What happens when there is so much halving that the reward for mining bitcoin is extremely low and the cost of verifying the blockchain for the miners exceeds the reward of their bitcoin?
I do not think this is possible. Reasons

1. Bitcoin is a deflationary currency, decreasing supply but increasing demand.

2. If bitcoin mining and transaction fee is not favoring today, it will favor tomorrow because bitcoin price is volatile. This encourages miners.
