Tell us what you really think.

So you announce, on the first page that "clam speech" is some fucking huge thing haha,

https://github.com/nochowderforyou/clams/blob/master/src/clamspeech.cpp

This is just retarded.

Yep, that's our address.

I wonder if he could sign a message that states their CLAM address with their public BTC donation address.

That would be much more convincing than 'some guy calling themselves "SeansOutpost" on JD chat said it'.

So far two Charities now accept CLAM. I personally believe that both of these are OP worthy!  

______________________________

The widely known SeansOutpost now has a CLAM address that we can all donate to.

(Seans will not be able to add the address publicly until they all vote it at a board meeting. Adding it to the OP will be one of the only ways ppl can find it.)

Nice.

My other problem is that I don't see a way of verifying my dice rolls without doing a lot of work.

Do you really change two seeds every roll? And if so, do I have to make a note of the hash and change my client seed before every single roll to make sure the game is fair? That doesn't seem like something anyone is going to bother with.

Take a look at how Just-Dice does it - players only need to make a note of a single server seed hash because the same server seed is used for every roll until they ask for it to be changed. Using a similar scheme on your site would make it practical for players to really check out the game's provable fairness.

I wrote some python code to simulate what might happen with different coinage possibilities.

https://privatepaste.com/ae9dfdbb6c

It starts with 69917 txs staking, 75% of which are "JD" and are distributed with values based on the stats published by dooglus a couple of days ago. The remaining 25% are "Not JD" and have a similar distribution of value. It starts assuming the block count is 69917 and every tx is marked with which block it appeared, chosen at random.

The code is slow. I ran it with 5 different coin age algorithms for 1500 "ticks" of a clock. This takes about 5 minutes but it corresponds to what would be a few hours of really staking. I'll give the results below, but they really should be run for much longer to get more reliable numbers. So far it doesn't seem like there is any difference between the algorithms. In every case JD stakes about 80% and there in about 4% of cases Not JD could have staked but got orphaned.

Each coinage function assumes coins mature after 510 blocks. After that the age is either (1) constant [like clams is now], (2) depends on the log of age (i.e., how many blocks old it is), (3) depends on the square root of the age, (4) depends linearly on the age, (5) depends on the square of the age.

(1) Constant, like now:

clamsim.sim(1500,clamsim.coinage_const_mature510)

Total blocks: 270
JD would stake: 218 -- 80.7407407407%
Not JD would stake: 52 -- 19.2592592593%
Not JD would get orphaned: 13 -- 4.81481481481%

(2) Log age:

clamsim.sim(1500,clamsim.coinage_log_mature510)

Total blocks: 368
JD would stake: 295 -- 80.1630434783%
Not JD would stake: 73 -- 19.8369565217%
Not JD would get orphaned: 13 -- 3.53260869565%

(3) Square root of age:

clamsim.sim(1500,clamsim.coinage_sqrt_mature510)

Total blocks: 389
JD would stake: 310 -- 79.6915167095%
Not JD would stake: 79 -- 20.3084832905%
Not JD would get orphaned: 13 -- 3.34190231362%

(4) Linear:

clamsim.sim(1500,clamsim.coinage_linear_mature510)

Total blocks: 732
JD would stake: 594 -- 81.1475409836%
Not JD would stake: 138 -- 18.8524590164%
Not JD would get orphaned: 31 -- 4.2349726776%

(5) Square of age:

clamsim.sim(1500,clamsim.coinage_square_mature510)

Total blocks: 779
JD would stake: 633 -- 81.2580231065%
Not JD would stake: 146 -- 18.7419768935%
Not JD would get orphaned: 33 -- 4.23620025674%

If someone wants, I'll run one or two of these (or some other coinage algorithm) overnight to get better numbers.

ForttuuneJack loooks cool. 

Hi,

There was a minor problem, it is solved now.

I just tried it. I was able to make an account, and found the dice game.

When I clicked on 'my bets', I got a spinning circle of dots that never stopped spinning:



When I hit reload I got this:



I guess they're having some problems at the moment.

Announcement and link concerning FortuneJack added to the OP post.

The service appears to be legitimate and have a history/user base.

We rely on user reviews of services to verify addition to the OP post, and look forward to hearing about your experiences.

this is very good news.

Not only they accept CLAM, but they also launched Coin Swap service, that means you can trade CLAM for other coins.

damn.. i'm outta the loop then

More people will hear about CLAM and the velocity of clam may increase with this new option to use clam but you can play at fortunejack with bitcoin so if you never used clam you will not use it to play fortunejack

Great, one more good website is accepting CLAM.

This will certainly attract more people to start using CLAM and make this coin even stronger. 

Other dice sites already had this option that lower the risk of losing all your coins in case of the site disappearing.

wow that's really a good news for clams.

I 'm a long time player at FortuneJack and never had issues with them.  I only used BTC there  until now and can definitely state doposits and withdraw works regularly and quickly at FJ.
My opinion, for what it matters, on them is they are reliable ( they also pay regularly and in time for their signature campaign I'm joining at trhe moment).

good job CLAM

New service to add to the OP please:

https://fortunejack.com/

They now accept CLAM.

(I have not made a deposit/withdraw yet, but plan to do so after Christmas.)

They are a Bitcoin Foundation member and the website is fully licensed by Law of Saint Kitts and Nevis, owned and operated by the "Nexus Group Enterprises", LLC.

This is absolutely brilliant and revolutionary. Margin investment on gambling dice? holy shit. Doog, I greatly hope you go through with this implementation
