I know there have been thousands of knock offs of Bitcoin but I want to make my own coin. I have some ideas which will hopefully make it a distinct coin and a legit coin which will actually be worth something. Unfortunately, I don't have the skills as far as programming and other things to make it and I was wondering if anyone was willing to help
No problem, you can create your own coin within minutes, PoW or PoS, on top of the Nxt blockchain.
They invented a neat feature called monetary system:
