Hello, I would like to ask few questions about creating my own altcoin. I have absolutley no knowledge in software coding, but nonetheless I would like to learn something new. So, if anyone were so kind to answer me, I'd be very  indebted.

Here we go:

1. Does creating and launching your own cryptocurrency requires a specific programming skills or is it possible to do it without it, or with someone's help? (well I know this might sound silly, and I should know the answer, but I had to ask anyway Wink
2. What programming language is required?
3. Is it a complicated process? Let's assume I'd like to change the following things: logo, loading software logotype, name, adresses, amount of coins in circulation, time period between new block and the old one and ammount of coins generated per block?
4. How do I launch my altcoin? Do I compile the source code and the chain is on once the genesis block is generated?
5. Do I need any server for my crypto?
6. What about pools? How do I create them?
7. Blockexplorer? How do I implement it on a website? Does every cryptocurrency has its own blockexplorer avaliable to view on a website?

Thank you very much in advance Wink
