I don't understand. There should be a way to create new bitcoins (increasing the amount of existing bitcoins, that is how it gains its value), because creating bitcoins is allowed until 2140. After that, there will be only exchanging.

All 21 Million bitcoins are already existing, miners just find them (referred to as minting) and add them in what we currently can use right now.
