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

[picolo]

Yes. My concerns are about the fact it hasn't been widely used for a long time so there might be some weaknesses not yet found and that the coin is very linked to just-dice.

I'm not sure what any of what you said means really.

Clam is nearing 8 months old and while its true its now more widely used because of the exposure from JD we have in the past fixed any problems quickly and are constantly trying to better the codebase for Proof Of Stake. If you have any specific issues we'd be more then happy to take a look at them otherwise what your saying is meaningless.

I know of literally no software that doesn't fit what you've suggested regardless of use. I think the ability to adapt to the situations that present themselves and mitigate issues as they happen is the key in the ever changing world of software development.

And being linked to JD is certainly only temporary, it has after all only been reopened for just over a month. Bitcoin itself when it was in its growing years was tied to gambling when it comes to exposure. Think Satoshi-dice and also Just-dice when it used bitcoin which at points held ungodly amounts of bitcoin on its servers.

With exposure comes more people invested into the ecosystem which means more services and a more balanced network.

I agree the client and the coin seem strong but if just-dice is accepting bitcoins too the price of CLAM should go down.

just-dice is not accepting bitcoins... only CLAM

I think there's only half a million of these floating around, many of them not for sale, so price is unlikely to go down.  Get them while you can.

Half a million of them have been dug but half a million of them will be created every year just by stacking plus probably tens of thousands of new CLAM will be dug in the next 12 months

A: JD doesn't and won't accept BTC (as per doogs posts)  CLAM showed love to every BTC address, so that base is covered.

B: A half Million haven't been dug.

10:20:04 INFO: 60,143 of 3,208,032 sets of 4.60545574 CLAM were dug up so far from the initial distribution
10:20:04 INFO: 276,986 CLAM were dug up and 182,966 CLAM were staked for a total of 459,952 CLAM
10:20:04 INFO: Just-Dice's bankroll of 290,574 CLAM represents 63.17% of that amount
10:20:04 INFO: if all the distributed CLAMs were dug up, the total money supply would be 14,957,367 CLAM

The investors at JD had 50k BTC when BTC was at $1000... I don't think too many are going to be rushing to sell their 1 staked a day to keep the 1 light bulb in their mud hut on

I would def say that the Buyers out weigh the Sellers.

Looking for testers for the new osx client. 

Its been running on our developers system for over a week with no issues but we'd like a sanity check before we go ahead and release it officially.

I am making a new bootstrap.dat and then realized that some might ONLY want it to come from dooglus.

If anyone is interested I can edit the post with a URL and sign the message and add sha-1 and md5 hashes.  It is through block 285,000.

Can the blockchain be copied over from the Windows client, or must it be completely downloaded again?

I've honestly never tired... but I would suspect yes.  I'll try myself later this evening

I've just installed the new CLAM Wallet on MacOSX Yosemite.  I loaded the application and it started to download the blockchain.  I closed the client and then I was able to copy across the blockchain and wallet from my Windows machine.  Files were copied from Windows (%appdata%\Clam) to MacOSX (~/Library/Application Support/Clam).  I restarted the client after the copy was complete and the blockchain and wallet were available and in sync.

The only thing I had to change in the new client was to stop using the black visual theme (under Options => Display) so that I could see the mouseover text for the locked/encrypted, staking, network connections, up to date icons (in the bottom left of the window).  When using the black visual theme, the transparency was hard to read.  I tried it against my dark wallpaper/background and against a light background but it didn't really make a difference.  I do like the black theme but I can't use it atm.

CLAM is like a micheal jordan rookie card. everyone wants one and they are drying up fast. 3000 clam dumped 2 hours a go. didnt affect price at all


well. went -0.0054 to 0.005. but went back to 0.0054 in 10min.




polo used to have 8000-9000 clam in sell. now it never more than 4000




i love clam and know its going to up. fun to make money on altcoin again.


ride the wave. ups n downs like clockwork

But what would happen if just-dice closes or accept BTC?

Those CLAMs may still be on Poloniex just not on the orderbooks, I bet they show back up when the prices rises a bit. I think 0.005 is a nice floor until next week.

I don't think JD has any intention of closing down, I'm sure the owner wouldn't do that to us or himself after the time and money he's put into the project.

[Vortex20000]

This coin is doing better than I expected, and works very well as far as I've used it.  Congrats.

Avatar is familiar, toddtervy...

Anyway yes, CLAM is doing well. I lost most of my clam today gambling at JD, but that comes with the tides of fortune. Buying back in with what I have in other assets.

You should not have copied over the style.qss file.
Delete that one and you should be good.

Thanks for testing!

Dont put any BTC in SClAMs if you are not prepared to lose it.

I am convinced this Coin will ultimately show how bad Piece of Shit (POS) coins are laid out without POW.

Hey Uv! please, tell us what you think! Your opinion matters very much to us!  (that was sarcasm in case you couldn't detect it)
We haven't had a troll in a while so thanks for meeting our troll quota for the week on the forum!  

I see your trolling has finally extended beyond the JD trollbox. I won't bother engaging in your opinions as I've realized trolls don't accept logic. In fact from my experience the more logical you are the more the trolling continues.

Have a great day friend!

Random letter names are always dumb & I always wondered what uvwvj stood for.

I think I figured it out..

uvwvj = ugly vagina wearing vulgar jockstrap !!  

 

Take care ugly vagina
