On the BSC or ETH chain, what is the maximum total supply I can set when creating a token?

When I use PandaTool to create a token on BSC or ETH, what’s the largest total supply allowed? Can I set it to 10 quadrillion (10¹⁶)?

    This is a great question. Here’s the conclusion:
    If your token’s decimals (precision) are set to 1, then the maximum total supply you can set is:

    10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
    (that is, a 1 followed by 76 zeros).

    Of course, for each additional decimal place, you remove one zero.
    If you use the default 18 decimals, then the maximum total supply is a 1 followed by 58 zeros.

    So yes — setting your total supply to 10 quadrillion (or even much more) is absolutely fine.
