Welcome to the forum
Firstly it's not 21 BTC, it's 21 million BTC otherwise it would mean I belong to the Elite =)
If all bitcoins have been mined, no more bitcoins will be added and obviously miners won't mine it anymore. But beside hashing, miners will still be needed to validate transactions and the fees will be the incentives

Hi, I just joined this forum. I have searched various articles on bitcoin, altcoin, and the use of cryptocurrencies. In every article it is mentioned that bitcoin is only 21Million BTC to be mined. then my question is, What happens if all bitcoin (21Million BTC) has been mined? Are miners going to mine alt? or supply will be added? please explain to me so that I can understand more.
