It's quite a difficult situation and that depends on a lot of factors.

The coin won't be valuable if you are alt mining and no one will be interested in it btw.

Hi,

I created my own coin and I'm playing around with it.
I managed to follow a tutorial and get my miner running and generating blocks with two machines.

*But* the coins aren't showing up when i type the command: mycoind getbalance "" 0

Are the coins not showing because I'm mining all by myself and nobody is confirming them?
Or is there another reason why I'm not seeing my coins?

Thanks for your help!

lol, you pre-mining there, buddy?

Chances are that the nSubsidy is set to 0 until a certain amount of blocks have been mined. If you forked smallchange, take a look at line 834 :in main.cpp

Code:

if(nHeight < x) // no block reward for the first x blocks
nSubsidy = 0;

Thanks for your reply.

No, there doesn't seem to be a similar condition in the code taken from CryptoShekel...
