Does Bitcoin have a max supply?

Around 19 million bitcoins have been mined, leaving only 2 million to be mined in the future. Experts predict that the remaining bitcoins will be mined by 2140 .

The main implication of approaching and ultimately reaching bitcoin’s supply cap will be that mining will become far less profitable . But the process will be drawn out over more than a century. Bitcoin miners will still be rewarded at that point, but only through transaction fees and not from newly minted coins.26 Oca 2022

There will never be more than 21 million bitcoin . This limit, known as the hard cap, is encoded in Bitcoin’s source code and enforced by nodes on the network.

Bitcoin has a maximum supply of 21 million coins , the last of which was forecast to be mined around the year 2140 back in 2017 – with the assumption that the rate of mining halves every four years.
