This guide is well out of date now and missing key info and things that need to be done.

if you fork early coins that still have the old SSL libs ect for example you open up your coin to attacks.

This guide is outdated and should NOT be used for a production coin now.

Guys it was posted in 2013 lol just a touch out of date don't you think lol

I made a video that walks you through how to actually achieve full rename (including renaming ALL files and ALL occurances of bitcoin to your own altcoin). Watch it here: https://youtu.be/YXtu3ZIje1g
