I was asking the same questions some 3 weeks back, here is what I gather:
1. If you intend to hire someone to do all the work, be prepared to pay around USD$5k. On the other side, you can DIY, like I did & learn a few things in the process.
2. I think a week or so, if just cloning another coin. It took me less than a week to clone my own coin, without added new features.
3. Services section. However, newbie section also can.
Regards.
Topic: Cost of Altcoin Development? (Read 487 times)
Lately when I have some time to spare I have been messing around with some of the scripts and guides available on how to build an altcoins. Since I would need Linux for compiling etc I have not progressed too far, I am just learning as a newbie. I do however like the idea of custom coin built that I can use, mores so for personal projects, for example I am working on a video game at the moment. I would just like to ask a few questions in regards to altcoin development. These questions are very general, I assume answers will vary from developer to developer, any thoughts and maybe even some experienced feedback would be great. Here are some questions:
What kind of budget would one expect for a basic coin (clone), and what about something more innovative (custom)?
How long would one expect a developer to create an altcoin in general?
Also if I were to pursue a project like this, where is a good place to find developers?
Thanks in advanced for any thoughts, also please don't complain about the idea of another altcoin, I am more interested in this as a portfolio project lol.
