Awesome! I want to develop my own E-Coin!

Sure! You will need Golang and NPM

Automated

If you are on Windows, just launch ./start.bat

Manually

Build your Blockchain

First you need to download Multichain, then follow these steps by replacing e-coin with the name of your currency:

multichain-util create e-coin

[...]
You can edit it in /home/t.wellick/.multichain/e-coin/params.dat before running multichaind for the first time.
[...]

You can adjust the parameters in params.dat file, you can take inspiration from those

Next, it's time to run your blockchain node

multichaind e-coin

MultiChain 2.0 alpha 2 Daemon (latest protocol 20002)

Other nodes can connect to this node using:
multichaind e-coin@42.42.42.42:6667

This host has multiple IP addresses, so from some networks:
multichaind e-coin@42.42.42.42:6667

Listening for API requests on port 6666 (local only - see rpcallowip setting)

Node ready.

You can now fill you .env file with the RPC credentials in /home/t.wellick/.multichain/e-coin/multichain.conf file
