Thanks for the answer. I already did that and they were funded at 2014-may-12. Although, there are 7 addresses in the wallet, 5 of them have clams. May that be issue?

That really shouldn't be a problem. We expect to find multiple funded addresses per wallet.

You could try using the console in the CLAM client and importing the private keys one by one, although that isn't ideal since you'll potentially miss some funded "change" addresses:

Run the LTC client, go to the console, run "dumpprivkey ADDR" for a funded address. Copy the result.
Run the CLAM client, go to the console, run "importprivkey KEY import false" where KEY is the thing you copied in the previous step.
Repeat for each address. On the last one, write "true" instead of "false" to let it rescan the blockchain. That will take 5 or 10 minutes and will probably make the wallet appear to hang while it runs, but you'll see your 4.6 CLAMs start appearing pretty quickly.

updated client to .16

tested it now and it works  Grin importing privkey form litecoin works, like Dooglus said, with option import true on seems like client hangs but afetr 1 minutes you seen the coins appear and it is staking !

wallet sync very slow. is it normal? 7 weeks behind block 519559. With all the nodes someone posted 2 pages ago.
It synced from 10 weeks to 7 in three days!

The newest release (https://github.com/nochowderforyou/clams/releases) doesn't need a node list - it is able to find the best nodes for itself.

And the bootstrap.dat file (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9772191) will help you get synced quicker.

Edit: give me 5 minutes and I'll upload a new bootstrap.dat file which goes up to block 592000.

Yes one of the main utility of CLAM is due to the utility that just-dice offers. They're a enticing destination for some gamblers.

Also CLAM can be used to invest in this site's bankroll. This offers quite a decent rate of interest that you probably won't see anywhere else.

People can now use CLAMspeech to put messages on my website, https://mathgate.info. I'm scanning blocks as they come in to look for transactions sending clams to xMGxkY1RLX69eDrEJCPTEhhSxChraZYjrV. The CLAMspeech part of those transactions are displayed on the pages of the website. More details are here: https://mathgate.info/clamspeech.php

I'd consider it experimental at the moment. When I feel more confident in its stability, I'll make a different thread about it. In the meantime, comments are appreciated. Well, if your comment is that my website looks like it's from 1999, then I've already been told that.  Smiley I'm more interested in comments about this potential use of CLAMspeech. Even better would be if some of you would try to use it! I initialized the 8 message slots yesterday using a small amount of clams.

That's an interesting application for CLAMspeech. It's a transparent way of selling advertising, since the payment and the request are both burned into the blockchain for all to see and verify. Nice work!

I was confused at first why some URLs have a grey background and some don't. It turns out your style for visited links is to use a white background so they don't look different than regular text any more - ie. links only look like links until you click them - then they look like regular text.

Thanks for the feedback and getting the top spot! I modified the css so that links still have a grey background after being visited. I agree it was potentially confusing before.

Clam Client is 100% synced and on both OSX and Linux no luck importing a litecoin wallet.dat into the clamclient. Anyone ever succeeded doing this? Please help...

I never tried, because I know I didn't have any LTC on the date of the snapshot. I do know that people have been able to claim CLAMs from the initial distribution from LTC they held, but I don't know who or how.

Could it be that none of the addresses in the wallet you are importing were funded on the date of the snapshot?

If there's a specific address that you are sure was funded when LTC block 565693 was mined (2014-May-12 13:06:31) you can check it using the Chat tab on Just-Dice.com. Type "/dig ADDR" without the quotes. Replace ADDR with your LTC address. It will tell you whether the address was actually funded on the date of the snapshot.

hey everyone, ive been away for a bit, how does the reward system work nowadays?

Staking? It hasn't changed for quite a while now.

The network adjusts the difficulty in an attempt to get 1 block staked per minute. That's 1440 per day. Each block awards the staker with 1 new CLAM, plus any transaction fees from the transactions they included in the block.

There are something like 650k CLAMs chasing those 1440 blocks per day, meaning there's 450 CLAMs per block per day. So each 450 CLAMs in your wallet can expect to stake about one CLAM per day. With a lot of variance, and quite a wide margin of error.

That's roughly 0.2% per day.

My working:

# blocks per day
>>> 60 * 24
1440

# CLAMs per block per day
>>> 650e3 / 1440
451.3888888888889

# percentage inflation
>>> 100.0 / 450
0.2222222222222222

I am trying to import a litecoin wallet.dat but get this error:

Error: The wallet passphrase entered was incorrect for the wallet you are attempting to import. (code -14)

passphrase of litecoin wallet is correct. I run the client 1.4.13 on ubuntu 14.04 64bit

Still 31 weeks to sync , even with bootstrap.dat from OP in ./clam folder

I tried several times to import the litecoin wallet.dat , also with commandline and suddenly I see I have hundreds of clam-walletaddresses  Shocked
[img]

So that means you were able to get it fixed?

No, I think I have to wait until client is 100% synched

Increase of price is due of Just-dice and investing plan in their wallet or any thing else ?
This coin hasn't any new idea for reaching to 0.01 BTC ..........

Hopefully this analysis provided by navaman in the Just-Dice trollbox should make everything clear for you:

09:50:11 (1092997) OK, here is my analysis of the clam chart: http://prntscr.com/81ky28:
