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

[BayAreaCoins]

So far two Charities now accept CLAM. I personally believe that both of these are OP worthy!

(Seans will not be able to add the address publicly until they all vote it at a board meeting. Adding it to the OP will be one of the only ways ppl can find it.)

I wonder if he could sign a message that states their CLAM address with their public BTC donation address.

That would be much more convincing than 'some guy calling themselves "SeansOutpost" on JD chat said it'.

[SeansOutpost]

Yep, that's our address.

[prospect]

So you announce, on the first page that "clam speech" is some fucking huge thing haha,

This is just retarded.

Wtf.

I think the idea is that you fill in your own speech rather than use the pre-filled values. Or maybe that someone submits a pull request changing to the default template strings to something more sensible?

Edit: I just noticed I nearly used 'religion' and 'sensible' in the same sentence!

if i dont have much coins about 60 only...is it impossible to stake it right?

[dooglus]

No, it's still possible.

At the moment, the network stake weight is around 280k. So your 60 is 1/4667 th of the total.

That means you can expect to earn 1 CLAM every 4667 minutes or so.

That's once per 77.77 hours, or 3.25 days.

Luck plays a huge part, but that's the kind of staking frequency you can expect with 60 CLAMs.

Wtf.

I've maintained a pretty tough skin as far as this thread goes.....up until now. This attack upon the Invisible Pink Unicorn is going too far.

Sounds about right, I have like 85 and staked two in a bit less than a week.

LMFAO...   Good one.

I just checked 'getstakinginfo' again. The network weight reported has gone up 10%:

before:    "netstakeweight" : 281163.55080207,
after:     "netstakeweight" : 317170.45397439,

So clearly any estimates I make will be just that. The network weight itself is just an estimate, based on how long the last bunch of blocks took to find, and their difficulty.

It's not possible to know the real network stake weight - just like it's not possible to know the global Bitcoin hashrate. All we can do is estimate it based on the network difficulty.

Maybe you would prefer if we declare you the global authority on what constitutes the "serious", "one true" faith?

Would it make you feel less uncomfortable if we let you censor and pick favorites among the list?


You appear to have either missed, or willfully ignored, the entire point of CLAMspeech.

Created a new section in the links area; added the above two charities.

[rocoro]

My last 7 stakes were "generated but not accepted" - shown in the transactions section,  you have to look there for it doesn't show on the main screen.

Seems staking this coin has become too difficult / not viable.

Are any solutions to this in the works?

[Deathwing]

Really cool coin, with the support of Just-Dice. I see a potential.

This seems a bit odd. I checked back 100 stakes and there has not been a single orphan. Doesn't sound right if you've had 7 in a row.

Now that I look more closely, none of the 368 transactions in my list - the majority being stakes - are showing as an orphan, or 0 confirmations. I wonder if I'm just lucky, or whether the text-only daemon is suppressing them for some reason.

That sounds like your clock is wrong.

Can you check it against an accurate source and confirm that it's off by more than a few seconds?

Also, can you provide the block hashes and timestamps? I'll check the JD logs to see if we saw the blocks, and if so why we rejected them.

Well, they were not really right in a row.. but close.  I will try to post a screenshot soon

Edit: screenshot.. 


The greyed-out ones are them...  there were a couple more down the list further too.

Thanks, I'll try to check my clock too!

Edit:



Should clock be ok now?
