Have you looked at the bit of code that is on github?  Check www.github.com/daxxog/darkclam .
Doesn't look like working code and a lot of work to be done.
i agree and i know, trust me ive been waiting for this for so long. Im currently searching for more devs for both site and coin.

how the fuk u mine this?>?
You dont mine it you stake it since its a POS coin.
To learn more about proof of stake check OP or FAQ of just-dice.com
This guy is making mobile staking wallets : 
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1065204.0
The cost is two BTC so i tought maybe the community would do a crowdfunding.
This address is owned by SebastianJu that will act as escrow for the funds to be raised
18Me4dCRBPvHQnuqsQPFWzcGTnJsUHpa1E
Also he left this jd uid for clams 1418619.

Edit: Seems that price is reduced to 1 btc, i kinda missed it, total crowdfund should be of 1.025 btc so we can cover little for seba too.
^


Ok, I am tired of Clam not having a mobile wallet so here goes. I have 500 CLAM for anyone that develops a working Android wallet with basic wallet functionality in a 'Clam design' (as per the desktop wallet). I am primarily looking for bids from Developers wanting to take on the project. Must have references from previous mobile wallet creation.

Seems it's equally or more profitable to just invest with just-dice over time though. Since you get paid for stake, and site profit (if I am correct) with a 10% stake fee. Am I right?

Whether it's more profitable to invest with just-dice depends on:

1) how lucky just-dice is - it's possible that the site gets unlucky and loses a lot of CLAMs to a winning player
2) how much you use the "offsite investment" feature at just-dice - it's a way of amplifying your potential gains and losses from players
3) how much betting volume there is on just-dice

I've not done the math to figure out where the optimal balance lies, but all the information you would need to do so is available on the site's stats tab.

One more question about the clams stake:
- the size of an output is linked with the network difficulty?
I mean if the difficulty rise if the size of an output is bigger it has more chances to find a block or not?

Thank you again

Yes, the chance of an output staking per unit time is directly proportional to its size in CLAMs, and inversely proportional to the network difficulty.

If the difficulty doubles and so does the size of your output, the two doublings cancel each other out and you end up with the same chance of staking that you started with.

How does the offsite feature affect the earnings? Isn't that just moving the coin to all-stake?
Offsite doesnt affect staking, it declares that you have up to 25x your funds outside the site that you willing to risk as bankrolling, so youll earn/lose 25 times your bankroll.

Ok, how does this work? Distribution to wagers? Someone have a TLDR on how to claim?
Well we done claiming and voting,  the vote ended up in to stoping the distribution.
Right now we are on the XCP exchange yet the volume is really small, after the developement starts again the project will get faster since we will have the support of other devs.
A decent bunch of the progress can be tracked thru github.com/daxxog/darkclam or just daxxog.

What wallet do you use for clam?  Can you have a bit coin and calm wallet on the same phone? I want to buy some clam to use on just dice
https://github.com/nochowderforyou/clams/releases/tag/v1.4.17 , you have no clam wallet for your phone, i made a crowdfunding about this but people never bothered.

How much is needed to build an Android wallet for clam? I would be willing to fund a significant part.
Hey, the cost was 1.00 btc and sebastianju would get a tip of .05, if things go well ill also apport some, i think that in this very moment there is no donation yet but with a bit of promotion it should fly.
1628  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][CLAM] CLAMs, Proof-Of-Chain, Proof-Of-Working-Stake, a.k.a. "Clamcoin" on: April 19, 2016, 02:48:47 PM
in this "Proof-Of-Working-Stake" the age and the weight (quantity of the output) are taken into consideration?

No.

Most PoS coins define the weight as "age * size", so the weight increases over time, meaning you can leave your wallet shut down and let the weight build up, then run it once per week to claim your rewards. But what are you being rewarded for? You aren't helping the network much by only running the wallet once per week.

CLAM defines the weight is just "size" (in CLAMs). So you don't build up weight by leaving your wallet closed. You are only rewarded while actually helping the network by trying to stake. This is the meaning of the word "working" in "proof of working stake". You only get rewarded for the time you spend working on securing the network by staking.

