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

I think this is pertinent - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F12lpqnug-0

Indeed.

My wallet has been syncing for a week now and I am still 8 weeks out. I used the bootstrap and it is still taking forever any suggestions?

Hey guys. I just posted a suggestion on freewallet.org for the developer to integrate CLAM into their wallet service. I think this would be excellent for the CLAM comunity as we are in need of a mobile wallet, and it also would spread awareness about the CLAM project. Please for "CLAM Wallet" at: https://freewallet.org/vote

A couple of things:
1) I read here that freewallet.org holds user private keys, so you have to trust them not to exit-scam. I'm not sure that's a good idea. Most wallets let the user have exclusive control of their own private keys.
2) I don't see any way of voting on the page you linked to. Do I need to make an account or something first?  Edit: oh, it was because I had javascript disabled. Never mind...

 
  
Ewww... 
 
Edit:

Yes I am aware of that, and I personally would approach such a service with caution. You must trust the holder of your private keys (as a trust doog with my CLAMs). I still encourage CLAM users to vote to spread awareness of the project, even if they don't intend on using the wallet personally.

Is it still using the bootstrap file?

I will create a boostrap, put it in a password protected tarball and upload it to mega. Bear in mind, I will share a secret passphrase only with myself. I will be the only one who will be able to bootstrap a chain. I will laugh hard at ur attempts to guess a password to that archive.

Plain text bootstraps are available. You can publish your encrypted copy if you like but why would anyone care?

Earlier today I somehow managed to corrupt a wallet.dat file that had 10k CLAMs in it.

Code:

$ clamd
Clam server starting
Error: wallet.dat corrupt, salvage failed
$ 

All attempts at salvaging the private key failed until I remembered this old post:

I looked for 'undelete' programs, but didn't find anything that looked useful. I found this thread, but the git repository seems to have died. So I wrote my own simple "privkey finder":

It turns out the code in that thread worked as-is on the CLAM wallet, and provided the private key I needed to recover the 10k CLAMs.

It spat out the privkey in hex format. I then used http://clamaddress.org/ to convert it to the WIF format that 'importprivkey' accepts.

Phew!

Nice save.

No, Flat rate POS.  1 clam per block.

What's the outlook for clam in 2017 ? Any further development ?

Nice but, could you help to integrate the code into clam daemon?

By doing this every clam user will be able to use it when necessary.

That's not a bad idea. It could build a new wallet with the private keys it finds in an existing corrupt wallet file.

The "In process" label makes it look like yobit didn't send the coins yet. You should contact their support and ask for help there.

It could be that their CLAM wallet has crashed and nobody noticed yet for instance. Or maybe they need to refill their hot wallet.
