As CLAM grows I believe the block reward can be removed entirely due to high number of transactions with fees + low energy costs.

That's going to be a up hill fight to get the block reward removed and honestly I like the block reward + fees. Cheesy

This is the regex to find/check an address
Code:
^[x][a-km-zA-HJ-NP-Z0-9]{26,33}$

I mainly use javascript so I am not sure how to apply in php, its a step forward though.

Staking is 1 coin per block plus fees, 1440 coins per day. Forever! No block halvings or other nonsense.

This can change though.

I imagine the block reward will be reduced in the next 2 years or so.

Why's that?

This works... using the regex from Nixsy:

Code:
$regex = "/^[x][a-km-zA-HJ-NP-Z0-9]{26,33}$/";
if (preg_match($regex, "xWEWfhF9hDvKksvWgFj6kmseLYShZG9Kx8")) {
    // match success
    echo "Found a match!";
} else {
    // If preg_match() returns false, then the regex does not
    // match the string
    echo "The regex pattern does not match. :(";
}

New page reminder that I think these are good threads to keep bumped!

We need ppl to see CLAM and dig their CLAMS... even if that means they are selling them!

Why's that?

One of the things that sold me on CLAM was the linear distribution curve

 I wouldn't get to nervous about this.  That's one Man's opinion, note the use of the word "imagine".  

   To keep a POS coin network alive you need to have lot's of nodes moving the block chain along.  The people running the nodes need to be compensated for there time and resources.  At present, the transaction fees are increasing, but don't amount to much.  In the last 6 stakes I've made .0014 from the fees.  hardly enough incentive to keep a node running.  

  BTC generates a 25 coin per block reward for the miners.  They try to average 6 blocks per hour.  So that's 150 BTC per hour Vs. Clams 60 clams per hour.  And the CLAMS block chain is 10X faster then BTC.  When BTC halves the block reward to 12.5 they will still be generating more coins then CLAMS, and the blockchian will still be 10X slower.  

    There may come a day when the volume of Clam transactions, and thus the transaction fee's, are high enough to sustain a network.  If or when that will happen is anyone's guess...

    That's just my opinion.

Mac fag checking in.  Running 1.4.10 and smooth sailing so far.  Staking and all.  
Curious behaviour as the staking icon goes red more than I've ever seen but I can't
see a problem.

Does it go red for long periods at a time? Long enough that you can hover the mouse over it and tell me what pops up when it's red?

If you put:
debug=stake
in the clam.conf file in the same folder as your wallet.dat and restart, it will write stake-related stuff to debug.log in the same folder as it stakes.

You could "tail -f debug.log" in that folder and see whether anything looks different when it's red. Staking basically consists of hashing each of your staking outputs every 16 seconds and comparing the result with a target based on the network difficulty. If the output hashes lower than the target, you get to stake a block. "debug=stake" will cause these hashes that are being compared to be logged.

I couldn't find an existing one, so I created a clam.conf and added debug=stake.  I'm hoping I did it correctly.  I added a screengrab of data flow. http://imgur.com/Gmcfbf8 When I hover the cursor over the red icon, it sometimes says 0 weight.  And then other times it says not staking because I don't have mature coins.  But then I stake at least once a day.  

Hope this helps.  Thanks for everything!  

/s/

Same thing was happening to me on a previous version (1.4.7 i think)  and the 0 weight was also showing.
I haven't seen it happen to me again yet on this latest version.. but I'll watch for it.



It can stay red for up to one minute, i've seen it myself. When you hover over it says 'Not staking because you don't have mature coins'

It doesn't appear to affect staking in the long run, i always just put it down to new blocks being generated and that it was a normal thing.

I have the debug switch on at the moment so i'll try and upload the debug.log next time i see it happen.

I think I caught a red patch in the debug log.  This is the point where it was red and then normalized:

Any update on why this happens ?   Mine seemed to stay red longer this morning
Edit:  also seems to be happening more frequently (icon turning red)

Edit #2:  Restarted wallet and symptom seems to have mysteriously disappeared (for now?)

I don't see anything wrong with a linear distribution curve.

With the combination of more people digging up clams and the increase of clams from POS rewards the inflation will decrease over time.

Seems Coinimal is very selective with their coins, they only offer BTC LTC NXT and CLAM
