#!/bin/bash -e # This script is an experiment to clone litecoin into a # brand new coin + blockchain. # The script will perform the following steps: # 1) create first a docker image with ubuntu ready to build and run the new coin daemon # 2) clone GenesisH0 and mine the genesis blocks of main, test and regtest networks in the container (this may take a lot of time) # 3) clone litecoin # 4) replace variables (keys, merkle tree hashes, timestamps..) # 5) build new coin # 6) run 4 docker nodes and connect to each other # # By default the script uses the regtest network, which can mine blocks # instantly.
