Let's take a look at some other popular coins on Poloniex:

Silkcoin
Maximum POW supply: ~45 million

Great, let's check the code:

Code:

static const int64_t MAX_MONEY = 2000000000 * COIN;

Uh oh, 2 billion is a lot more than 45 million! Better de-list SC right away!

Cinni
Total Coins: 15,000,000

Hmm...

Code:

static const int64 MAX_MONEY = 100000000 * COIN;

I'm not very good at math but I think 100 million may be slightly more than 15 million.

Strange that you never gave a shit about things like this before?

Arent Cinni and Silkcoin supposed to be unlimited POS with 15 million and 45 million POW coins respectively ?

While SuperCoin 50million total POW-POS coins ?

Technically SUPER has unlimited PoS as well. From their ANN thread:

Variable PoS payout:
   - 1st year: 100%
   - 2nd year: 50%
   - 3rd and subsequent years: 1%

So from the third year onward the stake reward will be 1% annually.

Edit: Just to be clear the MAX_MONEY variable is set higher than the total number of coins to account for what is technically "unlimited" inflation via Proof of Stake reward. In reality it would take many, many years for the total number of coins to reach that figure.
