https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/FAQ#If_no_more_coins_are_going_to_be_generated.2C_will_more_blocks_be_created.3F There will always be the reward of the payment fees for 'mining' the next block. So there will be an incentive to run a 'miner'. And when bitcoin usage grows to the cash flow of a medium sized country, the payout will be better than that of a state lottery. And your lottery ticket is a one time purchase. Guido.
