If you don't have an idea on which algo is the best, you shouldn't even fork a coin on your own.

What's the reason why you want to fork a coin?

Right, as a team or developer of a coin, he should have enough idea about blockchain, and how does it work, how to create a new coin, develop that coin. In a nutshell he should have knowledge about creation a coin or fork a coin. If he is weak in such field, he should hire an experienced developer.

see im asking community opinions, i do know how to create a new coin, develop the coin and develop an exchange for the coin.
Did you mean about the consensus mechanism that used in the cryptocurrency? I meant about POS, POW, DPOS, or etc.
Algo doesn't matter a lot in the creation of blockchain and you can use various algo for that but about privacy, scalability and another thing will depend on your mechanism.

Why do you need to create another fork? There are already too many of them. Think of a new algorithm. An algorithm that will be resistant to cracking with the help of quantum computers. Moreover, the need for such an algorithm is long overdue.

Algorithm is not the best way to determine whether the coin is really good or not, but if you ask for the fork, i wonder why you fork a coin that was the best algorithm.

the whole point of creating a new coin is that you create a new coin. if you want to fork some coin without even knowing which algorithm suits your innovative idea (that you should have before you even think about creating a new coin) then you should not even waste your time creating it.

yes creating a new coin but you does not answer my question, thanks btw.

am asking the community, there pros and cons of any algo for example speed, privacy, asic.

reason?

What I don't understand with his question, why he has to fork a coin? is it monetary reasons or innovation reasons?

This kind of scheme is becoming popular when the biggest forks became of a trend and gathered huge market cap. And after few days, he don't even replied to this thread although he was online today. No reason for him, I guess.

hello all,
i want to fork a new coin. which algo in your opinion is the best to fork? give me your reason.
thanks
For you to ask this kind of question just mean that you don't have a direction as to why you want to create the fork which means that no matter the algorithm you make use of, the coin will always turn out to be a shitcoin because the team in charge of the project never had a solid reason as to why the coin was created, we have a lot of coin with the same algorithm and I don't think we want of of them, all we need is a very good idea.

It seems to me that such questions come only from fraudsters who did not dare to do what they should do today. Well guys give an idea. Where would you pour the loot.  Well, it's just arrogance.

First question is what do you want and plan to achieve. If you answer all these correctly then your search  can be narrowed to the best suitable algorithm for your coin. But then, why fork or create a coin that has or won't have any economic and development importance to the cryptocurency market.

You have a very strange position. I agree with the previous comments. You should not do this if you don't understand this.

For me, the best algo for cryptocurrency is Cryptonight. You can mining the coin with cryptonight algo with CPU and GPU.
This means it is supporting the decentralized of the coin, doesn't like other algo which you use ASIC to mining with profit.
I think decentralized means everyone can mine the coin.

I think you should first consider what algos the newer coins are using. In particular take a look at the more modern algos like x16r, x16s and other ASIC resistant algorithms out there. And you should understand the need for a new coin to be ASIC resistant and how to achieve this. Presently it might not be even enough to be ASIC resistant, your coin would have to be a FPGA resistant too. You can also take a look at the Veil Coin and how they achieve FPGA resistance. Choosing an algo is not a trivial matter. If you don't choose it well your new coin can suffer 51% attacks easily and it will become worthless in no time.

Assuming your a new account and just 2 post
I will implore you to learn first and understand what blockchain and crypto currency is all about

Read about bitcoin forks, etherum forks and bitcoin cash forks too

it is impossible to answer such a vague question because the answer is so broad and it can be literary anything from the bitcoin's PoW to some of these newly found algorithms that you have not even heard the name of.

your question at this point is like asking what graphic card is the best! which for instance depends on your budget, what you plan on doing with it,...

For easiness of forking and maintaining a coin, Scrypt would be the best one. It's one of the most forked coin with a large number of documentation on the process and troubleshooting any problems. If you want to run a mineable blockchain, Scrypt is easier choice.
