Peter Todd) pointed out that you could be tricked into signing something that was actually a transaction hash.HeySteve: yes, that was my worry. I signed a series of 32 character altcoin addresses using my Bitcoin addressesgmaxwell: Yea, we’re looking out for you. 🙂A Note on Privacy ConcernsIf you follow the above procedure, the Byteball developer and anyone he shares the information with(willingly or otherwise) will be able to associate your IP address with all Bitcoin addresses for which you signed. Further, it would be possible for other addresses you own to become associated with your linked addresses.You may mitigate these issues immediately after the drop occurs by anonymizing your bitcoins.Method #2 – CLAMs OfferClams / Clamcoin (CLAM) is a Proof of Stake cryptocurrency launched in May of 2014. By the process known as “digging,” CLAMs are freely distributed to historical owners of Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dogecoin. All addresses of significant value, created prior to the 12th of May 2014, are eligible for digging.In other words, you can only claim free CLAMs if:you have a BTC, LTC, or DOGE wallet (backup) from May 2014 or earlier, andThe address contained value(s) above “dust,” or the standard transaction fee at the time.You will receive 4.6 CLAM for each suitable address! As the value of Clams has ranged between $5 and $7 of late, this can add up to a considerable windfall! Unfortunately, it’s difficult to calculate your expected CLAM reward beforehand. However, if you were an active Bitcoin user in mid-2014 and are familiar with wallet management procedures, then digging for Clams will very likely prove worthwhile!How to Claim Your ClamsStep 1 – Wallet InstallationVisit the Clams Client website to download and install the appropriate graphical client for your system.Step 2 (Optional) – Download Blockchain Bootstrap FileSyncing your Clam wallet with the current version of the blockchain can take a long time, particularly if you have a slow internet connection.To speed up the process, download this ~1.5 GB blockchain bootstrap as a file or torrent. Place this file within the same folder as your Clams wallet.dat file – use your OS’s search feature
