I'm all out of CLAMs. I sold 50 btc at 0.00076 and about 50 btc more around 0.0008. That's it for me. The price should go up now. Great for those that got in at such a cheap price!

To those among the buyers of these CLAMs: Please consider staking some of them with my pool or on your own. If they all find there way into the JD bankroll, it does nothing to help decentralize the network. In practice I do expect a lot of them to find their way there though.




I support this message. I can understand why someone might be hesitant to move their already-staking CLAMS from JD since they'd be losing out on 4 hours maturity time. But for the new yet-to-be-staked CLAMS, there's no excuse. Decentralize your CLAMS people  Wink

In my pool you don't lose out (unless your deposit is huge relative to the pool). I made a deliberate decision not to impose a waiting period on new deposits because at this point and especially earlier existing pool members benefit from growing the pool. You start accruing your share of staking immediately upon deposit.

This can't be gamed because of the rule against excessively frequent deposits and withdraws. If someone tried to deposit, claim an unfair share of the staking, and then withdraw I would consider that a violation of the rule and make an adjustment.

In the future if the pool becomes large I will account for the maturity time on new deposits more explicitly (probably with a small deposit fee that will be paid to existing pool members).

Only 12 million + more undug clams to go

Who will hit the next jackpot?

Wink

I assume a lot of clams were distributed to "lost" addresses, ie addresses that were "migratory" in one way or another, ones that had miniscule amounts of currency in them, on exchanges or in private wallets, that have been lost forever because people didn't keep them or don't even remember about them. I know I have at least 5 such addresses that I didn't bother keeping credentials for.
I am curious however just what percentage of the total clam supply has fallen victim to such lost addresses.

It would be interesting to know, but probably impossible to figure out.

Our CLAM - The CLAMour Specification


This looks like a lot of work in a short time by the CLAM devs.

I suggest a proposal created by CLAMour be called .... a CLAMidea

That way a person can say, "I have a CLAMidea".

WARNING:  Don't say, "I have CLAMidea".



You made me rofl. Not sure if i can read irony about the clamification of words in this too but it's hilarious.

or CLAP (CLAm Proposal) for short.

Dev1:  Did you get the CLAP?
Dev2:  Whattt?

They will stake separately, but may be recombined when you stake, depending on your config.
So, how do you set the config so they won't recombine?
Thanks.
^bump  ..  does anyone else happen to know?

Don't have a client available at the moment, but it should be listed with the other execution flags.

-nostakesplit, possibly?

EDIT:
Can set -combinelimit, re: https://github.com/nochowderforyou/clams/commit/92b99052b055802ae80dcc996155f85f417d5618
Can set -splitsize, re: https://github.com/nochowderforyou/clams/commit/3f15194aa8ca2ad22e538554813a3967ca8596fe

Thanks!
so for example..  
If I have output amounts as piles of 5..  and I set ./clamd -combinelimit=5    (set to 5 or less?)
Then it won't combine into larger piles right?


^bump...     plus how do I use -staketo

just this?:
./clamd -staketo=

Yeah, "clamour" is the British English equivalent of "clamor." For the sake of brevity, it started as "clamor," but "clamour" has the words "our" and "clam" in it.

About the 10,000 block frame: That's a moving frame. There is no deadline for votes; instead, whenever >50% of blocks staked in any 10,000 block window express support of a petition, that's considered a majority. So in effect, the vote can occur any time.

I'd just like to take a moment and thank Kefkius who's development with CLAM has been invaluable. We haven't said so yet officially, but we consider him part of the team Smiley



I still don't really understand what's supposed to happen in the event of a successful vote. Can you expand on that? So far I gather that nothing really happens, it's just a metric you can use to assess whether x% of people are likely to run a new fork with your proposed changes. It'd be up to the petition-maker to implement any changes they'd like to see, and convince people to run the new version.

Is that about the gist of it?

Your first part is correct,  it is a metric that can be used to assess the current "will" of the network. Its up to the petition-maker to gain support for their idea.. but not necessarily required for them to have code. By having the vote you will already know if people are willing to run the new version or not..  no convincing should really be required assuming the vote reaches majority.

I personally suggest a formal place to create a detailed plan of implementation once a vote has been won,  think CIP's (clam improvement protocol) which could be hosted on the nochowerderforyou git repo.

Looking great. Thanks for all the work put into this. Not sure about the 10,000 block time frame though, it doesn't seem like enough time for a real vote to occur. Is the Clamour name a take on the word clamor?

Yes, that's about the gist of it. It provides evidence that the network is willing to accept a change to the CLAM protocol. The changes have to manually be made, but it is no longer up to the developers to prove that CLAM users want a change. In short, it protects users from tyranny and developers from blame. Cheesy

curious, has anyone approached you about negotiating a lump buyout of your remaining Clams? I'd guess you have about 200,000 based on that sell order that was at .0045 on Poloniex. Perhaps a coalition of JD investors/gamblers would be interested in getting a lot at a fixed price.

Yes, I'm open to it. So far only 2 people have PMd me with OTC offers and I have made deals with both of them.

can u tell around how much u got left so can see how much btc need to buy all?
