This morning I was talking about this with a buddy of mine.
Right now we have miners all over the world trying to solve this exponentially hard algorithm to earn their bitcoins. That is their incentive and that is what drives them to do so.
What happens when we remove that incentive to "mine" aka "verify transactions" on the blockchain? What I'm basically asking is what happens when we hit 21,000,000 bitcoins from the perspective of the miners?

I think the price of bitcoin can bump up high if it happen, the miners know it can happen sooner or later, so it is all calculated
I think it can happen not early than 10 years
Later that, the people can directing our "strenght" to other criptos
