People have different views about already mined bitcoin but no one is clear about real situation. I think when bitcoin come closer to end mining then the developers will plan for next of its new project that bitcoin might not end but I dont think so that all the bitcoin will mine soon.
Most probably that developer enhanced the quantity of bitcoin in the system and by that time may be maximum would have been introduced bitcoin in their countries.
Nobody has different views on this thing.
Just dumb people, lazy ones that can't bother to user search for a second.
There are 16793825 coins mined as we speak.
And it's clear as it can be that you have no clue about the bitcoin supply and it's cap.
NOBODY is planning to "enhance" the quantity of bitcoins available. This is not Fiat!!!!!
it took a long time to reach 21M. but if bitcoin has reached 21M i think bitcoin will continue to work. and the effect, bitcoin prices will be very expensive because something rare will be very valuable.
And why the doubt?
After it reaches it max supply It will most probably be worthless. As it cannot accept micro-transactions anymore and this will cause many people lose interest in it. I see the price going down and the chain turning off.
What has the max supply to do with micro transactions?
There is absolutely no correlation between the two of them.
And how do you think the chain will turn off? Do you even have a clue what the blockchain is?
