I saw a discussion about this somewhere else. People were saying the money cap was 2 billion in coins. They were saying it was because of the highest interger in java coding. I don't know if thats true or not though.
the answer to that is already stated by MasterOfTheVortex.
I do not know if it is a fake or not. But that is the maximum amount of money in the game. 2,147,483,647 is the maximum value of a Java "int" number, for those of you who know programming stuff.
Max numbers are normally done with the bit values. 8 bits, the max is 127 or 255, 16 bits, its either 32767 or 65535, 32 bits, its either 2,147,483,647 or 4,294,967,295; depending on whether they're signed or unsigned.
But anyway, the Maximum amount of any item you can have in the game is 2,147,483,647.

Hm. I wonder if it'd be hard for Jagex to change the maximum amount of money.
No, it isnt. They literally just have to replace every occurance of "int" to "long" in their programming. Thats it.
technically, unless java becomes 64 bits or more, the money cap will stay as is. a bit can only have two values, 0 and 1, the only way is to increase the bits to 64 or more. that will need a lot of programming work to do.
