Building a coin from the scratch

[Shigo]

What does it take or cost to hire a programmer to build a coin from the scratch?

[One Man Band]

A programmer would charge you between 5-20k+

Then, presuming your project isn't just another clone of someone elses idea, you risk the chance of them stealing your idea.

Or you could do all the research yourself (the route i'm taking) and do it for virtually zero capital outlay.

Altcoins are the Wild West, but ideas are the Gold.

lol 20k when I remember there were programs that can make you altcoin for free, or buy here charging 0.2 by for an altcoin, 20k is a scam even for a very good altcoin with new also and nice roadmap
