If you put your CLAMs in the Just-Dice bankroll you get a share of the staking rewards. The site wallet has staked 3544 blocks since it started holding CLAMs less than a week ago.

So you're basically running a CLAMs staking pool?  Cool

Okay, I'm not buying Just Dice as the reason for the CLAM price growth. Who even uses that site? The main CLAM site is a random Wordpress theme with pictures that don't even match the branding of the coin (looks to just be the default theme pics).

Welcome to the CLAM thread.



The CLAM website isn't run on WordPress.... it is run on Ghost.
We are volunteers; if you believe you can create a better website, we more than welcome your contribution.



I don't personally pretend to have a crystal-ball that can predict nor explain markets.
However, the answer to: "Who even uses that site?" is likely a rather long answer.
Just-Dice has a long history of large bank-rolls and met obligations.



More detail than the above, will likely have to be discovered and researched by yourself.

From a new comer to the crypto community I'd suggest it is simplified a lot from what it currently is.

It currently makes it extremely difficult to access information and the navigation method is nonsensical.

I realize it is run by volunteers but even a simple HTML page would do a better job.

IMHO these ALTS have already cost the community enough in terms of diverting time and resources from Bitcoin.

Can't wait for the Sidechains to make all this foolishness go away.

Why would the sidechain make it go away?

CLAM actually has a use now because you can play or invest in just-dice. Most people that were involved in Bitcoin in May have some. But the price will likely fall back to 0.001 because there are millions of CLAM that will arrive to the market and will be exchange for valuable bitcoins.

Wait until we find out Dooglus was the reason Bitcoin has value... and everyone was buying them to play on JD, :p. And then CLAM passes Bitcoin in value.

LOL

I've actually thought about that a fair bit because the JD early days was like a rocket for BTC and you could TOTALLY see the BTC flowing in from the market after they got eaten up.  I mean seriously, the JD bank roll was a great futures indicator for price ect.

There was a number of large VC's, Pool owners, Market owners, Homeless people, People who feed homeless and the list goes on.... all types of folks in that room. 

Look at CLAM. It got up to 0.01 BTC and then somewhat tanked to 0.004, but it's already climbing back up again. I have the feeling they're not going to tank again because: a) people are investing instead of dumping and b) people are buying them to gamble with. This means there's buy pressure and a lowering amount of sell pressure. I really wouldn't be surprised if we got to 0.02-0.03 BTC each and held stable.

Forgot to mention this earlier, but we got a Coins Source Article Grin



http://www.coinssource.com/just-dice-re-opens-after-regulations-now-accepting-clams/

Show some love and spread it far and wide, fellow CLAMs Grin

So we can incubate our clams there and earn from staking?   Smiley

Check the balance of CLAM address [xJDCLAMZ] (if you can - I don't know of a good way, but would like to)

It currently has 137,935 CLAMs.

The Just-Dice wallet currently shows:

$ clamd getstakinginfo | grep -e weight -e expect
    "weight" : 125057.90652447,
    "netstakeweight" : 169232.88858409,
    "expectedtime" : 99

ie. it has 125k of the total network weight of 169k.

If you put your CLAMs in the Just-Dice bankroll you get a share of the staking rewards. The site wallet has staked 3544 blocks since it started holding CLAMs less than a week ago.

Maybe you need to revise your purchasing decision.

   That had to be a joke.  I chuckled, so yea, it had to be a joke.   Smiley

Dooglus, Your to serious.  That didn't require an answer.  People won't learn a thing if you spoon feed them.  Let 'em work....

I remember this coin has a raffle aspect. What are the parameters of this? Thanks!

You are referring to the CLAMlottery.

It is no longer underway, the reward per block is a static 1 CLAM per block now.
Which, given current difficulty works out to something like 1% per day if you are efficient.

hi i just upgrade wallet last version, take 16 conections but keep unsynck and normal sincronizing bar not appear, but i can see my 7 clams coins in wallet

is running good?


--solved : i download bootstrap.dat restart wallet and start to sync normally

I did the same but syncs very slowly. This happen for anyone else? Been a few hours and im at almost 50% only. I have 100mbps internet connection on a fast desktop.

If you use the bootstrap.dat file, it doesn't need to sync since all the blocks are in the file. Are you sure you used the bootstrap.dat file? You need to put it in your CLAM data folder - the same place as your CLAM wallet.dat, then restart the client.

Realized I placed it in the wrong folder duh lol I fixed it and took about 30 minutes more and I am finally all syncs dumb mistake for me

The challenge for every POS coin is getting people to use/buy&sell the coin rather than just hoarding it in a wallet. With a 1% house edge JD allows quite a bit of fluidity - some people will cash out coins, others will buy to play - it's win-win.

One of the major "risks" with CLAM would be that nobody digs them up and a limited supply could dry up. We NEED lots of CLAMs to be dug up for the long-term future of the coin. Even if that means temporary dips in the market price Wink

I agree with you that there needs to be more clams dug up. Maybe changing it to award 2-3 people 1 clam every minute or let it scale to something like difficulty. THere should never be a machine though thats able to generate clams like sha256 or other altcoin algorithms. Unique coins like POS is what the altcoin industry needs since everything else is just copies

I don't think changing the award would be a good idea. The coin just needs to be more used, the current price makes it likely that a lot more clams will be dug up.
