Proof of Stake based on Proof of Work One of the most asked question I've had lately since Just-dice reopened with Clamcoin is "How can I mine Clamcoin?" Well you can't... you have to dig them!
CLAM was Proof of Work when it was first made. The developers then gave every Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dogecoin address 4.6 CLAMS and burnt the left over.
Right now you have serveral options as far as digging your CLAMS.
If you do have CLAM be sure to empty off the other coins and never use that address again once you dig CLAMS (better safe than sorry.)
Now you have two options here:
EASIEST:1.
https://freebitcoins.com/clamchecker/dig/ (manual)
2.
https://freebitcoins.com/clamchecker/dig_wallet/ (automated digging)
2. Check any address for free in order to see if it has Clamcoins.
3. Follow the digging options for your payment in Bitcoin directly or Clamcoin.
HARDEST:1.
www.ClamCoin.org2. Download CLAM wallet.
3. Download the
boostrap for the wallet that Dooglus has created.
4. Click magic button in the CLAM wallet and it sniffs out your CLAMS for you. This finds switch address and all that in between!
Once you have the CLAM you can stake them against the network in order to mine. The coins have to be online and it is easy to do on your own from your own wallet.
There are several pool websites that allow you to have a wallet instantly + stake coins.
