came across this problem with Stronghands,
100 % POS
current coinsupply around 70,016,993,565
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1195510.msg17710015#msg17710015basic issue is that Stronghands has a transaction limit of 2,000,000,000 coins, and at least one user has over that amount.
when they attempted to send 2.4 billion in one go, their client shat itself, and will not start up anymore.
yet to see if they manage to reclaim their coins
i have no idea if fixing that requires a fork or if it's purely wallet specific.It will require fork.
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/c0ddd32bf629bb48426b0651def497ca1a78e6b1/src/amount.h#L22/** No amount larger than this (in satoshi) is valid.
*
* Note that this constant is *not* the total money supply, which in Bitcoin
* currently happens to be less than 21,000,000 BTC for various reasons, but
* rather a sanity check. As this sanity check is used by consensus-critical
* validation code, the exact value of the MAX_MONEY constant is consensus
* critical; in unusual circumstances like a(nother) overflow bug that allowed
* for the creation of coins out of thin air modification could lead to a fork.
* */
static const CAmount MAX_MONEY = 21000000 * COIN;
inline bool MoneyRange(const CAmount& nValue) { return (nValue >= 0 && nValue <= MAX_MONEY); }
i also tried changing max_money in stronghands just to see.
