POW to Hybrid conversion

[ironfeast]

Hi there, I am a student and a cryptocurrency enthusiast. I few months back I watched a video series on youtube who taught how to create your altcoin. The series was based on litecoin and hence uses POW. I used it for my major project and my interest grew. I then studied further to make X11 and X13 coins. Though the process was very simple, I learned many things in the process. Now I am seeing POS as a buzz, can anybody suggest how can I convert my existing altcoin to POS+POW. Help Appreciated.

I don't know exactly how to convert to a hybrid consensus mechanism, but maybe looking at a coin that employs it will help? I found this:

...which is an open source project whose Github repo can be found here:

Hope that helps!
