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

Updated Clam Client

To speed things up downloaded the CLAM blockchain - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=623147.7740

Checked btc address at Just-Dice > yes CLAMS waiting

Exported private key from Blockchain.info in WIF format

Put importprivkey xxxxxx into CLAM client console > enter > looks ok, blue icon with cross

No CLAMS

Recheck Clam address at just dice, clams still not dug


If I try Just Dice instead is it ok to use the auto allocated account or would it be advisable to set up a user/pass account?

new to clams here

downloaded wallet, downloaded blockchain, it opened, scanned, only has 2 active connections

is there a peer list that can be added?

Yes.

It should be just a few pages back I believe... someone recently posted a list.

Welcome to the Clammunity

I let it run for about 12 hours, it got upto about 7 peers, but never started to sync.  Something must be wrong with the blockchain I DL'd, or something.  Gonna have to give it another shot.

You should set up a user name and password just to be safe.

I highly recommend scanning your .dat with FreeBitcoins after digging fee free at Just-dice... this will insure that you've got all those hidden "change" wallets as well.

clamclient uses much of memory up to 765mb i guess due to excess clam address anyway to delete this

try the importprivkey bitcoinkey then get clam address and check http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/CLAM/address.php if you have clam coin also check the particular block whereby you are to receive the clam coin then check you wallet to see if you synced up to the particular block to receive your clam

Anyone else getting large network usage?

CLAM seems to use more network that any client I have, often peaking around 2-3 Mbps
2GB in 6GB out in two days.

It sounds like you have forked peers stuck in a loop, so they just request the same blocks over, and over, and over. Common problem with coin clients. Are you using a reasonably current version? See if debug.log mentions anything like "leap backwards in height request" or "sync repeatedly leaping backwards to lower height". If not, try upgrading to a newer version which should ban peers that are looping.

My wallet is at "2 years and 8 weeks behind" from like 10 hours ago. Is that normal?

It will depend on your machine to some extent but I started a bootstrap re-sync 14 hours ago and I'm currently 1 year 17 weeks behind if that helps..

Which client are you using? I'm using 1.4.17.

Now down to 44 weeks

If the wallet seems to be stalled, try exiting then restarting. The client won't track more than 750 orphans - blocks that don't directly extend your local blockchain - which may happen if blocks arrive out of order. (This seems to be the norm for CLAM, for some reason.) Restarting the client clears those orphans from memory.

Syncing has been a long-time problem with the client, and as the blockchain grows it's only going to get worse.
