Help to fork Ethereum for a community coin

[raslimali]

Hello members,

We want to create community coin for rural communities in Africa and was wondering whether someone can help to fork Ethereum so we can have a community coin that runs on its own blockchain and does not require Ether for transactions. We had a developer who created an  ERC20 token for us but it failed as it requires Ether for transactions which adds to the complexity in explaining the crypto ideas to average people. The difficulty comes that you need Ether to transfer the community coin. Something unpleasant for community members. Any help or ideas will be highly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Ether transactions are so cheap.
I believe you probably don't need to fork ethereum. Free transactions are not going to be good for your community coin, as the system may be abused.

Ethereum is like a global computer. If a global computer is wasting energy, with zero fee transactions, it is a waste of world resources. Also, the network would in risk of ddos atacks

How about using FUNCOIN?
This project is created as a tutorial ground for ETH smart contract, everything you do on this chain can be migrated to ETH blockchain directly. And right now you do not have to worry about getting the balance because there is an event happening on their forum and you will get 3 FUNC as a greeting.

here is the link to their website: https://funcoin.io/

ethereum platform in my opinion is a choice that you must try. Although using ether to make transactions. Token ERC20 is very easy to make. Just need a little ether. If you don't have it, at least there is a fundraising first to have capital. Using a platform that runs on the blockchain network itself, in my opinion the difficulty is more complex, because there will be many bugs that you have to fix. Use ERC20 and make your coin easy.

And besides you need a capital for making project how come OP is affraid for just ETH  fees just to create a token.   making your own coin is  more costly than using ethereum platform.
