Topic: How to reduce difficulty for a testnet-in-a-box? (Read 1030 times)
I'm not familiar with the actual blockchain length included "in-a-box", but I would assume if done right it just has a genesis block with difficulty 1. The mining difficulty is halved on testnet so the actual mining probability is twice main net. You could find the code that makes testnet mining 2x easier and change that to 10x easier on all clients.
I'm curious is there any way to reduce difficulty for the self contained testnet in a box? I want it to become feasible to develop a bitcoin related app just on a macbook.
