Discussion: JSON formatted Numbers Are Different Form in uint64 vs uint128

[loloicci]

In JSON used in cosmwasm, uint64 is formatted as the number, and uint128 (in coin, for example) is formatted as the string. I think it is a little confusing.

How they are formatted in JSON should be unified in my intuition. But, it may be a problem with the max number of JSON (JS). The max integer JS can use is 2^53 -1 (I don't know why we can use uint64 as the number...).

The cosmos-sdk also uses 64 bit integer as string.

I'm not sure in the stargate version.
