Aug 28, 2017 at 18:57 comment added Jestin I know what you meant, but it could be confusing to someone. Any statement that says "Since it is a fork of Bitcoin, blahblahblah is true" is technically inaccurate. Sure, blahblahblah may be true, but not because it is a fork. Hard forks can do anything. Since this is a technical question and answer site, this answer is fairly misleading. I recommend editing this to state that although multiple protocol rules were changed, the 21 million limit was not one of them.
Aug 28, 2017 at 18:50 comment added Christoph Winter @Jestin Yes thats true. What I meant by this is because it was not changed by the fork, it inherits the previous limit from before the fork.
Aug 27, 2017 at 17:48 comment added Jestin This is not true, and is a bad assumption. Because a hard fork allows you to change any of the protocol rules, there could easily be a hard fork that changes the 21 million coin limit. When it comes to a hard fork, every previous assumption is off the table. That's what makes it a hard fork.
