From which date was the data dump? I only have one btc private key from a multibit wallet that held different amounts of btc in the recent past, but unfortunately importing it to the CLAM wallet didnt yield any CLAM, so I guess the data dump was made before I received btc on this address

How did you do this?

first make sure you understand that you shouldnt be exposing a private key to a address that still hold coins, so understand it and dtake the appropriate measures.

on multibit go tools -> export private keys

select "do not password protect" so you can read the keys in plaintext, then export it to a file, read the file in a text editor and copy the private key(s)

on CLAM go to help -> debug window -> console
importprivkey x  (where x is the private key you are importing)
restart clam and launch the wallet with the -salvagewallet argument

I will say this for the devs.

They have not removed negative comments from the thread.

They have replied to people's concerns and tried their best to answer them.  They have done this in a mature and measured way which scam coins, if they are one, very rarely do.

I am not involved with them and will not be installing clam.

But I offer my respect for their endeavours - even if I think they are little misplaced - and the effort they have put in to both create clam in the first place and to resolve the questions that have been asked.

I have a growing feeling that their intentions may be honourable - but the complexity of installation, the uniqueness of the coin distribution and the cloud of unknowing that surrounds it all is putting a lot of people off.

Good luck.

>they need your private keys to give you the clams

but you can remove your btc and etc to another wallet before using your private key (of a now empty wallet) to get your clams, clams were awareded based on a previous data of the blockchain, its a not a thing that will be done on runtime

>And they tell you to put your entire wallet.dat folder into their program

that's not true, you didnt understand the original post at all, granted its a complicated idea indeed at first glance.

This distribution doesn't make sense at all, why would they need your private keys to give you the clams  Roll Eyes

And they tell you to put your entire wallet.dat folder into their program, it probably uploads the data to their servers.

This has gotta be a way to steal wallets, hope no one falls for it. Also the self moderated aspect of the thread has me really suspicious.

I only really use my Android wallet so I can't get these Sad

I'll sell you my Clam for a good price in LTC?

Doge maybe but LTC  Cheesy
That would cost at least 100000 doggies for each!

Did you run -salvagewallet during the first load? Otherwise your wallet.dat will hold tx information for invalid tx's, thus the "too high" and "negative" errors i suspect.
Yes...  There are still tons of exceptions in the debug.log with -salvagewallet.

Code:
Renamed wallet.dat to wallet.1401006085.bak
Salvage(aggressive) found 1210 records

:
ERROR: CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : txout.nValue too high
ERROR: CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : txout.nValue negative
WARNING: CWalletDB::Recover skipping key:

Heh, so if it is txout based (how CLAMs were given), and the dev's didn't try to give themselves a huge advantage, then the luckiest clam holders are probably p2pool miners that never merge their coins into single txouts.

Some major analysis on the CLAM chain and the prior imports is needed I think.  Should be very interesting.

This is mindblowing, in a good way I think.

Thanks!  Grin Grin



In other news!

The kHashier.com pool is trucking along nicely, but it sure could use some more hash!

With the great folks at AGX.io listing us, and talks with other exchanges looking positive, it looks like we will soon have a moving market for CLAMS!

Once the market finds a value, the pool will start purchasing and distributing CLAMS!

why he bother to do that complicated way?what he just have to do was just send himself a tons of clams to his own clams' wallet.
That's a good point, he could just skip the sending one doge coin to each address step.

^ This is true.  That is one of the wonderful things about the block chain: it is public record and available to every single Client/User.

How do we know the dev didn't create 100 wallets with 100 addresses and send one doge coin to each address? That would give him 45 thousand clams.

I have 30,000 BTC addresses that I've used for my private mixing solution... I wonder if it's worth importing them.

Probably not, unless you steal people's money and keep the outputs.

Fin.

P.S. What did we do to make you so angry that we deserved all the effort it took to create a new account just to Troll our thread?
