If fat ppl and ginger ppl were to face genocide in a country, don't think for one second that other countries wouldn't get involved. That's not how the world works. People would say it's not fair. Before you knew it, the other countries would kill off their own fat ppl and ginger ppl so that they wouldn't have to keep them around either.
But it would be by consensus - thats the important issue....

To be fair all we would have to do to take care of the gingers is ban sun tan lotion.

Wow straight from the troll talking points rebuttal book "Troll being anyone who has a different view to you?"
Fine, you're not a troll, you're just an asshole.
You obviously know 21 million is as concrete as anything in Bitcoin, the fact that the code can change it with consensus is at most a red herring by you. Otherwise you have already proven you have at best a sketchy understanding of how the Bitcoin community works.
Name calling now eh? You are only becoming angry because you believe in the triumph of unbounded hope over reality. I'm just your 'memento mori', reminding you that bitcoin may not make you the millionaire you hope to be. Again, my original point was that the future value of bitcoin is being predicated to a large extent on the 21m cap, a belief based on faith more than reality.

Quite simple really... do it, if it is such a given, in reality do it, do it now, make it so... prove what you say. Prove you can make this change and Bitcoin still be Bitcoin, prove it is possible. Otherwise you are in strawman territory arguing semantics. We do not need to prove what already is because it already isIf you want to prove what is not so, then it is down to you to prove it. The beauty of this is, is that all of the tools you need, are available to you right this second. Make it so. Prove you could make this change, and that Bitcoin, will still be Bitcoin, because as has been pointed out to you... it will not be, it will be something other than Bitcoin. Really, please, do it or..... You are wrong.

I think it's predicated mostly on the belief that the majority of people (miners in this case) will act rationally. I would say that most miners consider the 21M coin cap to be a defining characteristic of Bitcoin, and probably the most important characteristic that gives the coin value. If you accept that premise, then it is logical to assume that miners will not act irrationally by destroying the value that is their whole incentive for mining in the first place.

I'm not angry (well not with you at least). I don't need Bitcoin to make me a millionaire, and I sure as hell don't need you to talk me down from some unbounded hope. Reality is Bitcoin is always going to have a 21m cap. If that changes it won't effect the price negatively, otherwise it won't happen. Future value already accounts for the slim possibility of a cap increase, its priced in, and no one believes it will happen. Time for lunch, welcome to ignore, sorry if I hurt your feelings calling you a name.

Yeah it's very scary to see a miner about to dump their 0.5 BTC they mined the past month with their 2TH mining rig lol.

He is right in that it is technically possible, but he underestimates the obstacles to this happening. However, I can imagine a time in the future where the ruling consensus is that Bitcoin needs to start the printing press again because it has grown too big for its 21 million and many decimal points. But by then Bitcoin has taken off big time and we'll all be dead or millionaires/billionaires.
