Does anyone have the last 3 weeks for the blockchain?

I just updated the bootstrap.dat file linked in this post.

I've been out of the loop for quite awhile,
I want to re-sync my wallet but I heard clams has over 1GB+ blockchain data  Lips sealed
so I'm searching for any lightweight or web based wallet...
If I'm not mistaken, I saw clams icon on coinomi list of supported altcoins
anyone using coinomi wallet here? what's your opinion about it, thanks.

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

Quote
addnode=31.204.128.80:31174
addnode=74.207.230.61:31174
addnode=220.239.41.71:31174
addnode=98.18.252.73:31174
addnode=213.239.208.169:31174
addnode=67.205.153.62:31174
addnode=178.63.60.7:9025
addnode=72.48.98.106:31174
addnode=139.162.195.69:18333
addnode=170.130.28.186:31174


Finally got some decently connected peers (9 total).  I added these nodes to two files i created: clam.conf and clamd.conf.  Anyway I can improve my number of connections, also am i doing it right?  Thanks!

 So, few years after the launch I can tell CLAM's distribution model was healthy. The main problem is to involve fresh blood into the ecosystem...

I think the main reason for less CLAM on the sell side of the order book is that unlike most coins there are strong incentives to keep your CLAMs in the JD bankroll or stake them yourself.

Clamcoin one of the best altcoin!  Smiley

You are right tonbit1239, many of us feel that way.


A lot of the CLAMMunity has to sell coins to survive in real life.

I know a number of people that sell the coins they stake and save the "CLAM mining rig" as their investment.

I see Clamcoins like little digital mining rigs that can be broken down into very very very small units.

CLAM investors are either: Very rich and don't mind OR People hustling hard to finally have a "stable" income in their life.  Not much in between Tongue!

I do not fully agree with this analisys. I don't need CLAM (or any altcoin) to survive and I am certaninly not rich. I have a small amount, which I love, and would like to get more. I hope to achieve this by selling Clam high and buying more back low. To do this the price needs to fluctuate and shouldn't get too high.
If there are many investors like myself the price will not go up quickly because we try to sell at every peak and hope the price will drop again. This may be one of the reasons the price is so stable.

Personally I don't care much if Clam is worth $10 or $100 at this time, I just want as much clam as I can get my (virtual) hands on. When I have reached my goal, the price may soar but until then I'd rather it stays low.

Clamcoin is one of the every few coins with graphs like this one. MORE buyers than sellers and yet they are selling it at 0.0020!! why?

Why are people selling so cheaply when it is very obvious that there is a huge demand and very few sellers.

Why not hit 0.0035 and higher, i dont get it.

Does anyone have the last 3 weeks for the blockchain?

I completely reinstalled CLAM to try to get my transaction to go through but the last posted blockchain was only until September 9th. It's not taking about 5+ hours per day to catch up even though I have 16 connections. I did all of LTC blockchain in 4 hours. This one is taking literal days.

Anyone having any issues with getting transactions through? I sent one earlier today took about ~10-15 mins for first transaction. Now I've been sitting at 40 minutes still not one confirmation and the transaction ID doesn't show up in the block explorer?
You can do an easy test at freebitcoins.com and get a small payment from the faucet. If that shows up in your wallet, the network is working fine.
Thanks I'll try. Original transaction still hasn't got a single confirmation..
Where are you sending from?  If it's not in the block explorer, there is a good chance it hasn't been broadcast to the network.  In which case something is going on at the sender.  
I sent it from the qt like I did earlier today. But just this one isn't confirming, I've tried restarting it and nothing is working. Worried about losing the coins now.
 
  
chilly2k is basically spot on with his advice.  
Ensure you have connections to some peers, so that the transaction has a means to get out to the network.  
If the CLAM shows as still attributed to your pubkey/address, then there should be nothing to be concerned about.  
Worst case, you have to rescan and/or resync and send again (assuming the above).

So basically it is possible to create a private fork and lose sync with the network by staking while you are still syncing. Can you go a (few) block(s) back and resync or do you have to reload the entire blockchain?
Shouldn't there be a safety buildin that if the block you created isn't accepted by the network that it is discarded and you keep syncing with blocks that have been accepted? That way you cannot create your own fork.
Simply prevent your mature blocks from staking while the wallet syncs.

Go to console and type

reservebalance true and a number bigger than the number of CLAM you have

i.e.
reservebalance true 99999


Console response

{
"reserve" : true,
"amount" : 99999.00000000
}


Now the wallet will not stake mature blocks until

reservebalance false

is entered, or the wallet is restarted.

   Is your wallet sync'ed, and is it at the same block height as the block explorer?  Maybe your on your own fork.  I wouldn't worry about losing the coins, if they're not on the main block chain then there still yours. 
I'm not sure if a re-index or rescan would help.  Kind of sounds like you'll need to do something like that, but it's over my head now.  You can also check the debug file, and see if you in some kind of a loop.  You may just need to restart the wallet, if you haven't tried that yet.
