It seems reasonable to assume that 21 million will remain the cap. There was already an episode of fighting over whether to change the protocol or not and that result in a split of the software and a new virtual currency...BitCoin Cash. Then similarly BitCoin Cash split.

It seems basically impossible that all/enough of the Bitcoin decision makers would agree to a code change that dilute the original coins given how loose of an organization it is...if one can even call it that.

But new digital currencies can always be made that potentially will indirectly dilute bitcoin (bitcoin forks or brand new). But bitcoin has the advantage of momentum and there seems to be no end that advantage at the moment.
