For my last bored weekend. I just create a new alt-coin for fun.
I download the latest source code of litecoin and follow these step
1.changed line 2001 in src\main.cpp to
const char* pszTimestamp = "NY Times 20130503, Just another funny weekend coin ";
2.follow the code,get MerkleRoot,nTime,nNonce,and Genesis Block.
fill it in src\main.cpp, MerkleRoot(line 2027), nTime(line 2013,line 2019),nNoce(line 2015,line 2020),Genesis Block(line 32,line 1974)
3. I compiled the project, get litecoind (for command line tool). litecoin-qt ( for GUI).
4.i run litecoin-qt, and , I just find it says the last data is two days before.and have 34966(almost) block to get.
does i connect to litecoin's chain , not my funny chain?
what's the next step should i do for my fun coin?
thanks a lot.
sorry for my poor English.
