Whoever creates an easy to follow guide to create a crypto currency by forking the litecoin source will get 5 Litecoin from me + Donations from anybody else who finds it useful.

Why?

This will put an end in the odd currencies showing up and everyone rushing in to mine it,

Maybe path way to a better currency,

Improve Litecoin's source by developers being able to interchange sources.


Let's do this!


Guide must be written 6 hours of me posting this, otherwise bounty is off.

It shouldn't take long to write it, its not a hard procedure too, make sure you include how to change the key features etc.


After 6 hours it is up to the community to set there own bounty Smiley

The easier it is, the less seriously these alt-coins will be taken.

Its already hard enough keeping enough with all these failed coins, deciding on whether its even remotely worth mining to sell 1-3 days later.

Better Idea: lets collect some coins together with different people and let´s search for someone who is able to develope this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=202784.0
I´ll put 5 LTC into the pot, too then.

www.Bitcoin-Tools.de - Price Alert & Calculator [OUTDATED!]
A little tool to keep you informed or wake you up, if Mt.Gox reaches a defined price level and a calculator to convert  BTC or USD based on live Prices. It´s not working any more, because of Mt.Gox... but it was fun to code that time... keeping this link just for reminding... Thanks to everyone for donations done that time!

Not really, actual good coins will obviously stand out as obviously if they are good, nature will take its place.

I am working on is as part of my Thesis, i agree if its widely available, it will be easier to pick good over bad. Theres no reason not to leat everyone make coins, the more undertanding, the easier it will be to pick winners and losers.

Alas, I have the following working:

Customizing the code, compiling the coind, connecting them, creating a genesis block and hash.

I can't get past this yet, not sure how to get the actual coins mining yet.

I can successfully generate the merkel hash and genesis block, then you must recompile the coind so it has the correct genesis block and hash. This works, it makes the coind run from the command line and addnode or -connect and an ip will get more than one coin talking to each other, you can see it with coind getinfo, but I cant actually figure out how to get the built in or minerd to start making coins...neither will connect even wioth multiple nodesrunning. I already have screenshots and command for Ubuntu/Debian to this pnt, I figure out the last bit and a guide could be done this afternoon or at least a 90% guide.

Sounds good so far, did you write how to compile coinqt?

also the build in miner in the litecoin client doesn't work anyway, you need to set a port other crypto's don't use to did you mention?

i remember reading somewhere you have to edit the .conf file and add rpc info and allow localhost to connect then mine using cgminer or some sort, not sure though.

I have done that, edited the ports in source and in the coin.conf, I can see it listening on the right port using netstat -a but cant get anything to connect to it to mine. Yes I have a QT compilation piece too but its for Linux at the moment, havent done a windows bit yet. Ive tried nearly everything...is there a command to boostrap the coin creation process? The SMC admin told me once multiple nodes connected mining could be possible but alas, it doesnt seem to work. I am DYING to know the secret.
