Could you elaborate on the implications when a cryptocurrency reaches its maximum supply? I'm curious about how this might affect its market value, trading dynamics, and long-term prospects. Will the scarcity of new coins drive up prices? Or might it stagnate due to a lack of further incentives for miners? Are there any risks associated with such a milestone, such as increased volatility or potential forks in the blockchain? Your insights into this topic would be greatly appreciated.