One output of 100 clams with 5 days age and another output of 10 clams with 3 days age, while they staking they have the same chance to find a block or not?

Yes, exactly the same.


Seems it's equally or more profitable to just invest with just-dice over time though. Since you get paid for stake, and site profit (if I am correct) with a 10% stake fee. Am I right?
10% fee, on staking and 10% on bankrolling independently of eachother. Take count that if you lose bankrolling you would still pay the staking 10% (You only get commission on profits.)

Hey all, im bumping the thread with the occassion of the funny fact i saw.
When we launched the distribution on counterparty there was a total of 211 holders, well after the few dumps seems that now there is 214 holders, i cannot wait to launch properly.
I know its true that the delay is being big, but first of all daxxog has very little time to develop and is much stuff to do, also, i promise the wait will be worth Smiley.

Hi.

Is there any way of using chat to automatically withdraw from JD?

Invest all and divest all works, but withdraw shows an window and i must manually enter address and amount.

Thank you.
I dont think there is such feature, but maybe doog implements it, i like the tab personally tough.
1636  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][LISK] Lisk | ICO | Decentralized Application & Sidechain Platform on: April 12, 2016, 08:52:32 PM
is there a link where I can read which method will be used to distribute LISK?

I think what you are looking for is in this text from my previous posts:

LISK HOLDS THE FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES OVER ETHERIUM:

Javascript language simplicity vs Solidity language complexity
Like I said ... easy to write a Javascript compiler to Ethereum bytecode  
Let me know when it's done...or even started.  Even if an Ethereum JavaScript compiler  existed, Solidity is still an unstable language - why paste a compiler on top of it?

100,000+ JavaScript programmers vs. few Solidity programmers
The above argument eliminates this so called advantage of lisk
The above argument is vaporware.  JavaScript programmers can start coding Lisk dapps right now.

Single hash generated  vs. trillions of valid but discarded hashes generated to secure blockchain in one blocktime
Makes no sense at all
I've explained this several times.  Churning out trillions of wasted hashes means lots of wasted electricity - like literally a nuclear powerplant's worth for Bitcoin - and is an ever-growing financial overhead that will ultimately kill the coin.

Cooperative, efficient blockchain generation vs. competitive, wasteful blockchain generation
looks like the same as above
No, it's the key reason Lisk can run on a $9 CHIP computer and Ethereum can't.  Economies of scale hugely favor Lisk over BTC/ETH.

Stable roundtable clockwork forging vs. unsustainable, exponentially growing free-for-all mining
Forging is no different than mining ... just different ways to make the currency
It is so sad to see people that don't understand enough math to get why exponential growth is unsustainable, or why a stable system is different and better from an unstable one.

Dapps on individual sidechains vs. dapps on bloated mainchain
Ethereum dapps are also sidechains .. lol .. you seem to be uninformed
The Ethereum Guide says its dapps are deployed on the mainchain ( https://gavofyork.gitbooks.io/turboethereum/content/dapps_deployment.html ).  Practically, in Ethereum dapps are just specialized "contracts".  There's my showdown cards in this poker hand - what's your counter-reference to prove what you are saying about Ethereum sidechains?  Prove to me that each dapp in Ethereum has its own separate blockchain as they do in Lisk.

Min of 2-4 to max of 101 cheap $35 Pi2 / $9 CHIP microcomputers needed for each sidechain backbone vs. large, unlimited numbers of expensive GPU systems needed for mainchain backbone
The GPU rings will not be used once POS for eth sets in
So...PoS for ETH is vaporware, got it.  How can you know that Eth PoS will run on microcomputers like Lisk does if ETH PoS finally shows up?  What happens to all those sad little GPU miners whose income stream will be cut off?

Sidechain dapps permanently free vs. mainchain perpetual "gas" payments required
Ah ... What can possibly be the use of the beloved LISK then ...
What part of "free" vs. "paying for ETH gas" is so hard to understand?  Free is better.  Lisk is still the exchange coin of choice within the dapp itself.

