CLAM is like a micheal jordan rookie card. everyone wants one and they are drying up fast. 3000 clam dumped 2 hours a go. didnt affect price at all


well. went -0.0054 to 0.005. but went back to 0.0054 in 10min.




polo used to have 8000-9000 clam in sell. now it never more than 4000




i love clam and know its going to up. fun to make money on altcoin again.


ride the wave. ups n downs like clockwork

Those CLAMs may still be on Poloniex just not on the orderbooks, I bet they show back up when the prices rises a bit. I think 0.005 is a nice floor until next week.

But what would happen if just-dice closes or accept BTC?

Can the blockchain be copied over from the Windows client, or must it be completely downloaded again?

I've honestly never tired... but I would suspect yes.  I'll try myself later this evening

I've just installed the new CLAM Wallet on MacOSX Yosemite.  I loaded the application and it started to download the blockchain.  I closed the client and then I was able to copy across the blockchain and wallet from my Windows machine.  Files were copied from Windows (%appdata%\Clam) to MacOSX (~/Library/Application Support/Clam).  I restarted the client after the copy was complete and the blockchain and wallet were available and in sync.

The only thing I had to change in the new client was to stop using the black visual theme (under Options => Display) so that I could see the mouseover text for the locked/encrypted, staking, network connections, up to date icons (in the bottom left of the window).  When using the black visual theme, the transparency was hard to read.  I tried it against my dark wallpaper/background and against a light background but it didn't really make a difference.  I do like the black theme but I can't use it atm.

Looking for testers for the new osx client. 

Its been running on our developers system for over a week with no issues but we'd like a sanity check before we go ahead and release it officially.

I am making a new bootstrap.dat and then realized that some might ONLY want it to come from dooglus.

If anyone is interested I can edit the post with a URL and sign the message and add sha-1 and md5 hashes.  It is through block 285,000.

I agree the client and the coin seem strong but if just-dice is accepting bitcoins too the price of CLAM should go down.

just-dice is not accepting bitcoins... only CLAM

 "If just-dice starts accepting bitcoins..."


I agree the client and the coin seem strong but if just-dice is accepting bitcoins too the price of CLAM should go down.

I think there's only half a million of these floating around, many of them not for sale, so price is unlikely to go down.  Get them while you can.

Half a million of them have been dug but half a million of them will be created every year just by stacking plus probably tens of thousands of new CLAM will be dug in the next 12 months

A: JD doesn't and won't accept BTC (as per doogs posts)  CLAM showed love to every BTC address, so that base is covered.

B: A half Million haven't been dug.

10:20:04 INFO: 60,143 of 3,208,032 sets of 4.60545574 CLAM were dug up so far from the initial distribution
10:20:04 INFO: 276,986 CLAM were dug up and 182,966 CLAM were staked for a total of 459,952 CLAM
10:20:04 INFO: Just-Dice's bankroll of 290,574 CLAM represents 63.17% of that amount
10:20:04 INFO: if all the distributed CLAMs were dug up, the total money supply would be 14,957,367 CLAM

The investors at JD had 50k BTC when BTC was at $1000... I don't think too many are going to be rushing to sell their 1 staked a day to keep the 1 light bulb in their mud hut on Cheesy

I would def say that the Buyers out weigh the Sellers.

Yes. My concerns are about the fact it hasn't been widely used for a long time so there might be some weaknesses not yet found and that the coin is very linked to just-dice.


I'm not sure what any of what you said means really.

Clam is nearing 8 months old and while its true its now more widely used because of the exposure from JD we have in the past fixed any problems quickly and are constantly trying to better the codebase for Proof Of Stake. If you have any specific issues we'd be more then happy to take a look at them otherwise what your saying is meaningless.

I know of literally no software that doesn't fit what you've suggested regardless of use. I think the ability to adapt to the situations that present themselves and mitigate issues as they happen is the key in the ever changing world of software development.

And being linked to JD is certainly only temporary, it has after all only been reopened for just over a month. Bitcoin itself when it was in its growing years was tied to gambling when it comes to exposure. Think Satoshi-dice and also Just-dice when it used bitcoin which at points held ungodly amounts of bitcoin on its servers.

With exposure comes more people invested into the ecosystem which means more services and a more balanced network.

This coin is doing better than I expected, and works very well as far as I've used it.  Congrats.

I second this. This whole proof of stake thing is something really great. Amongst other things

Has anyone been able to import keys from electrum? I've been searching through this thread and seen quite a few other people asking but i haven't seen anyone that has said they've done it yet.

I dumped my keys from electrum using dumpprivkeys. But clam-qt can't import any of these keys. When I use the command "importprivkey [key]" where [key] is one of the keys exported it just gives the error "Invalid private key (code -5)"

Your using an old version of the client. Make sure the version reported back it  1.3.4.1. That error was fixed in the most recent release.  

Also, to save time importing I suggest doing it like so

importprivkey privkey "label" false     

until you get to the last key then do

importprivkey privkey "label" true


otherwise it will do a rescan on ever key import and take a while for you to do. You will not see any clams until you import your last key with 'true'   but its a good plan.

Learning the troll avoidance button :)
another shitcoin? Undecided

A coin with an interesting distribution and the only coin accepted on just-dice.

Pretty much in other words a coin that people likely have some of if they are old to have an address with balance on the date of distribution and a coin you can play around with with ease.
