I want to know the upper limit of Bitcoin that can exist. Is there a cap on the total supply of BTC, and if so, what is the maximum amount of BTC that can be mined or issued? What is the maximum number of BTC?

Despite this cap, the actual number of Bitcoins in circulation may never reach 21 million.
