dump round 2 soon hit 50k again, bye2 clam holder

I'm thinking his wall was attacked prior to him pulling. The chart shows about 26K clam (~52BTC) sold in 3 minutes down to 200ksat. There was a rebound in the next minute to 205ksat suggesting some kind of support still, then in the next minute, bam, another 26K sold down to 163ksat. In the concluding minute 15K was sold pushing price down to 50ksat, presumably as longs were liquidated.

I do not think many actors here have enough liquidity for such operations.

What happened? What was the dump about?

@boydatinh3107
What operating system are you using? You can download the complete dat-file, one at the time and then merge them into bootstrap.dat, or one at the time and rename them to bootstrap.dat.

It is a separate download: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9772191

I just downloaded 1.4.17, it only has 4 files: clamd, clam-qt, test_bitcoin and test_bitcoin-qt

@Timetwister
If you download the complete dat-file and specify in clam.conf file, it will read the transactions from the file instead of via the web. It will still take up to 10 hours or more to complete.

I made an updated bootstrap.dat file for people having trouble syncing their client.

It goes up to block 1720900 which was staked on Sun Oct  8 23:57:52 UTC 2017.

It's available as a download here:

  bootstrap.dat

or as a torrent here:

  bootstrap.dat.torrent

Download it, put it into the same folder as your CLAM wallet.dat, then restart the client.

If you are using the QT client, it will say "importing blocks" in the lower left corner while the bootstrap.dat file is imported. That is how you can tell that the file is being used.

It will take a while to import it, but it will be a lot faster than trying to sync using the p2p network.

When it is done, the client will rename the file to bootstrap.dat.old and won't look at it again.

Once it has been renamed you can delete it if you like.

To verify that you have the right file:


Edit: I also made a series of 'partial' bootstrap files. Each one contains the block data for 10,000 blocks.

  https://s3.amazonaws.com/dooglus/bootstrap-000.dat is blocks 0 through 9999
  https://s3.amazonaws.com/dooglus/bootstrap-001.dat is blocks 10000 through 19999
  https://s3.amazonaws.com/dooglus/bootstrap-002.dat is blocks 20000 through 29999
  etc.

I'll add a new one for each new set of 10k blocks. Currently they go up to bootstrap-171.dat

So if you already have everything up to block 492123 and want to get up to date, download the -049, -050, etc. files, append them all together in order into bootstrap.dat in the same folder as your CLAM wallet.dat and restart the client.

In Windows you can append the files together by running "cmd", and using something like:


In Linux the command would be:

Some whale dropped a huge amount of coins on Polo. As a rough estimate 10% or more of the supply. He sold a ton between 80-60K too. Doesn't seem to make much sense.


Looking at the 5 min chart, it seems like his wall got eaten?

What happened to Clams? According to CoinMarketCap the price dropped 50% in one day and there was a lot of trading. People wanting to get rid of their Clams? No fun now I just claimed mine.

nope I guess it is more linked with price manipulation!

There were huge buy walls to artificially rise the price, than those walls disappeared and BOOM!
