Hello everyone, I am trying to learn about blockchain and setup my own crypto currency by forking an existing coin. For this end I have follow this tutorials:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3345808.0https://www.hackster.io/pjdecarlo/how-to-make-a-cryptocurrency-using-litecoin-v0-15-source-fb5e82#toc-prerequisites-2I have successfully compiled my modified version on my local machine, a VM and two vps instances, all of them run and are able to connect to each other. (that is using altcoin-cli getpeerinfo)
I am also able to run altcoin-cli generate to mine some coins and they appear locally on the machines, I also compiled the qt wallet so that I can send coins to other addresses.
the problem is that the nodes dont seem to be syncing with each other. that is that while I can mine on both my machine and the VM when I send coins from one to another one address, the transaction gets confirmed but I can't see the balance being received on the other machine.
more over, when running getblockchaininfo on the two vps running this is the result:

I have searched online to get an idea of the inner workings of litecoin, but Cant see why i would not work, thank you for any help you can provide.
