What will happen with Bitcoin(original BTC) when all POW blocks end?
I understand that it maybe will require a lot of time to get the last of them
(I tell "maybe" because of really fast growth miners equipment progress),
but it will happen someday.
And without new blocks there are no new transactions.
So this blockchain will be totally exhausted.
What do you think what will the community do?
Bitcoin fork of Bitcoin?

When this happens, Bitcoin will simply be traded. The blockchain won't increase in size because of new blocks, but only because of trades.

Cool
Cure your cancer at home. Ivermectin, fenbendazole, methylene blue, and hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) are chief among parasite drugs. Find out that all disease is based in parasites or pollution, and what you can easily do about it - https://www.huldaclark.com/, https://thedrardisshow.com/, https://thehighwire.com/.

Yes, but then you can possibly to trade it inside of exchange platform and cann`t transfer it anywhere you want. Because without new blocks no new transactions available as I know. Right?

Well when  this happens, Bitcoin will simply be traded. The blockchain won't increase in size because of new blocks, but only because of trades.

Will miners process new blocks for moving BTC only? so their reward will only be Tx fees?
