What would happen after all the 21 million bitcoins mined? How the transactions would be carried?
According to my calculations, I am sure I wouldn't be around for that to happen as the difficulty ratekeeps going higher and higher the more new miners enter the fray, I am wondering if the value will still continue to rise when there have been all mined or what.

The transactions should be carried in the same way as now. The difference is that now the miners get the block reward + tx fees and then they'll get only the tx fees. It's one of the reasons the Bitcoin price (or the fees) will have to rise enough to keep the mining profitable even in those years to come. In other words, there will be no bloack reward hence the profit in mining would solely dependant with transaction fees.

After all the 21 million bitcoins are mined miners will still continue to secure the network and get paid with transaction fees. I think bitcoin prices will moon then.

I was thinking that after all 21 million bitcoins are mined there are still bitcoins that all the miners can mine from the transaction fee that all the people around the wolrd evryday using but the amount of bitcoins become small and hard to mine

Yes since it would take around 140 more years before the last block of Bitcoin be mined. It's a very long time so we should not be bothered about this because all of us here are dead on that time. Too bad we cannot witness that to happen or maybe we are not sure if that will happen.

I think miners will get commissions, but they will be not new bitcoins, but will be all those received by someone earlier. To understand what will happen is necessary to look at the economy. In fact, something will come that looks like a gold standard.

After all the 21 million bitcoins are mined blocks continue to build up. Miners will receive fees only.

One thing may happen is bitcoins price will stable at a low to medium amount but will not rise up until demand comes up and supply got lost If the time that all bitcoins are mined, Nothing special will happen when all the Bitcoins are mined. The price of Bitcoin is determined by current demand to transfer value and expected future demand . The only way this will change is if a constant stable amount of value were continuously being transferred through the system, which would require significant real use. It will be at ease.

I wonder how a new block (without block reward) can still be added into the chain if all 21 million blocks are already mined. This new block can still meet the Proof of Work? Someone can explain it please thanks.

Bitcoin transactions will be processed, still, with mining. Miners will take profit from transaction fees alone since there won't be any bonus Bitcoin anymore for every successful block mined. I find this question odd since you're a Hero Member. I'll let other judge, for now.

Many think about the fate of bitcoin after all the bitcoin is mined, I think the transaction will run as usual now, but in terms of bitcoin prices will rise extraordinary due to a special item.

For Bitcoin, there is no parallel devaluation. If anything, Bitcoins should become more valuable over time as the number of Bitcoins entering the system decreases. Not only is the total supply of Bitcoins capped at 21 million, but the flow of new Bitcoins into the market has also been tapering off. Roughly every four years, the number of Bitcoins awarded for mining a block is cut in half. When Bitcoin miners “mine” a new block of transactions they are rewarded freshly minted Bitcoins. Originally, 50 Bitcoins were earned for mining a block. Then it dropped 25 Bitcoins, and then to 12.5 Bitcoins. In 2020, it’ll drop to 6.25 Bitcoins. Thus, while a government may constantly increase its money supply, Bitcoin has built-in features that encourage the exact opposite. The decreasing flow of new Bitcoins and the 21 million cap will help ward off inflationary pressures.

It is unequivocal that when bitcoin is over then the price will skyrocket. But it will not happen soon. I also think that capitalization will increase. Then the price will in general become very large at the limit of 50-100 thousand

Probably when all of the bitcoin is mined, it will become more of a rare thing, it will have a high price and it will pretty much be like gold right now, transactions will stay the same because miners need to check and confirm that a transaction that is sent, and they will still take fees for it, overall i think that satoshi has thought of everything and had a gerneral idea on how the bitcoin will work with its limited supply.

It may not take as long as these other posts are predicting. Technology is moving quickly so when more powerful processors are released so will the speed of mining. After the last one is mined, I would say price will rise even quicker!

The fees will most likely go way up and Bitcoin will be more of a store of value coin instead of a transaction coin. It will probably still be used to make large transactions....houses, cars, ect. Will be interesting how many miners stick around for that when the times comes.

The miners that want to get paid with Bitcoin can still get paid by mining Bitcoin after all the coins been mined. People should read the Whitepaper.

So every 4 years the price should be much higher than before. This will eventually make miners be able to make a living off transaction fees only, without no halving. Of course, unfortunately nobody reading this right now will live to see the day that all bitcoins are mined.
