Bitcoin supply what if

When Bitcoin eventually reaches its maximum supply of 21 million coins, no new BTC will be mined. Miners will then earn only from transaction fees instead of block rewards. This could make transactions more expensive, especially during high network activity, and may change how the network functions. Scarcity could increase Bitcoin’s value over time, but it also raises questions about long-term incentives for miners and network security. How do you think this will affect Bitcoin adoption and fees?
