Hi, I just joined this forum. I have searched various articles on bitcoin, altcoin, and the use of cryptocurrencies. In every article it is mentioned that bitcoin is only 21BTC to be mined. then my question is, What happens if all bitcoin (21 BTC) has been mined? Are miners going to mine alt? or supply will be added? please explain to me so that I can understand more.
Dont worry that much because the last bitcoin would be mined wont really happen on lifetime.Lol! Links had already been given above in talks about this kind of topic and would be worthy if you do just read it up for you to know the things that you do seek.
Answering on the topic, miners would still continue to work since they're primarily needed into the network on processing or pushing transactions and as said above they would instead increase up the fee
for them to make money.
