    This discussion reminds me of Strange block 74638[1] AKA CVE-2010-5139 where 92,233,720,368.54277039 BTC was generated and bitcoin blockchain need a hard fork. Therefore, the only constant in the history of Bitcoin is 20,999,999.9769 BTC, and as long as that does not change when the market capacity of Bitcoin was not 100 billion and it was not so famous, it will not happen in the future or when it has a high value.

    Therefore, it is true that Bitcoin will not reach 21 million, and we will not see anything like this in the future. The greatest danger is to create currencies less than Satoshi, which may happen if the value of Bitcoin is very large (we may not see this in 70 years).
