Everybody want CLAMs to invest in Just-Dice. Price can only go up

Error: RPC server was not started, use server=1 to change this. (code -18)

how can I start the RPC server?

you have to add server=1 in your .conf file located in appdata(windows).

Only 31votes for CLAMS on https://www.cryptsy.com/coinvotes?

You don't want CLAMS on Cryptsy they stake your coins and make it almost impossible to withdraw anything but tiny amounts. I stopped trading there because of this very issue. Once bitten ...never twice

Jon  Wink

It will increase liquidity and demand

Thanks.

How many addresses have not been digged up?
How BTC the address needed to have on May 14th 2014 not be considered a "dust address"?

Total supply of distributed CLAMs is 14,897,662
Only 224,553 were in circulation as of Nov 27, 2014
So you can do the math, that's alot of unclaimed CLAMs.

"Dust" Amounts:
DOGE:  0.01
LTC:    0.00001
BTC:    0.00001

Ok it is a lot of unclaimed coins. How many coins have been claimed on just-dice so far dooglus?

http://coinmarketcap.com/#BTC doesn't list CLAM well because they don't have the market cap in BTC.
It should be number of coins in circulation * market price = 300,000 (estimation of the number of coins in circulation Today) * 0.0054= 1620 BTC

I just downloaded and synced clam wallet then imported bitcoin wallet.dat file. Then did the same for litecoin and dogecoin wallet.dat files.
Balance is still zero clams.

Is there any other step I have to do or simply those addresses were empty on May 2014 (can't remember for sure)?

Thx for the link: I used file/importwallet command of clam client (so with clamclient opened and running) without copy/pasting the file from bitcoin/litecoin/dogecoin folder and restarting the client. Is it the same thing?

There are no more steps.

Pick an address, and look at https://blockchain.info/charts/balance?format=csv&address=ADDRESS to verify the balance on 12th May 2014.

You can actually see if the addresses were empty: look in the block explorer for the dates. This makes it much faster/easier to follow.

If anyone reads this that has the knowledge of how all of this actually works, please correct me if I'm wrong:

The coins in the initial distribution were sent to public addresses, accessible to the private keys. So what this means is that it doesn't matter if you claim them now or a year from now, they will still be accessible (basically, we have the coins already, we just haven't imported our address yet -- so it's like cold storage), correct?

Exactly.

Except it's not like cold storage if your BTC (or whatever) wallet is online - because anyone stealing your BTC keys also gets your CLAM.

Notice that the distribution method has a funny side effect for the (very few) people who used the same private key on all three coins: they get three sets of 4.6 CLAM at their address.

For example:

All four of these addresses have the same private key. I don't know what it is, but it's the same:

   BTC: http://blockchain.info/address/1s9VR8ofhyTrTfRKTReckvUwQWmsBVjU4
  DOGE: http://dogechain.info/address/D61F2g5Sy7skPTr243RDAX65pYF5GFrYm6
   LTC: http://block-explorer.com/address/LL66kdSdkNDX7GMaVbQwtmzF9ct3zUy3Hf
  CLAM: http://khashier.com/address/x9AnPHyGwRTVtqmHfw4K3wDGAWp1FwDoTv

All three of BTC, DOGE, and LTC were funded on 12th May 2014 (the snapshot date) and so the CLAM address got 3 sets of 4.6 CLAMs.

Edit: I was wondering why anyone would use the same private key for three different coins. My best guess is that it's a "brain wallet" and the private key is the sha256 hash of a passphrase or something.

Very interesting! And thanks for the clarification, Smiley.

Now I just need to get things organized/cleaned up so I can deal with claiming CLAMs!

To clarify, can I send the coins to another address in my wallet? Would that be safe? Since I won't be digging up the private key for that address. Right?

There are two cases:

* If you plan to import the wallet.dat into the CLAM client, you should move your coins to a new WALLET first. The wallet.dat you import includes the next 100 addresses that wallet will generate, so when you think you're making a new address, you really aren't.

* If you plan to import just individual private keys into JD's /dig command, then there's no need to make a new wallet, just more the coins to a different ADDRESS.
The second option is what I did. Thank you for your help. I dug up ~18 clams. Cheesy
