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

[air139]

All clams sent to my wallet never show up, and the mining part is super opaque/non transparent and has not paid out either. Does this mean all the clams I bought on poloniex are vanished in transaction?

Withdrawals from poloniex.com disappear... whelp, that sucked.

[percocet]

Last night I tried asking the girl at the bar if she would show me her CLAM but all I got was a slap in the face

Fantastic idea

Loaded my doge wallet and got 9.2 clam

The clams are now worth 1000 times more than the doge in the wallet

Happy days !!!

Directory.io's keys were used on this coin? As far as i knew, those keys were fake..

How did you get 9.2?
So, is it if you have 2 addresses with some doge in it, you get more coins?

No, if your wallet was very active you get more. I got 7X the normal coins for my DOGE wallet (32) but only the standard 4.6 for my LTC wallet which had 5-10 transactions.

Just add "--salvagewallet" (no quotes, with a space separating what is already there) to the end in the field.

The source code says it's -salvagewallet with a single dash.

It works whether you use one dash or two.

I just imported a dogecoin wallet.

Soon after the -salvagewallet finished, I used 'clamd getbalance' to show my balance - there were some clams in there.

I waited half an hour for more of the blockchain to sync, checked again, and my balance had decreased.

What's that about?

Edit: I guess 'getbalance' defaults to showing confirmed balance, and I had staking enabled, which made some of my clams go unconfirmed?

I like the way this is trading...
No real dumping and decent 10-20 BTC/day volume.

This could get interesting as more people scan their wallets every day.

Indeed, coins involved in, and created by, a coinStake transaction/block do not show up in getbalance until they have reconfirmed.

If you would like to limit this, you can set a "reservebalance" or set staking to false entirely.

Will have to check into the double dash; I would have swore the double dash was required but it wouldn't be the first FUBAR I had made.

wow nice idea!

Got zero balance of CLAM with the BTC wallet.dat. Guess I'm unlucky...lol I do have a balance on my BTC wallet, but the wallet is encrypted.

Doesn't matter as long as it was active and had a balance before May.

[FFrost]

Isn't this all a bit untrustworthy since we have to import our wallet.dat into the wallet and trust that you don't steal our keys. Surely this is another pump and dump?

Transfer your funds to another wallet and never use the wallet you are going to import to CLAM ever again.

Indeed, coins involved in, and created by, a coinStake transaction/block do not show up in getbalance until they have reconfirmed.

Is there some way I can get a list of all the addresses which have unspent coins?

I can use "listunspent" but it doesn't show the ones that have been involved in staking recently, not even if I use "listunspent 0". I'm guessing I need hundreds of confirmations before I can use those coins again - but I'd like to get a list of the addresses with funds so I can export their privkeys and import them into my main wallet.

Will have to check into the double dash; I would have swore the double dash was required but it wouldn't be the first FUBAR I had made.

I've checked. I was surprised the double-dash worked, but it did. And so did the single dash.

Anyone who wants to give me free money will generally get my attention.

I had a (very small) balance on my Doge wallet, and had 25 transactions all during February. My wallet however was stuck on a fork so I tried to resolve it by downloading the latest wallet, and eventually re-downloading the whole chain. The wallet has just updated though I've tried everything I could think of to get it working, and am at a loss unless I needed transactions past February as well. I changed the previous .dat over to the new doge wallet, updated it, copy/paste to the clam wallet, and still no clams to be found...

[dooglus]

Sorry, but I am not handing over my private keys. This looks like a risky precedent. You should have thought of some way for the owners to prove they had the required wallet private key by generating a public key, or sequence of public keys, or sending dust or similar. Any protocol that requires the private keys is suspect.

You don't need to hand over your private keys, any more than you hand over your private keys when you run bitcoin-qt.

Your private keys are used to sign transactions, the same way as they are in Bitcoin.

The difference here is that all private keys which had non-dust balances on some date in May this year were sent 4 clams.

[dooglus]

Also, I forgot to mention.

Although the -salvagewallet flag did work, and did end up giving me some clams, while it was running the debug.log was spewing out lots and lots of messages like this:

So I'm guessing the reason why I didn't get any clams is that my wallet was forked, and therefor could not be verified, or sent clams regardless of me being eligible for them.

[kbroadfoot]

Well, I got 1 order of clams with an old wallet, neat stuff

Here's a short article I wrote about CLAMS, my new favorite cryptocurrency. Read it then prepare for all the copycats by spreading dust to 100's of bitcoin accounts
