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

[dooglus]

Have a nice day bigfoots. I expect someone to raise this to 0.003, it would be very funny. Anyway, it's not gonna happen, want facts? Here you have one: 0.0025 WAS THE TOP, IT WILL NEVER TOUCH NOR SURPASS IT AGAIN.

I'll just leave this here:

How long before my free clams from a wallet import are visible in my wallet?

Am I supposed to import before the client syncs to 100%? Am I supposed to resync?  Did I do this backwards?

It doesn't matter whether you sync or import first.

You need to be synced up to at least block 10,000 to see your free CLAMs.

And if you import the old privkeys *after* you sync the chain, you need to -rescan before you will see the coins - but I think the import command does that for you.

Is it possible that http://clam.makejar.com/ was wrong and I didn't have clams to claim? Rescan didnt work.

**EDIT**

I just moved the blockchain and started a new download.  That worked.

CLAMS FOR ME!

Try using Just-Dice's "chat" tab. Type /dig and the BTC/LTC/DOGE address. It will tell you whether the address received any CLAMs and whether they have already been claimed.

For example, I type:

  /dig 1P2MktBR3dYoM71jJapSfLBqimAHMADY4K

and it tells me:

  15:10:20 INFO: BTC address [1P2MktBR] was not funded on 12th May 2014; [xWKzem1t] is the corresponding CLAM address; see [history:1P2MktBR] for a history of its balance

where the [...] texts are links. Or I type:

  /dig 14o7zMMUJkG6De24r3JkJ6USgChq7iWF86

and it tells me:

  15:11:50 INFO: CLAM address [xC6ktEBw] corresponding to BTC address [14o7zMMU] was funded with 4.60545574 CLAM when the initial distribution was made; the CLAMs were already dug up, sorry

or, for an address I know is still funded but don't own:

  /dig 1CrPRwBkwZdEejXusCbh8o35YMN7g7ffKf

and it says:

  15:12:49 INFO: CLAM address [xLA2Kp2E] corresponding to BTC address [1CrPRwBk] was funded with 4.60545574 CLAM when the initial distribution was made; the CLAMs have not been spent and are waiting for you to collect them; [further instructions]

Thank you so much for that post.  I will use that to double check.  I seem to have done *Something* wrong because I just started redownloading the blockchain and the transactions came in.

Thanks for your help!

Your move, Mr. Vulture:



Is it funny yet?

Not that I don't greatly enjoy your mocking of VultureFund, dooglas, but if his trading comments are off topic, aren't your comments about his trading comments off topic too?

CLAM is really taking off it seems. With this pace it will soon be back at the 500k+ range
But as you say'd "Your move, Mr. Vulture". Will be interesting to see what happens but my money is on nothing.

It's pretty clear "their move" is to get margin called on their short. Or they throw in the towel and try to unwind in a more orderly manner. It hasn't happened quite yet but it can't be long.

(Sorry of OT...people seems interested in discussing.)

Also the diff s been going up big time which s gonna limit the supply of CLAM from staking.

I dont know why I have this feeling but I think we re gonna have another pump and after that dump.

Still, things looks much better then 10 days ago.

The supply is mostly constant (1 CLAM per minute +/- randomness and tracking fluctuations). The difficulty going up means it is harder to get a share of it, but the amount stays mostly the same.

Also the diff s been going up big time which s gonna limit the supply of CLAM from staking.

Well, the difficulty adjusts to keep the network staking an average 1 CLAM per minute, so the increase in supply from staking is pretty much steady.

It presumably went up because curious finally dumped the rest of his big stash to buyers who started staking them.

http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/CLAM/charts.php?type=posdifficulty&startheight=700000&mindifficulty=70000&maxdifficulty=100000 shows the difficulty over the last 70k blocks or so. It's not a huge increase really. The 20 block moving average going up from 80k to 90k in around 50 days:

The odds of dooglus getting moderated on this thread are smaller than the odds that dooglus is Satoshi.

If "dooglus gets moderated on CLAMs thread" were a JD bet, it would pay 21 million to one in BTC, and 15 million to one in CLAMs.

I believe there was a situation some time ago where he self-moderated.
