While I am in the question asking mood. How will the remaining 8 billion get distributed?
-
what asset are you talking about?!
if you are talking about BTSX: maybe this helps:
https://github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx/blob/master/libraries/blockchain/include/bts/blockchain/config.hpp#L75
there will NEVER be more than 2B

From where you take these digits? :) BitSharesX has total supply 2,000,000,000 BTSX
-
Maybe he found that on my site, I've been wondering about that too actually. I might need to apply another ratio to find the maximum supply, IIRC I used the same ratio as for the current supply and it comes out as 10 billion.

Are you sure?
If there is not enough liquidity it is also possible for the network to "print" BTSX necessary to make great deals relative to a trusted feed."

If you have a look in the client at the assets tab you also find the maximum share supply 10 billion. No idea why this actually is.

But yes there are never going to be more than 2B BTSX so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Let me quote myself:

OK. Sounds like a non-issue. FYI I got it from here http://bitsharesblocks.com/assets

The maximum is a technical limit based upon 64 bit integers and double floating point precision rounded to a nice base 10 number.
For BTSX 2 billion is the max set by the social consensus.

So the 10 Billion Max was put into the software to make it possible ... in the future for the shareholders to vote to increase the supply?