Difference between Lisk Forging and Ethereum Mining

Lisk has 101 "Active Delegates" who consolidate all transactions that have occurred in the last 10 seconds and generate a has to secure a block adding that data to the Lisk blockchain.  These 101 individuals do not compete with each other, but instead cooperate and take turns.   With Lisk, generating a new block for the blockchain is called "forging" (in the "blacksmith" instead of the "counterfeiter" sense of that term), not mining.  Mining is a Bitcoin / Etherium term that refers to competitive generation of thousands of millions of billions of useless hashes looking for a string of leading zeros in the hash that is a "lucky ticket" declaring a particular miner to be the winner of a reward.  Forging is a cooperative  generation of one and only one necessary hash to secure the Lisk blockchain, for which you are paid a set fee when it's your turn to do it.  During the first year an individual Lisk forger makes 5 Lisk per block forged, which happens like clockwork about once every 17 minutes, for a total of 150K Lisk in the first year.

In a pure PoS system, the richest coin holders that set up a forging node get most of the rewards from running those nodes.  With DPoS, anybody can set up a forging node no matter how much or how little of the coin they hold, as long as they pay (for Lisk) a 100 coin start fee.   Under DPoS, a poor coin holder / node runner gets the same rewards as a rich coin holder / node runner.  Thus there is incentive for poor coin holders to run a good node to increase their coin holdings.  Since there's a lot more poor coin holders than rich ones, the pool of potential node runners is much bigger.  This is a Good Thing.

Lisk generating only one hash per blocktime is one of its huge advantages over Bitcoin and Ethereum and their huge waste of resources.  

Lisk is literally trillions of times more efficient in CPU cycles per block generated compared to Bitcoin or Ethereum.  This is why Lisk can use really cheap computers, while Bitcoin and Ethereum are trapped forever to use a hugely expensive, wasteful and unneeded overhead infrastructure - all those warehouses full of mining rigs, whether ASIC or GPU based.

Now THAT'S stupid - and most Bitcoin and Ethereum people have no idea just how stupid it is.  

Lisk Coin Inflation Is Much Lower Than Ethereum Coin Inflation



Lisk DPoSWFR (Delegated Proof of Stake With Forging Rewards) Vs. Ethereum PoW (Proof of Work)

PoW is an incredibly inefficient and wasteful way of obtaining security for a blockchain, and requires trillions upon trillions of wasted hashes per blocktime.  The key point is DPoS Lisk obtains blockchain security levels equal to that of PoW Bitcoin or Ethereium with ONLY ONE hash per 10 second blocktime, NOT trillions of hashes like BTC or ETH.

That's why Lisk is being valued so highly.


LISK represents BOTH a revolutionary way to secure a blockchain AS WELL AS a revolutionary easy way to create sidechains and dapps.

Lisk is superior to Ethereum on both counts.  Period.

I know you know all these points by heart, and you're good at delivering them. But DPOS is not the panacea you think it is. If it were, every currency would move to it.
1. Regarding resilience, how do you guard against a DDOS attack on the 101 delegates?
2. Regarding decentralization, how do you prevent a Sybil attack of delegates?
3. Regarding incentives, long term, how do keep your voters interested in nominating the delegates?


Ans. 1. You can't 2. You can't 3. You won't



1. Regarding resilience, I can guard against a DDoS attack by letting a big-ass firewall system pass data only from the other 100 IP addresses I know are from my fellow delegates.  I don't have to respond to every packet thrown my way and so fall behind with my blocktime tasks.  A DDoS doesn't have to overwhelm 101 delegates; it has to overwhelm 101 big-ass firewall systems protecting those delegates.  That's a much tougher problem.

2. Regarding decentralization, I can examine each of the 101 delegates that are initially selected and make sure they are 101 individual people, then apply the same scrutiny to the trickle of replacements as they come along.  Hey, I personally am doing that right now - take a look:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mWcV-xWRpetdmqZ0SaI9oizulee8ZDnF-q4B4_zCCn8/edit#gid=0

3. Regarding incentives, I've got a 1000 BTC whale, two 720 BTC devs and a 300 BTC dolphin that will protect their investment by making  sure that good Standby Delegates are promoted as required.  

So...

Ans. 1. We can 2. We are 3. We will
