but I mean, some of these scamcoins like the 42 coin - the source code for the whole coin doesn't even stop there from being more than 42 coins. the 'developer' might have thought that he was restricting it to only have 42 coins, but that says a lot about how much of a developer he was. are there really so many people investing so much money in something when they don't even have the foresight to look at the actual code that the coin uses, or find out anything even slightly real about it?
heh, nice setting MAX_MONEY (max size of money in one tx) but sort of forgetting to change GetBlockValue in a way to actually achieve the goal.
So it'll produce 31.536 coins/year forever
Could be a bit surprise in about 15 months to people who invested in the coin
But not as bad coding error as the Pennies (CENT) - small coding error and after stakes in Pennies started to appear, it would then put Zimbabwean dollar to a shame (wow, such a hyperinflation!)
And quite common bug is having the difficulty retargetting wrong and then getting killed by multipools.
