0 hashes per second in Qt for new altcoin Lately I have become interested in the way crytocurrency works. So I decided to make my own cryptocurrency to learn it's internal workings.
I used a clone of SmallChange and followed this guide.
Everything compiled well, but when I run the program, be it via command line or the qt interface, when I tell it to start mining it just tells me that it is mining but the hashespersecond are 0.
I tried building the litecoin source on my machine and used the exact same configuration that I used in my own altcoin (the same &quot;.conf&quot; file) and when I tell it to mine it does mine.
For my altcoin I used the ports:

55883 for RCP
55884 for P2P

My question is, is my computer not mining my altcoin because I'm alone on the network or it is happening because I have made some mistake in my code?
Thank you in advance :)

i did same thing bro :) i am very happy when you saw your question :) firstly you have to connect another computer . and you have to see "connection=1" To do that, you have use command: ./testcoin -connect= # . and you have to add listen=1 to main pc and addnode for both pcs.However, hashespersec is also zero for me :(
