The major difference is in my opinion:
Bitcoin is Proof of Work. So a third party miner is spinning the network and adding security.
CLAM is Proof of Stake. So the coins them self are spinning and securing the network
Think of the two like companies:
Bitcoin your voting power is in a third party machine that has nothing to do with the company.
CLAM your voting power is the coin itself and that is the economy as well.
CLAM is scary cause someone with enough money could buy out the voting power and rule the system. Bitcoin has a bit more security due to the number of computers and such already in the world, but it is still a concern such as ASIC and future tech.
Blending the two together is going to be the bread and butter of these two coins. It's the crowd that floats around BTC and CLAM that make them interesting.
FreeBitcoins.com is in the process of beginning to combine the two in what I believe is the "proper" way.
So I wrote this, do you agree with me?
In the global economy, cash is increasingly unable to meet the rapidly growing demand for trading. Include USD transactions when you have to complete a series of strict procedures due to foreign exchange policy. Cash can also be tracked, confiscated or taxed. Bitcoin was able to overcome some of those shortcomings, making P2P trading much easier and more free. Global economic change really becomes a flat world. However Bitcoin still has some shortcomings that are lacking in fairness and too slow processing.
Bitcoin's Proof of Work system makes the power more and more focused on the professional miner, the individual miner who can not compete with the larger miner. This goes against the ideals of a decentralized Blockchain system and can lead to a 51% attack. Anyone who has 51% of the digging capacity can manipulate the entire system and deal fraud by offering fake blocks, rejecting valid blocks that other communities dig. Another unfair thing to do is that the transaction is fast or slow depending on the amount of money the trader accepts when transferring Bitcoin to the block. People who are willing to spend more money will be able to trade faster, while less money will have to wait a lot longer. A current average cost of Bitcoin transaction can take from 2 to 4 days to be confirmed.
The CLAMS coin has overcome that, right from its initial slogan, "The Fairly Crypto Currency." With the Proof of Stake system, just as you prove that you own a stake in that CryptoCurrency you will be able to mine equivalent. If you own 3% of CLAMS, you will have the right to mine 3% of the new fresh CLAMS. The scale of extraction will be linear. Encourage the community to engage in transactions, promote decentralization and more democracy. With this system, a CLAMS transaction takes only about 10 minutes and is fair to everyone even the rich or the poor.
The Proof of Stake system is currently considered the current best system for the BlockChain system. Ethereum (ETH) is also evolving to switch from PoW to PoS and is already 75% progressive, which will be completed by the end of the year.
On the Coinmarketcap website, CLAMS currently has a capitalization of $ 15 million at $ 6.5 per share on May 25, 2017 and is listed on major exchanges such as Poloniex and Bitrex. Especially CLAMS is one of the few coin that Poloniex allows Margin so experienced trader can surf large without too much initial capital investment.
