Against all odds I believe I have proof of a private key collision!

It all started when 25 CLAMs just up and left my wallet without my permission.

The transaction is shown here.

Notice that my 25 clams left my address of xWAS3PbHr3FBdLsV1s8UYKuwXaJWMsTcjw and ended up at the new address of x8f8YKkNJk6mU92ZmerhWqwqqvZKnTaZ9Y where, at the time of this post, they sit.

The source address is valid and is mine:


The new address is valid and is not mine:


Digging into the source address we find that it was originally funded in the airdrop:


This means that the CLAM private key is either a BTC, LTC, or DOGE private key.

FACTS:  I have never owned LTC or DOGE and I only imported BTC private keys into my CLAM client.  The three possible source addresses for the airdrop are:


Remember, I only imported BTC private keys.  Therefore the only key that could have been mine is the private key for the Bitcoin address of 1Nro9WkpaKm9axmcfPVp79dAJU1Gx7VmMZ

Taking a closer look at that address you will see that the first transaction made on that address was on 2015-06-29 20:35:06.  Therefore this could not have been the address used to claim the CLAMS.  Also, I do not recognize this address as one of mine and my first CLAM transaction was on 4/19/2017 so I could not have moved the claimed CLAMs off the address on 2015-01-21 19:42:08!

My conclusion is that this address is an address that was generated by my wallet that collided with all this past activity.

The person that owned the DOGE address DSztgmhTsjfS7xxDPyVNeunmBbjaJMfz92 is the person that claimed the CLAMs and them moved them on 2015-01-21 19:42:08.

My client appears to have generated the same private key!

I expect this person noticed 25 CLAMS magically appear in their wallet and then moved them to another address.

I must have incredible luck - which I hope will someday translates into a win in the lottery

If you owned the DOGE address DSztgmhTsjfS7xxDPyVNeunmBbjaJMfz92, used it to claim CLAMs back in 2015, saw 25 CLAM magically appear in your wallet 2017-10-26 13:35:44, moved them 2017-10-31 14:16:16, and are feeling honest or guilty about it let's talk.

I would love another explanation.  Right now I am out 25 CLAMs.

do token holders receive percentage of the platform’s income?

Nah, you just sound like you dont know what you are talking about. The coin is at $3.41 right now, if you did bother look at the coin price history. That's not low.


Even if it is low as you are saying,  a bright guy will buy not sell. Who sells when the price is low!!??

I don't know the GUI client very well, but there's some way to open a debug console. It's on the 'help' menu.

Once you find it, type: importprivkey, then a space, then your private key, and hit return. It will rescan the blockchain, taking maybe 10 minutes.

You don't need to do that to generate an address. The CLAM client can generate its own addresses. Just check the 'receive' tab, or whatever it's called.

Yes, and it would avoid frustrating people who believe they can claim but they cannot. By the way, I happened to own several Bitcoins in that period, but I didn't manage to claim my CLAMS

Same here. I wanted invest in your project, but now coin really low so I better get rid of it... That's too bad

Somehow it's sad that this coin is traded on stock exchanges. I bought it, now I'm sorry. Well, that's a small amount.

How do you know?

update coming this week

CLAM PUMP!

New CLAM poll: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.21809848

You could just withdraw to an exchange address?

Can someone please help me I am new to clams. I won quite a bit on just-dice.com I went to clamaddress to get an address and private key which is what I used to do with bitcoin and I then import the private key, but when i downloaded the wallet the only option for importing is a wallet.dat file. Can I dump my private key in the wallet and recover my funds? Please help. Thanks

Dooglus, I propose to increase the house edge of the Just-Dice.com to 1.3%. And 0.2% goes to a jackpot. What do you think?  

Thanks. It's working now, catching up on the blocks it missed.

I do.

Last transaction to address 2017-10-26. Not synced?

Please look into. Thank you.

Thanks. I posted a comment there asking them to remove that.

I didn't hear about CLAM until after it had launched.

the news its always great, but price is not up. I think in spring will be time for clam

That statement was correct and true when originally made. Now a date is in order 

Dead and buried - that was a great movie, don't make em like that anymore.

It seems some people have dumped their monies on Clam without any due diligence or plan to trade .. sorry no sympathy.
Crypto moves and you can't be bleating about dead coins and ahhh where is my money two weeks after a correction.

A correction I might add, some of us were considering and planning for. 

Go draw a couple of lines on trading view, any layman would tell something was about to happen 2 weeks ago
Especially if you look at the long term history.

Any of us who average in and out with the market and bother to do some reading around are ignoring you and
setting up trading plans.

For better or worse, right or wrong, but we are not crying over our choices.

For what its worth my trading view lines suggest something is about to happen again probably before the 29th
Are we reaching a resistance line? ( go have a look) make a choice, with some evidence, be happy with that choice.

I'll do my best to call it right .... good luck to everyone else who is trying to do the same.


Ogh and happy staking

I sit here and watch
