This is the 30 billion gold crossbow that got Diablo 4 trading suspended

Diablo 4's trading was suspended earlier this week, and it looks as though the culprit responsible is a crossbow worth 30 billion gold.

When Blizzard disabled Diablo 4's in-game trading earlier this week, it was in reaction to players spending an eye-watering amount of money on trading items. The developer was swift to disable in-game trading due to the devastating impact these figures could have on the in-game economy, and Blizzard only re-enabled trading after stamping out a gold duplication exploit.

A Discord user appropriately named "Poor guy" offered to pay 20 billion, and then a staggering 30 billion, for the item like it was loose change. However, they'd need three characters to trade the gold, since Diablo 4 characters are capped at carrying 9,999,999,999 gold individually.

It's a relief that Diablo 4's trading is once
