Thanks for the Tip roslinpl,

i will just create a coin for myself, so this is not for a real purpose but for learning.

I will keep you updated.

I believe you are very good developer but if you want to know what I am thinking about it - do not create another coin.

This is not a best time to do this.
Wait.
Learn some more...

And do not create another coin.


And if you will create a coin even after all of us who will tell you to don't - remember "PoS"...

Forget PoW.

Hi Sharrow,

no there is no "testnet3" folder. Is there some way to get it?

Hello everyone,

i want to create my own coin as a private project because i am fascinated about bitcoins and want to understand the technology to bring the people closer to it.

I tried to start it the most simple way with this tutorial: http://dogecoin.ga/how_to_create_scrypt_based_altcoins.html

As i am using Ubuntu i downloaded the bitcoin code from github and compiled it (i first had to install libgmp3-dev and libmpfr-dev aditionally - because i got the error: gmpxx.h missing).

Code:
sudo apt-get install libgmp3-dev
sudo apt-get install libgmpfr-dev

after adding the epochTime and the human readable time i compiled it with:

Code:
make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

This runs without mistakes. After this, one should run

Code:
./newcoind -testnet

to create a Merkle hash in the debug.log file. I get the error message:

Code:
newcoin: main.cpp:3495: bool InitBlockIndex(): Assertion 'block.hashMerkleRoot == uint256("Numer of the old hash in main.cpp")' failed. Aborted (core dumped)

But the file debug.log is missing in the newcoin folder.

I am searching for days now but simply no one seem to be stuck at this point. Someone was saying that the code to create a Merkle hash is removed from the sourcecode but how is the Merkle hash then generated and why is there no debug.log in my folder? I am a little bit confused and frustrated. I need some help please?
