i recently created a token in ropsten test network and was successful. Now i am going to create a real time token in one of my private network.
My question is, can i go ahead creating the same in private network itself or should i create only in main network?
Because in future i want to issue the tokens as loyalty points to my users which they can exchange for real ethers and monetize. Can i achieve this in private network itself? I am not sure of the differences
Your private network is, well, private. It is only accessible to the nodes which are connected to it and you probably don't have many nodes connected. It wouldn't probably be accessible for exchanges and token holders.
If you want "real" usage for the tokens then you either need a big & stable private network or just use the Eth mainnet. Also it's probably a lot easier (but still not easy) to get your tokens listed on exchanges if they are on the mainnet.
