[ANN][CLAM] CLAMs, Proof-Of-Chain, Proof-Of-Working-Stake, a.k.a. "Clamcoin"

[SuperClam]

I want to try this out but can you tell me what ratio i will get clams for dogecoin? Like i have 10k dogecoins in my wallet, how many clams i ll get for that amount of dogecoins? 

Sure!
CLAMS were distributed ~4.6 per address with a balance.  So if you had received coins in multiple piles, then you would get multiple "shares", so to speak.  The actual balance in the Dogecoin wallet doesn't matter. 
This was to prevent folks like the U.S. government, who last I checked had seized over 150,000 BTC, from getting all the CLAMS

LOL.. So you mean its same if i swap wallet.dat with just 1 dogecoin balance also i ll get 4.6 CLAMS?

To a point.
Super low balances were stripped from the send entirely.
In addition, larger balances will normally be made up of more "piles" or outputs, unless they are all a single incoming transaction.
Thus they would receive more "shares" on average.

Might also be worth mentioning:

You said your wallet had 10,000 DOGE in it.
There are likely people with a whole lot more than $5 USD worth of Dogecoin out there.
There are certainly a lot of people with more than $5 USD worth of LTC/BTC out there.

You likely got the good end of the distribution

Most of my coins are locked in cold wallet  Just to try out your technology which i find a bit interesting and different than other crypto im preparing my doge wallet with low balance just in case anything goes wrong, you know what i mean Crypto is not a thing to trust only with beautiful words, if CALMS become really worth and valuable some day i will buy 100 BTC worth of CLAMS, mark my words

We get it, we really do
And, thanks for the vote of confidence in the idea.

All we would ask is that after things go well for you, take the time to come back and let others know the coast is clear.
We've taken every step we know how to be open and honest.

User reports mean a world of difference at this point

aha sure, you ll get a feedback you deserve, no worries

great innovation i am ready to join it but please tell me that if i have a new btc address never receive or send transaction from it can i still claim some clams.

Sorry!

That would have allowed people to literally generate a million empty addresses and then get millions of CLAMS.

If an address did not have a balance about two weeks ago when the dumps were completed, then unfortunately there won't be any CLAMS.

ok thanks for information.i will buy it on exchange.Thanks dev for your fast reply

About the "malware" I have not found anything.
If anyone is worried about their private keys, you can do a wallet password on top of your private keys, and still claim your clams.

I was able to get some using multibit but when I tried with a qt .dat it didnt work, not sure what I did. I might suggest a new wallet for every clam claim.

A helpful report, from a trusted Senior Member.

Thank You.

I am sure you have likely tried these simple steps, but for posterity and anyone else who might find this:

- Make sure you ran the CLAM Client with --salvagewallet ("--" the two dashes are important).
- If it still doesn't work, try the Sipa Console command "dumpwallet" in the BTC wallet (only available in the BTC core Client),
   Then, "importwallet" in CLAMS.

How can  I get more Clams except mining.

[pr9me]

You have to be a complete moron to use this with a wallet that has any significant amount of BTC in it. Just stating the obvious...

True.  Complete Morons probably should not redeem their CLAMS.

For everyone else, who has half a wit and the internets, it is quite simple and reasonable to do a code difference check between BlackCoin and CLAMS.

Looking at your past posts, you seem to be a rather intelligent person.

Please continue that trend, and spend the less than five minutes it would take to view the one dozen lines of code changed before you Scarlet letter someone else's work.

We aren't talking a bunch of complicated functions, methods and non-sense.

We're talking what amounts to a couple copy paste Constants and a switch statement.

Five minutes and two Google searches later, even a moderate computer user should be able to feel comfortable with the code as it stands.

Please do us that respect.
If you find anything nefarious; One line of code.
We will delete this thread entirely.

Yours Truly,
Super Clam.

Is it a CLAM?
Is it a Death Star?

Is there a difference?
Coincidence?
I THINK NOT!

I will leave you to draw your own conclusions...

Clams claimed without any problem.

Clams claimed without any problem.

Glad you chose to turn on and tune in!

Doc Leary would be proud


Seriously though, user reports such as yours are priceless.
If you like the idea, drop by Poloniex, Bittrex, MintPal, Cryptsy or any other exchange and let them know how you feel

Cheers!

how much is the total coins

[zuo1988]

great innovation i am ready to join it but please tell me that if i have a new btc address never receive or send transaction from it can i still claim some clams.

If the launch, I will participate in.Keep up the good work.

[SuperClam]

how much is the total coins

A great question.
A tough answer.

Right now, there are likely less than a thousand or a few thousand CLAMS.
Why?

CLAMS are created when new users import their wallets and claim their clams.

In Poof-Of-Work ("Poof" intentional) crypto currencies:
Hash == Coins.

CLAMS is Proof-Of-Chain. In Proof-Of-Chain:
Users ~= Coins.

Absolute max total possible coins, if every single user of Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Dogecoin imported their wallets; making CLAMS the largest crypto currency in the world, would be ~15 Million.

We hope this makes CLAMS sufficiently "rare" throughout it's life-cycle.

CLAMS has already launched.
You can claim your CLAMS by following the directions in the first post.

Enjoy!

I replace my LTC wallet.dat to clam .
and open clam wallet with argument..
So...Do I keep my clam wallet open and than I will get the clam?

Sure, a little explanation is probably in order.

Once your client sync's the block chain past block 10,000, you will know if that wallet has any CLAMS.
Keeping the client open for longer than that, won't give you any more chance to find CLAMS in the wallet.

From a technical perspective:
The CLAMS are already on the chain and controlled by your privateKeys.

I think this is an interesting idea and would like to try it out. I'm having trouble getting it to work under Debian/Tails. I got the source code, but ran into trouble trying to compile it. I don't want to spend a lot of time on it, so I'll just check again in a few weeks and see if it works then.

I don't think there is anything nefarious about the idea though. On the contrary, it's probably the most fair distribution of a proof-of-stake coin to date.

What's happening with the pool?
