Any help here would appreciated. ;) No need to "build" one, there is one allready. Run bitcoin-core with -testnet1. If you have to add a node manually use addnode blockexplorer.com add. You get coins there either from testnet faucets (I got 2 BTC for testing within a few minutes) or mining (low difficulty) [1]https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin Title: Re: How to build a test BTC network ? Post by: KaChingCoinDev on May 28, 2014, 01:31:26 PM You can use the existing testnet, running bitcoin-core with -testnet.
If you wanted to create your own, you would have to clone bitcoin, change the stuff you want, and get a new genesis block / merkle root. Title: Re: How to build a test BTC network ?

No connect. :'( I think p2pool can run on the bitcoin testnet. What you need to do is start bitcoin-core with: ./bitcoind -testnet. Then, add to your p2pool startup line "--net bitcoin-testnet". (Syntax might be wrong, I don't know though.) That is what you need to do. |
