I've never been able to claim CLAMS from old BTC addresses, is there a specific way to do it?
Synced the whole blockchain then pointed to a local BTC wallet.dat file but no luck (with the Windows and Mac Desktop Wallet).
Is there another way to claim CLAMS from old BTC addresses? Any guide anywhere?
Or is this now over and cannot claim anymore?
Check your address using Just-Dice or FreeBitcoins perhaps before dicking around with anything super technical? The address had to be in use ON May 12, 2014 with BTC, DOGE or LTC over "dust".

You have been around long enough to have addresses at that time: September 02, 2013, 03:29:18 AM My issue was that when the distribution happened (May 12, 2014), unfortunately I had just finished consolidating all of my BTC onto paper wallet cold storage. So I only got the CLAMs from those dozen of so cold storage addresses that I had in use on that day. It was shortly after that day that my first Trezor arrived and I started to transfer everything to my Trezor. So none of my Trezor addresses are good.

... I'll pay 0.1 CLAM per address from now on which is more than I promised but probably less than it costs you in power...
Thanks Doog. Here is the last one from me: Address: xJDCLAMZraAiGftMe2SPnB5furwS8jRkXH PrivkeyPart: LndDRrfx89DiyicvMmzggivqYJZiDcnDWE9GcNfDvMfBwGEiRnp8 UID: 4137 I found 10 address altogether at a cost of about 0.34 CLAMS each. If vanitygen's reported difficulty number is what I think it is then there are 2 x 10^36 "JDCLAMZ" addresses. I think you have all the good ones though. Dom 21:01:58 INFO: sent 0.1 CLAM to (4137) <BigDom> [[xJDCLAMZ]] Thanks for all the help Dom. I expect there are some REALLY good ones I don't have yet. 10^36 is a big number. xJDCLAMZBECAUSEJUSTD1CERULEZ8jRkXH is probably out there if we look long enough. I'm referring to syncing a new node
I started syncing in early April and it literally took weeks, though it does seem to have finally completed.
Oh, I see. I don't know why that would be. It syncs pretty quickly for me. I expect the newest version of the code in the git repository would sync better, but I don't know what its status is in terms of reliability. It sounds like you found answers for all your questions. Is there anything still outstanding? I still update the chart in that linked post, but it's not very pretty any more (due to people withdrawing large amounts when the price doubled recently, then depositing again shortly after): My issue was that when the distribution happened (May 12, 2014), unfortunately I had just finished consolidating all of my BTC onto paper wallet cold storage.
I had exactly the same problem. I had tens of thousands of empty addresses and 20 or 30 funded ones. Thanks for the replies, yes I tried with the wallet in the OP 1.4.17, the one in the OP.
I'll try the importprivkey option... May get better luck.
I would recommend finding an address that you think was funded on the distribution date, then going to the Just-Dice.com chat tab and typing in /dig followed by a space, followed by the address, then hitting return. It will tell you whether the address really was funded on that date, and whether the CLAMs are still available.

Neither of those. It is based entirely on the number of different addresses you have which contained (non dust) funds on 12th May 2014. You get 4.6 CLAMs for each of them.

This is what I did: 1) Downloaded the clam client. It was taking forever so I downloaded the block chain snapshots. This took a few days. 2) Emptied out my Bitcoin wallet (transferred all the coins to my Trezor hardware wallet). 3) Imported my Bitcoin wallet into my Clam wallet. 4) Got a few clams because some of the addresses in my Bitcoin wallet had value on the distribution date. Pretty easy. There is a lot of information about this if you just search for it. Try Google. That is the search engine I use. why only on that particular day there is a reason behind this?
Because it is by far the fairest and most efficient way to create an initial distribution of coins. If you have an idea for a better way you can, of course, create your own coin using your method.

I don't know why the particular block heights were chosen. I didn't hear about CLAM until a while after it launched. The specific blocks at which the snapshots were taken: BTC block 300377 (2014-05-12 12:48:17) LTC block 565693 (2014-05-12 13:06:31) DOGE block 218556 (2014-05-12 13:09:17)

It's a snapshot. It was all addresses that had non-dust amounts at that second in time. This is the same process that millions of other coins have done. Take ETH/ETC, if you had ETH when there block chain forked, you had just as many ETC. This is almost the same. If you had BTC/LTC/DOGE at the snapshot time, in an address, you got clams. Actually you have forever to claim them, but you only got them if you had addresses at the snapshot time. They took a snap shot of each block chain. Calculated what addresses had non-dust amounts still in them at that point. Then preloaded the clams blockchain with 4.3 clams per clams address that corrosponded to the BTC/LTC/DOGE address.

It is actually not even remotely the same, for better or worse. Giving equal amounts to near-dust as large balances enormously changes the distribution. In the sense of being a snapshot of a single block, I would assume that part is correct but I wasn't around and haven't looked closely so I can't be sure.

Yes You just need to be able to get to the .dat or the private key.
