    The first rule of dev club is:
    Don’t use float for currency.

    The second rule of dev club is:
    Don’t use languages that don’t have non-float numbers.

    If they didn’t do this cleanly, I wonder what else they messed up.

    Crypto, advanced mathematics with a SQL attack (assuming they are as easily 'hacked' as most database abusers), a very specific foreign currency... finding their exchange rate update patterns and writing an algorithm to constantly crosscheck between their source of info and the sites innate update timings (using other highly specific scripts and factoring in latency on all ends ofc) then trigger the payment accordingly....i could go on... but as ive realised im procrastinating by answering a pointless question literally in various iterators... i should stop :(

    @-red my question is why is their db config so wasteful ...that length shouldnt exist anywhere!

    Database abuse, it gets me everytime.

    I bet they have unnecessary imports too!
