I'm wondering if
Bitcoin mining will ever come to an end. With the limited number of Bitcoins that can be mined, I'm curious to know if there's a point where mining will stop completely.

Once this limit is reached, no new Bitcoin will be created.

Miners, who are responsible for adding new blocks to the blockchain, will no longer earn rewards for their work.
