So I heard you want your own altcoin but keep getting stuck or confused. Skip the hard steps and do it the easy way  Wink

If I missed a step or two, I'll put up a new one with that step included and edit this post

Enjoy!

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Thanks, Spots

I will give it a try and see what happens? Though, I am not a real techno!
But, I have wanted to try it for a year now. The worst I can do is f* it up Grin

Peace, Dennis

Thanks for your work here, I think this is a much better idea than people using coin builders without any idea how the code looks. Doing a similar tutorial from Dogecoin (for non-PoS coins) is on my todo list, especially as I know there's a lot of coins based on Doge that need a refresh.

No problem. This is just a basic guide to someone who wants to do one quick with minimal effort

When you finish yours, send me a link and I'll add it to this post, as well, if you want

how much did you pay for this account?

So spots sold his account? I wonder what new sock-puppet account(s) he is going to reappear under.

You remind me of the fat girl from high school that would go spread rumors about everyone you hated. There's plenty of threads to talk shit about me in; please leave this one clean for people to learn in

thanks for the guide,

any chance you can post a section on how to build a standard windows QT wallet? That's the step that is most difficult for me...

Good news, bad news; compiling directly on Windows is in fact madness, and will end in tears. What I do and I'm 99% convinced everyone does is use Gitian, which is tricky to set up but automates everything. Try following https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/gitian-building.md to set up a build environment. There's some hiccups with the very latest Bitcoin that I can't find the details of how to workaround right now, but unless you're building Bit or Doge they shouldn't apply.

Doesn't help with PoS, but if you want to take a look at the recent history of Dogecoin you can see us rebuilding the coin from scratch around Bitcoin Core 0.11: https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin/commits/1.10-branding/src

That is exactly what this post will show you how to do. These coins will have both PoW and PoS

Now I don't feel so stupid. I was trying my hand at compiling wallets this weekend, and almost got to the point of punching my monitor. I'll try gitian, next weekend when I have time. Grin

I know the feeling  Wink... I have actually tried to compile windows wallets on my old 32 bit laptop, my new 64 bit server and on linux using MXE... Couldn't get it to work... I'm following the gitain install manual as we speak... I don't know if i'll have enough time to actually try compiling today, but if i do, i'll report back

In the meantime, i succesfully set up a gitian build environment... Took me about 5-6 hours to get it up and running... In the end, i followed this tutorial: https://dashtalk.org/threads/how-to-gitian-build-dash-under-debian-jessie-using-lxc.5397/ and succesfully built dash  Grin

At the moment, i put the sourcecode of my previous attempt on github, and i'm struggeling with gitian to build the qt wallet for windows... So far no luck  Embarrassed
If i succeed in building everything for windoze, i might make a full tutorial, based on the tutorial from igotspots, but with compile instructions....
