Wait for Zerocoin to boot BTC out.
You prefer an altcoin that requires centralised trust, over a decentralised Bitcoin? Smiley
Decentralized Bitcoin, which requires getting the permission of ~15 powerful individuals in order to have transactions confirmed; transactions which fully comply with the existing Bitcoin specifications and implementations?
Nobody is forcing you to run the reference client.
Fork it. Please.

And no, the Counterparty writeup is not an "existing Bitcoin specification".
For that claim, the developers should collaborate with the existing Bitcoin development community to formally define a BIP.
