What do you think? Is it possible?

The debate about the immutability of the maximum supply of Bitcoin at 21 million BTC has flared up again.

This happened after BlackRock published a video dedicated to the advantages of the first cryptocurrency.
In the video, the financial giant emphasized that, despite the current fixed supply of Bitcoin, its change is theoretically possible. Such a comment caused concern among a certain part of the crypto community.
“There is no guarantee that the limit of 21 million BTC will not be changed,” the published video says.

This position caused a mixed reaction among experts.

MicroStrategy co-founder Michael Saylor shared the video, which increased the wave of discussion on this topic.

Some analysts and users said that changing the limit would call into question the very idea of ​​​​a Bitcoin shortage.
Theoretically, the maximum supply can be changed through a hard fork if the consensus is supported by miners, developers and node operators.
However, such a decision will in fact lead to the creation of a new network with different rules, which many will not recognize as an original asset, experts believe.
