How to Build Terracoin on Ubuntu Linux

Yet another SHA256 crypto-currency based on Bitcoin. Terracoins are issued to enduser nodes that verify transactions through computing power; it is established that there will be a limited and scheduled release of no more than 42 million coins.

To build Terracoin on Ubuntu is very simple as long as you are using the correct version of the operating system.

How to Build OpenSource Coin on Ububtu Linux

Yet another SHA256 crypto-currency based on Bitcoin. According to the developers OpenSource Coin (OCoin) is is a SHA 256 POW/POS cryptocurrency with 1 minute block times, transaction messages and starting diff of 1, and a total of 21 million coins to be minted proof of work and unlimited proof of stake.

How to Build Zetacoin

Zetacoin is another SHA-256 crypto-currency based on Bitcoin. It's only been around since August 2013 and it's mining difficulty (as of Nov 2013) is not yet as insanely high as Bitcoin. Zetacoins have some value in the market, but I think I'll hold on to mine for the time being. I wanted to get a Zetacoin node running alongside my Bitcoin and Litecoin nodes. After a few failures I determine it's currently not possible (at least with what I know) to build Zetacoin on FreeBSD.
