There is more wrong with this code than only the missing check for the POW block reward.
So your chances to get a working coin again are:
a) fix that max POW block check too and hope there are no more surprises in the code
b) get a serious code review from a well known trusted coin dev so you know what else to fix
c) start again with a fresh copy from the clean(?), original source (not! the compromised code) and put your params and mods in
One thing is for sure. The dev is obviously not some idiot who doesn't know his head from a hole in the ground as some have suggested. He appears to be working hard to correct the issues, and by all accounts seems to have a high degree of competency in both coding and crypto.
What cracks me up, though, is all the people who are here saying this situation is marred beyond redemption. Have you people saying these things been in crypto for longer than a month? PRO is still listed and has good moments. URO, the most bizarre freak show of them all, still pumps. LIBRE, remember the FUD that almost wrecked that one? Coin after bozo coin gets blown away with fud, real or imagined, and comes back singing like a bird.
But on a deeper level, I have a news flash for you people: CRYPTO IS A SCAM. This stuff is almost entirely, to a coin, 100% useless. Have fun while you can, and stop hating on your neighbor.
