Can I really make my own cryptocurrency?

This course does not focus on developing a blockchain from scratch, rather, it focuses on making one ready for production.

This course will help you understand design tradeoffs and common pitfalls of cryptocurrency development. It focuses on designing the coin distribution schedule, customizing the network parameters, and mining your own genesis block. Your actual coin design is up to you, but the instructor is here to help you decide how you want to do it.
