Title: $.01 QR code becomes $1000.08 Post by: mogrith on October 23, 2013, 02:30:48 AM This is odd
http://www.mogrith.com/storage/post-images/QR%20and%20android.jpg I think the $.01 is too small and it went from 0.0000514905 BTC to 5.14905 BTC This is with a coinbase button at address in sig and a android coinbase wallet.

bitcoin:12WWoWbnNCPcGegxvkcgvMEKfsm1VfjJda?amount=5.149e-05&message=Cuz%20my%20random%20babbling%20is%20worth%20half%20a%20two%20cents%20worth Bitcoin URIs do not support scientific notation, and I don't know why Coinbase expected that to work. Bitcoin-Qt (rightly) gives an error when trying to parse this URI.

Bitcoin-Qt (rightly) gives an error when trying to parse this URI. They probably didn't do it on purpose, it's likely the default in android to switch to scientific notation at some number of decimals.

The bitcoin:12WWoWbnNCPcGegxvkcgvMEKfsm1VfjJda?amount=5.149e-05&message=Cuz%20my%20random%20babbling%20is%20worth%20half%20a%20two%20cents%20worth is what the QR code translates too. |
