When the last BTC is mined around 2140, what happens to the whole ecosystem? I mean, there won't be anymore incentives for the miners to verify and confirm transactions, right? The only reason miners confirm the transactions in the whole BTC ecosystem is to be rewarded with more BTC. No more BTC reward, no confirmations. Thoughts?
