At the moment the miners for a block are awarded 12.5 BTC. Every 4 years this value will fall by half. For example, let's imagine that the prize value is 1.5 BTC for each block and that BTC's value against the dollar does not increase. In such a case, mining will not be very profitable.

At the same time, miners are also benefiting from the value of the fee. This time the fee values will increase. Then people will have to pay a high fee for bitcoin transfer. The biggest advantage of the Bitcoin system against banking systems was that they could shop without paying commissions to any brokerage house. If this happens, can bitcoin preference be reduced?

When there are ZERO rewards , the Fee Prices will be so high, people will move to other coins with cheaper fees and BTC will Die.

Cool

The transaction reward will increase and bitcoin will never die, but just some people are trying retire from the securing bitcoin network. Tongue
