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

[dooglus]

I'd be interested in some txids if anyone makes a withdrawal from Poloniex. I'm curious whether they're still processing the faucet dust outputs or ignoring them.

Just made a test withdrawal form polo, it works with no issue, and very fast - in about 1 minute Clams arrived. So no worry about processing Clams by polo atm.

  @dooglus:  TX for you send via. PM, to you could check what you need.

Thanks. I've been sent two Poloniex withdrawal transactions now. One had lots of dust spam inputs and paid over 100 times too much fee, and the other had only two large inputs and paid the correct amount of fee. So I'm just as confused as before.

It's a fucking shame that the other half of the CLAM holders/services are to stupid to stake their coins.

Your not kidding.

It's good for those of us who do stake. We'd be earning half as much if twice as many CLAMs were trying to stake.

Stuck trying to sync the client.

Already downloaded and imported the bootstrap file and added the node list provided by Miner2525 above. This got me close but I am still 4 weeks behind with no connections.

Also added nodes at http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/CLAM/nodes.php

Any suggestions or nodes that are always up?

Well, the quickest way would be just to get whole block chain for this coin; so I have made copy of it for you (and others) up to actual of block number @1628950  (Sat aug. 5 2017).
Peers file included.
You can download it=> unzip=> put into right folder - and job done.
Don't forget to copy your wallet.dat file before, if you have some coins already.

Good luck

Thank you for this! Now I also have the wallet synced and received my clams!

[smooth]

Syncing this chain is very, very painful due to some long-unfixed bugs. However, it does seem to eventually work (after weeks or even months). I've done it twice.

is it been accepted on any stores or website as payment
What is the use case of clam coin?

is this coin dead or what the price us at 110k sats for so many years

I just updated my bootstrap post. Now it goes up to block 1629500 which was staked on Sat Aug  5 23:18:40 UTC 2017.

You can also download partial bootstrap files which contain 10,000 blocks each - so you can get just the blocks you're missing, pretty much.

See my original bootstrap post for details.

As for your node not finding peers, I just noticed my seeding node was down. I've rebooted it, so maybe try again now. It might "just work".

Finally, here are the top 10 nodes according to my seeder:

31.204.128.80:31174
74.207.230.61:31174
220.239.41.71:31174
98.18.252.73:31174
213.239.208.169:31174
67.205.153.62:31174
178.63.60.7:9025
72.48.98.106:31174

Is there like a web based version of a clam coin wallet? I am just curious. Clam is like more than a year or two. Somebody must have developed an online wallet version.

[Za1n]

Thanks for the relies and all the efforts to provide the updated bootstraps. I ended up being able to sync normally as it seems that I finally found a peer or two since my last post and it is now updated!

I am sure the bootstrap files will be quite useful for others though since finding online peers seems to be the major hurdle for most.

My wallet shows that I am now staking my meager stash of around 200 clams that I claimed from various old keys. The client says it will take 6 days to complete the stake.

Does this mean I need to stay connected to a peer for the entire 6 days? If a peer drops off during this time does the staking process hang, start over again, or does the stake become forfeit? Peer connectivity seems to be the main sticking point with people getting into this coin right now.

170.130.28.186:31174

Thanks for the updated node list!

This was probably the biggest help yet actually. I have now imported this list and the client is up to 9 active peers, whereas before I only managed to ever connect to one or two at a time.

My other questions from above do not seem as urgent now, although the answers still might be helpful in general.

I haven't found an online version that isn't an exchange (Bittrex, Cryptopia), but I have found an android version. It is one of the many coins that Coinomi supports. I installed Coinomi on 2 devices and restored a backup from the first one on the second one and both are working fine. Remember that you can't stake from an android wallet.

[ScubaFuz]

I have created a slot machine in vb.net which turned out quite nice (bar-style, not casino-style) and I would like to rebuild this into an online CLAM powered version. Unfortunately my programming skills are insufficient for this and I'd lke to team up with someone who knows how to build this. If someone is interested, I can show you what I've made so far.
(Am I allowed to add a download link to a post?)
