reading 2-3 pages back, really gets me want to know more and more...
ok... current situation is I haven't downloaded the client & don't have any clams yet
but by checking on khash, I know I can claim some clams based on my btc address

now I have some questions on staking,
If I have 3 unspents (say 1,1,2) on a single address and all are old enough to stake
so if one of them stakes (using original client)... then it will combine the 3 into 1 output of 4.1 Clams? which will mature in 510 blocks
hence instead of having 2 more chance for staking, Im left with 1 locked unspent. Is this correct?
and it is fixed 0.1 Clams stake reward unless hit the lottery for up to 1000 Clams.
and what is the minimum amount of each unspent to be eligible for staking?

Would be better if CLAM get listed on much bigger exchange to increase volume and investors interest.

It is interesting times for CLAMs. While there's a need to expand the exchanges perhaps for security, price and stability there's also the need to raise awareness so more people dig up their unclaimed CLAMs - without these undiscovered coins, volumes are going to be low.

I'm doing my bit to raise awareness where I can and I suggest everyone does the same. Any and all sizes of exchanges added will have a positive beneficial effect I feel.

Just a notice to everyone!

Expect the kHashier.com multi-pool to go offline for a moment later this evening, possibly quite soon.

x11 is being added.

It is expected to come back up (and stay up) quite quickly - but we all know how updates go.

Unfortunately, it is late and finishing up the addition of x11 is going to have to wait until tomorrow.
Apologies for the false alarm.

I hope you are ready to constantly add new coins. With all the fpga X11 hash out there, it is only profitable to mine X11 coins right when they launch before the difficulty skyrockets.

So one of the most expensive pearl in the world found in Clam. Interesting facts about pearl.  Smiley

Guys, I am a little worried that if we do not get listed on more exchanges, Clams will follow the same fate as Huntercoin.

+1

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. A coin that I took over is listed on only one exchange, and was recently disabled by that exchange for nearly 7 weeks. Being off the air for that long basically killed the value.

Clams?

Proof of Pearl?

Any plans to offer this change for a future version? I'm familiar with *coind source in general, but I'm not yet comfortable with the inner workings of creating transactions (as evidenced by my above failure.)

Oh, it was pretty trivial.

Edit src/wallet.cpp and change:

int64_t nStakeCombineThreshold = 1000 * COIN;

to

int64_t nStakeCombineThreshold = 0 * COIN;


thanks for sharing this dooglus, if i ever i hit a big lotto block im sure to use this, as for now, my amount of clams is still manageble with having multiple addresses approach

While they are completely different in basically every aspect, the one thing in common is they both are only listed on poloniex (Huntercoin is on more exchanges now, but only after the price completely bottomed out). We should petition more exchanges(Bittrex, Mintpal, C-cex, Cryptsy) and get them to list Clams.

ok so make more addys in my wallet and send X number of coins to each for best staking? I only have 15 so any thing that gives me a slightly higher chance of a lotto block would be worth doing.

The client is open source. I changed my copy to stop it combining outputs when they stake. The default behaviour is to combine all the outputs at the address that is staking into a single large output (up to 1000 CLAMs), thereby destroying the age of all those outputs for no benefit.

That may have made sense when the reward for staking was proportional to the amount being staked, but now that staking rewards are independent of the amount being staked it makes no sense at all the combine your outputs.

edit: even a change in algorithm which prefers newer outputs when creating a transaction would probably help the network, in the long run.

if i have my info right, devs are updating wallet to improve further the algorithm for auto combining and splitting the coins to maximize staking efficiency as well as having the option to manually control how coins will split/combine

The concept of proof of chain and proof of pearl is intresting.will notice!

If so, I guess creating raw transactions are the only solution... but the potential for mistakes - such as forgetting the change address and giving the remnant balance as a fee to the next person who mines a block - seems high with this one.

That's what I do:

cc sendrawtransaction $(cc signrawtransaction $(cc createrawtransaction '[{"txid":"5c4a0eee3cce1c82b460df0b527570f00ce5f02f5378d88c8ec56cae0ee713a9","vout":1},{"txid":"5c4a0eee3cce1c82b460df0b527570f00ce5f02f5378d88c8ec56cae0ee713a9","vout":2}]' '{"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":5,"x9S2gMQQ5iKrP9SwRJ6PF9Q3wqDxRegc2w":2.13990000}') | grep hex | cut -d'"' -f4)
