Considering that mines altcoins, how about asking in the area and topic where you found the software... Ya know -- where folks interested in it/using it hang out?

Hi,

I have been following this tutorial (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/complete-guide-on-how-to-create-a-new-alt-coin-update-2019-5134256) to play around with a forked version of Bitcoin 0.18. I have created the genisis block and was looking to mine it via RPC using a Gekko NewPac I had laying around using this version of CGminer (https://github.com/vthoang/cgminer.git) which i have compiled on my pi.

After around 5 mins both nodes reported over 1600 blocks had been mined, but when I checked the balance of the wallet in the fork of QT it was zero. I checked bitcoins balance via RPC and the available balance was 0, I then checked the total supply via RPC and the coins were generated but obviously sent somewhere else as they weren't in the wallet.

Any help is appreciated as I cant make head nor tail of it and my Cpp is not the best.

Cheers
