Indeed, I know that bitcoin has a commensurate distribution flow plan effected by the levels of block difficulty. But what I still don't get is what will eventually happen when circulating supply equals total supply of bitcoin to be mined.


Secondly what happens to bitcoin miners?

The miners will be paid transaction fees and If we ever reach the 21M supply, that would mean that bitcoin adoption is at its highest so fees will actually be worth a lot.
