Of course someone at some point is likely to create a bitcoin fork that stops further halving. The question is whether this fork will attract enough economic interest to survive. Without getting exchange listings and enough interested buyers, it will quickly perish. Most people realize that the 21M limit is what defines bitcoin, and its immutability is the essential difference from fiat currency. Any deviation from that doesn't deserve to be called bitcoin and will rightly be ridiculed. If bitcoin cannot securely endure on fees alone, then the capped supply experiment has failed, and it's time to switch to whatever is the most promising coin with a tail emission.
