BLOBs. Anything longer than 64 bits should be BLOBs. Code which compares two values for identity (y == x) will still work correctly, but most other things will fail. I don't think you need to be considerate to anyone who uses a 65-bit hex literal. Hex is not a natural counting language for humans and anyone who uses it needs to be a programmer and think like a programmer.
