No worries!  Appreciate it, pretty sure I can find some proof.  My old jd account if nothing else.   Anyways, thanks for the quick reply!

So what's the plan on how to transition from being an XCP asset?  Are you using the same list on the darkclam site to make a brand new genesis block, or is there gonna be some kind of exchange?  Asking cause I made a total noob mistake; I threw away the paper that had my 12 word passphrase on it.  I'd completely forgotten about it when I was tidying my desk drawers.  Oops.
Sorry my phone is broken and I cannot check things properly thru the day. You are not the only one, probably you will be able to recover your funds if you have proof of ownership, I promise I'll come with news soon. Ah, shit happens, I've lost a bit myself with similar stuff.
I just seen that it wasn't big difference on the timing, yeah the jd account was my initial thinking too, we shall see.

BTW, do u know how the clam staking formula, or there isn't any?

Since you are asking in the Just-dice thread I assume that you mean the staking formula for Just-Dice as a staking pool.

First to stake your clams at Just-Dice you need to invest your Clams in Just-Dice's bankroll, having your coins on play balance doesn't give stakes (in this case share of stakes), you receive stakes in proportion of the percentage that you provide to the Just-Dice bankroll.

Let's suppose that you have an amount of clams equivalent to 0.0001% of Just-Dice bankroll, every time that Just-Dice stake a block that is 1 clam per block you get 0.0001% of the amount staked. Also you get deducted 10% of your stake share as a Just-Dice fee, as far I know the fee is payed at the moment that you receive the stake (instantaneously ), I mean is not subject to be paid on withdrawal or after the end of commission circle.

Is good to clarified that since Just-Dice provide a feature that permit you to add leverage to your investment or declare offsite coins, the only balance that is counted as investement for staking purposes is the invested onsite you can find that on the stats tab, beside the chat tab.

 Note: I tried to get a proof of this with my balance and a calculator but didn't got the same results maybe I'm missing something or using the calculator wrong (like most of the time) so better wait to someone else with better maths to confirm if it is like i wrote it.


I think that the commission is weekly.

Amount to be repaid: 0.143
Repayment Date: July 17th or earlier
Type of Collateral: My account
Bitcoin Address:  let me know


Will pay 0.143 within 15/07/2016

After I check you trust history,
 I can only lend you if you provide collateral- altcoins with a stable value and traded volume.
regards

What's the max you could do with my account as collateral?
If he doesn't ill give you .05.
Don't lend to him, the account has been hacked.
I would advise everyone to not lend anymore to people that offer a bitcointalk.org account as collateral.
Since there are getting slot of accounts hacked these days...
Oops thanks for that.

What's the optimal multiplier knowing 1% is the edge? 1%? I see the average multiplier is 19.68.

What does "bankroll profit" mean?
I don't see the connection between multiplier and edge, if you use it as it's supposed to be you should declare accordingly to funds you have out of the site, otherwise the answers to most of your possible questions are in thenjust-dice FAQ, it's the tab at the end.

When I do /supply, I get this:
15:03:51 INFO: 182,405 of 3,208,032 sets of 4.60545574 CLAM were dug up so far from the initial distribution
15:03:51 INFO: 840,058 CLAM were dug up and 964,989 CLAM were staked for a total of 1,805,047 CLAM
15:03:51 INFO: Just-Dice's onsite bankroll of 1,405,374 CLAM represents 77.86% of that amount
15:03:51 INFO: if all the distributed CLAMs were dug up, the total money supply would be 15,739,390 CLAM
15:03:51 INFO: the total bankroll of 27,660,158 CLAM is made up of 1,405,374 CLAM onsite and 26,254,784 CLAM offsite
15:03:51 INFO: the average multiplier (total / onsite) is 19.68x

If I'm not wrong, if 77.86% of the total CLAMS in existence are on Just Dice, then the maximum multiplier should be 1/0.7786 if people were using this functionality as "it should" be used (that's assuming 100% of the CLAMS were owned by investors, which obviously is false and therefore the multiplier should be even smaller). So someone is lying there (and making a profitable investment become an unprofitable one by not understand variance).
Not sure if i used the wrong words or you are a troll cunt.

Are CLAMS being used anywhere else than on Just Dice?

What percentage of the total CLAM coins have been "redeemed"?
Use /supply to check that info accurately, yes CLAM is used on a few sites more (not the proper thread to name them), also there is projects that will open in a future.

So why have the number of miners fallen from hundreds of people like Bob in a backroom with a PC to a few huge companies (in China) with farms of machinery?  Because the hashrate has gone up so much.  But why has the hashrate gone up so much? .... Chicken or egg which is first?  To be honest, it does not matter, only that Bitcoin is reliant on a few (almost getting centralised) Chinese farms.  We, the community, have little input, in fact zero.

First of all that's not true, the hash rate has gone up because the amount of miners has gone up, because with each generations PCs/ASICs get better. I don't think the number of miners has decreased, yes the chinese may be a big % of the miners but with this price grow i can say for sure without looking at charts that many have turned their miners back on. You just changing the words so it always looks in your favor.
I dare to say that it's logical that if something becomes productive then many will start aiming for it, thats the only reason because Bob cannot mine with his PC anymore, yet if Bob used to mine with his PC and now is bitching it's just greed since he already has a huge amount of coins.
Quote
So how much money does ordinary Bob in his back room need to "invest" in suitable PCs and electricity to mine bitcoins?

Do you personally know of any miners that have turned their machines back on?  I am not sure how you can be sure otherwise if you have no charts!

Finally, bitcoin mining was productive, that is why so many were into it.  It is only productive for massive farms - that is why they are now existing.

First of all, "gucked" up the quote a bit.
Second, i think its logic that if a bitcoin costs 300 USD and its BARELY profitable then if price doubles it should give you a huge edge assuming no one else turns their miners on.
Third, bitcoin is profitable for anyone depending of their cost of electricity, if you have good hands you can get it even cheaper. Chinese have really cheap electricity thanks to nuclear power for example.
Forth, personaly in the crypto world is something strange but just an example of altcoin price and altcoin miners sweeping from coin to coin.
Edit: ps: i don't see why it should be profitable only for massive farms, its also the fault of the ASIC creators, i think we need more companies that make them, and even more legit.

I cant be bothered with long posts and so gucked the quote.

So can an ordinary person buy the kit and mine bitcoins?  I think not, because the kit needed is too expensive.  That is why these farms have grown as it is the only way anyone can mine.  Whether the BTC is $300 or $600 is irrelevant if you cannot afford to buy into the mining.  I agree with the 4th point, people are not mining BTC but any and all other crypto coins.  It is the only way to make money and hopefully get some payback on the kit they have that cost a fortune!


The only reason for that is because they want a fortune, you can still get into mining with little money with cloud mining in a trusted site as hashnest (i know no one else), now you lose a bit with cloud mining since you cannot do anything against electricity. Yet the price of the miners has nothing to do with btc. I do agree that they are expensive, but if you take care of things properly at long term the roi is almost safe unless btc price goes down.

ASIC chips can never keep up with the logarithmic increase in power required to solve the algorithms.

Do you realise that mining difficulty is a result of increased hashrate and not the other way around? Miners don't have to keep up with the difficulty, the difficulty keeps up with the miners. The only reason the power required increases is because the hashrate increases. When we run up against the physical limit and Moore's Law stops applying there won't be new generations of ASICs, so the hashrate will stop increasing exponentially, and so the difficulty will stop increasing exponentially. You have the whole causality of the situation backwards.
