Okay.

What does he mean by "hosting"? Does he mean how to host a DNS node?

I think the hosting is like... how to set up whatever is needed to generate the Genesis block and allow others to start mining it (I'm not sure if this would be the node or not, though; my knowledge in this area is limited).

Basically the tutorial should go over how to create a coin and allow others to mine it.

Here it is!

If you feel like donating please send some btc to: 1PzBvsph4doERkGsnSLCUvyDJfpZyi9WiB

So...thar u go! :D

Good job :D Congrats!

Thanks, feel free to leave any feedback if you have any! :D

Why did the OP not send the .5 BTC?

OP has not been online since june 1st...

Tutorial is not full! I need the full tutorial.

Would paying half for now be sufficient since I completed half of the tutorial?
I do need something to pay my hosting fees for the project as well, and I provided you with plenty of information to get the ball rolling.

Do you have any additional information about this?

I can give you 0.05... Its that ok? Or not? Do you need more? please answer

I think 0.1 btc will cover everything, of its too much then 0.05 btc will have to do,  thanks :)

Wait I've seen 2 people claiming to be OP here, beware man, why will you take .05 you've done a lot more work than that!

Sent! https://blockchain.info/tx/36890e1c7eadfdff2dc6d249d940dbd45f6f2ff661ef843c958e55bfeb5f33d9

Alright, here is part 2: http://youtu.be/7pqHn5u8hrY (video was just uploaded)

OP Please deliver btc to: 1PzBvsph4doERkGsnSLCUvyDJfpZyi9WiB
Thanks 1211 for your contribution btw :D

Wow, can I ask you, how many parts you are planning to make? Its nice video, I hope the OP pays you fast.

Is the OP active? It's interesting to know if he paid.  :P

I consider this tutorial to be the last. Parts 1 and 2 went from building the crypto to creating a QT wallet. I unfortunately do not have access to Mac OS X atm and I would imagine it would be in my best interest to wait until I can get my hands on Yosemite (prolly gonna hackintosh) before I create a tutorial on making QT wallets for it.

As for windows it is not too different to compile a QT wallet than in linux, I figured it would be better simply doing both wallet compilers in one video, however it probably will not be my top priority.

As I said before though, I do consider tutorial to be complete, it shows you how to make your crypto source code, premine, and not to mention QT wallets can still be generated, along with the fact that you can run the crypto via the command line interface as opposed to the GUI interface.

He hasn't been active for almost two weeks, still wasn't paid :/ I need to pay off my hosting bills I've accumulated during the project too, I still have an outstanding balance X_X

pm me plz

PM Sent!

and miha333 please send the 0.5 BTC, I have an outstanding bill with the host than must be paid :(

Partially it all has to do with whether people are more visual learners or "textbook" learners so im sure the two options are good for their respective audience equally.

the video idea is good because you can just pause and then replay as much as you want. but either way there is a lot involved in this type of thing so you cant truly portray it all through a video.

It's true, someone can make a crypto by copying the actions I performed in the video, but the question is will the viewer truly understand the concept, or just replicate the same actions?

I think i can make this video. Are you still paying 0.5BTC for it?

Already been done, I have completed it. OP still however has not paid :(

Don't wanna sound too whiny but...
OP still hasn't paid and I have hosting bills to pay off... And its been over a week since I posted and he hasn't signed on...

I should've used escrow :/

Thanks for the link! It is a good tutorial. Only problem is that the scammers are increasing :( .

Kindly,

I think that the problem is OP doesn't even know about this video as he wasn't online since June 16th.

OP is well aware of the video's release, I sent him PM's stating the relative time of release and I have hosting bills due NOW and OP isn't on to give me the funds. I have no idea if it's being done maliciously or OP simply doesn't have time but regardless, I need my hosting bill to be paid.

I have to say that if the OP doesn't have the patience to read through docs and understand cryptos well enough to carry out the process on his/her own, I doubt very much that any crypto created will be worth very much.  Nonetheless, this does seem like an easy way for someone to make 0.5BTC by just making a video for the OP.

Wait a few more days and he'll be back with his own altcoin.

so...what should I do? I'm kind of in debt cause of miha333 and I'm still out 0.5 BTC
