Hi,

does someone have hints/suggestions on how to create a new coin based on the latest Bitcoin codebase but using Neoscrypt instead of SHA as cryptographic algorithm?
Would it be overly difficult?
Is the cryptographic part neatly separated from the rest of the code in Bitcoin or does it have ramification all over the code?
Where can I find the Neoscrypt code separated from a coin?

Thanks

You would have to ask the Gulden or Litecoin development teams. Only 2 coins that have updated but Gulden has done a lot more development on its code base then litecoin so will be easier to copy litecoin.

I think the only coin using Neoscrypt is Feathercoin.
Gulden and Litecoin both use the original Scrypt.
Am I wrong?

In that case I think I will have to contact the developer of Neoscrypt/Feathercoin for advice:

I see now that also Phoenixcoin, from the same developer, uses Neoscrypt.
