Creating a New Coin for Large Online Community

[Jasmein]

I'm a developer and have been asked to create a new coin for a very large online community.

I'm been looking at the source of Bitcoin and other coins, and trying to get up to speed.

Is there any documentation which covers coin creation?  A list of steps in creating a new coin based on existing open source?

I appreciate any help I get.

Jas.

Making a new coin for a specific community is useless. Stick to the things that are already around. If you come up with something new - that could be interesting und useful for a crypto currency - then go for it. But don't just copy the entire source code and rename it into a scamcoin. We don't need that.

People who can't develop coins start saying that don't make coin do something for the community. It doesn't make sense. If you can't do something then you definitely have no right to tell someone not to do that too. This is the only thing I hate here , everyone disrespect the developers. If you can't appreciate someone then you have no right to disrespect him.
