Hello all!
i have been reading on a memory pool here
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_rules
and under References:
Note that when the transaction is accepted into the memory pool, an additional check is made to ensure that the coinbase value does not exceed the transaction fees plus the expected BTC value (25BTC as of this writing).

should it be when the transaction is accepted into the BLOCK?

Thank you.
Gol.

Yeah that note makes no sense at all. Coinbase transactions never get stored in the mempool. When a block is being verified, a check is made to ensure that the coinbase output value does not exceed the transaction fees plus the expected subsidy value (25BTC). (But a block is valid if it is less)
