InnoDB codebase which is also a part of MySQL looks like a something you can fork as it is very simple and easy to use also matches some of the requirements of yours. Honestly speaking it is very hard to find a codebase that matches all your prerequisites. So, it is better if you contrast and compare and then take a decision.

So trimming down my few requisites are:
-no PoW
-support for fast transactions
-support for a lot of transactions per second 1000+
The point is having 100% of the coins premined and just distributed among some bots that will always trade them between each other for determined reasons.
I was thinking that for new block generation I have two options:
- each new block gives 100% of the new coins to one predetermined address and if it’s a PoS coin its splits the transaction fee between coin holders
- Each block doesn’t create any new coin but it contains only transaction fee
- the transaction fee will be a fixed a 10% on each transaction and not linked to the weight of the transaction data.

Just as a reference, the coin that meets your requirements is NEO. NEO is open-source and basis PoS protocol:
Because NEO doesn't run on PoW and has a more streamlined PoS protocol, NEO can process transactions far more quickly than Ethereum.
If you are an expert in multi-language programming, you can try to fork NEO using their codebase and modify it as you want.
I'm willing to wait for the result of your fork Grin

I think you should first ask yourself in which programming language do you feel yourself to be most proficient. If you don't know any then it will just be a waste of time to fork anything. Are you good with C++ or Java for example?

Codebase fork is very good for investor. which you are more comfortable you can use that. i have no idea about this. I want know more about codbase fork.

Interesting idea. Perhaps look at a chain that has already forked successfully into other coins?

I think it’s complicated to answer your question as a newbie but I am suggest you to be helped by a expert. And I wish you will get original codebase you want.

You have more studies because you have to be very careful about your investment. Then you can make profits. And the codbase fork are very good decisions, but you have to decide what kind of codebase you want to fork. i want to more about codebase fork.

Hi everybody! I want to fork a codebase of an existing blockchain and start a new chain and a new coin, but I don't know which codebase to choose. I started with the idea of forking XVG code, because I like private and public transactions but then since I want a PoS or a consensus or anyway not a PoW coin, and I’d prefer not to create a token (but is still an option), I don’t want to fork XVG codebase anymore and I’m now looking for some other codebase to fork.
So trimming down my few requisites are:
-no PoW
-support for fast transactions
-support for a lot of transactions per second 1000+
The point is having 100% of the coins premined and just distributed among some bots that will always trade them between each other for determined reasons.
I was thinking that for new block generation I have two options:
- each new block gives 100% of the new coins to one predetermined address and if it’s a PoS coin its splits the transaction fee between coin holders
- Each block doesn’t create any new coin but it contains only transaction fee
- the transaction fee will be a fixed a 10% on each transaction and not linked to the weight of the transaction data.
Ofc i need to modify the blockchain to make it work exactly as i want, but i want to start from something that doesn’t require me too much work
Any suggestion on which one should I use?
Thanks for your help!
