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

[Franciem]

are Giveaway from clam still run ?
proof of chain ?

Yes, distribution CLAM still exist on chain.

Every address/privKey on the BTC, LTC and DOGE chains with a balance above dust on May 12th of last year received free CLAM in the initial distribution.

Thank's for your reply

I removed the links in the OP post to previous "STABLE" versions due to the improvements in connectivity and specific bug fixes in more recent versions. 

The last line of the OP links to my bootstrap.dat, but doesn't mention the partial bootstrap files.

Maybe it's better to link to my bootstrap post which I keep updated, which links to the partials, and which gives the checksum of the bootstrap file too, so people can check that it downloaded correctly.

Must say I'm not a happy camper.

CLAM's would be considered as high price crypto currency  and so I don't have that much of it.

And when second stacked CLAM in a row is mined but not accepted one needs to think developers have not they eye on a ball.

It sounds like you are getting your blocks orphaned.

To reduce orphans:
- Ensure that your system clock is sync'd and that you are connected to peers (the more the better). Ensure you aren't getting timestamp errors in your logs.
- Latency is important; anything you can do to reduce latency might help.
- Given that latency is important, a smaller number of larger outputs may result in quicker stakes and thus more quickly broadcast stakes.

Just a few things to try.

CLAMS is a cryptocurrency with unique distribution model – they sent 3.1 million CLAMs to random BTC/LTC/DOGE wallets that had any amount before May 2014.

That first sentence contains around 7 errors:

* I don't think the method is unique. I think it has been copied (unsuccessfully) since.

* Who is "they"? You use the pronoun without first introducing anyone.

* CLAMs were sent to each address, not each wallet.

* 4.6 CLAMs were sent to each address, not 1.

* 3.2 million addresses received CLAMs, not 3.1.

* The distribution wasn't random. All BTC, DOGE, LTC addresses with more than a tiny balance received the 4.6 CLAM distribution.

* It wasn't before May 2014 that the snapshot was taken. It was the 12th of May 2014.

The rest of the article isn't much better. It could really use a spellcheck.

It's interesting to see that you linked to the clamchecker site with its excessive fees for digging and didn't mention that just-dice.com offers the same service for free. I guess that's the power of affiliate links - maybe BayAreaCoins is onto something after all if bloggers like yourself are willing to fuck over their audience in exchange for a tiny referral fee.

Ouch that was harsh  . But I agree with Dooglus, even if JD does not have a referral system, I'm happy to list it as a good investment on my website because it's one of the most trusted service around, it would be a shame to not put it first, then maybe after clamchecker.
I will definitely write a digging tutorial on my website, good idea, and hopefully accurate  .

Can anybody please point me to a list of casinos that accept CLAM type bankroll-investments.

I would like to invest some of my personal CLAM's in them, thank you!

Computer time sync I already did like week ago. Had started to get orphans on other coin but this helped a lot.

But this latency thing... I don't understand it please explain. What it is and what can I do?

I only know of two (as does http://dicesites.com/ )

  Just-Dice.com (10% commission, 11880k wagered, 764k bankroll)
  bitdice.me (20% commission, 292k wagered, 10k bankroll)

There's also bustaclam.com and fortunejack.com which take CLAM, but I didn't hear about them taking bankroll-investments.

Apologies if I missed anyone.

I just bought a bunch of Clams on Poloniex and I was wondering since there was a new release yesterday are my coins on the exchange safe? Do I need to do anything or is my Clams on the exchange automatically updated to the new version?

Your coins on the exchange should be fine.  I don't think the new update invalidated the old client, it's just better.  Welcome to clam!!!!

I was right about you adding a /dig feature to your site in regards to people blowing all their free coins and the site operating above expected too.

The only people I see getting fucked are the people paying for overpriced CLAMs.  Everyone who uses my site is winner... we don't require losers to be winners.

The website offers people options... We aren't fucking or tricking anyone.

www.ClamChecker is currently the easiest free way for people to check to see if they have CLAMs.

The other options require:

A:  SolveMedia cache (Yuck!!!)  MakeJar website

B:  Confusing chat command with a HUGE FAQ's to read and a lot of other confusing little things that take years to pick up on (Just-dice) + mods who will shadow ban you if you make a mistake typing /dig in a large very used public chat

C:  Downloading and syncing a very large altcoin wallet

Our site you simple come in, stick your address in and check.  No stress, no cache solves and no shadow bans.

I'd understand being butthurt at me if I made my website seem as if it was the only way to claim... that isn't the case though.

Offering 0.005 BTC (less than the price of 1 CLAM) for an entire dig address (4.6 CLAMS) is fucking people over no matter how you try and spin it.

No it absolutely is not.

I can offer anything I want for whatever I want... hell I can offer the Lambo dealership $100.  I'm not fucking the dealership.

If people don't like that option then they can choose from our other two or go explore other options such as Just-Dice.

People are offering much less per CLAM on literally every major exchange if you take a look at the bid... they aren't bad people for having a bid on the books.

If everyone had a private offer for fresh CLAMs I would venture to say that Clamcoin would be better off... so... what is your offer sir?

We've been asked nicely by SuperClam not to argue about Bay's "service" here. I know it's hard to resist responding, but doing so doesn't seem to ever achieve anything anyway, so I think it's best if we leave the topic alone. People have already decided for themselves whether an 81% fee is too much or not. I don't think we are going to change anyone's mind at this point.

Your rude fucking comments at bloggers who are trying to spread CLAM around isn't much appreciated and I'm not looking to change y'alls minds at this point either.

Regarding the controversial comments, this was SuperClam's request from last week.

Issues concerning Just-Dice, JD rain bots, JD trivia bots, etc. should be taken to the Just-Dice thread.
Issues concerning ClamChecker should be taken to the ClamChecker thread.

Also, a bit of respect in the thread here, please.

Thanks!

I think if one party makes a negative comment about the other party, a good way for the other party to respond while satisfying this request is to post a reply saying something like "my response to this is in X thread" along with a link to the post with the response. This might move the argument out of this thread and also point people to the other relevant threads.
