I keep telling you, if you want to see a hoard of devs, copy-paste or otherwise, lets have a c++ version.

And I will tell you again, it was started as a C++ version two years ago:

https://github.com/killerstorm/bitcoin/tree/cbtc

I implemented it in about a week.

I guarantee half the altcoin forum will be on this in a matter of weeks.

I don't see how that helps. Very few changes made by alt-coiners get back to Bitcoin Core, as most of those changes are risky, silly or not well-thought-out.

Look at all the suggested improvements for bitcoin that made it to alts first (some that btc is only incorporating now).

Well, compare number of commits which Bitcoin Core devs add to Bitcoin Core: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commits/master

To a number of commits which come from alt-coin devs to Bitcoin Core.

Eve the UI designs you see in alts have more functionality and features as well as creative looks.

UI designs are easy to make.

Well, anyway, we will soon have a web/mobile wallet which is easy to integrate with alt-coins... In fact, it can also work with multiple alt-coins in one wallet.

TO BITCOIN, which lacks the "incentive" you so rightly mentioned.

true since most of it is garbage but some ideas are actually quite good.

I guess that will bring use to it, but i'm not sure about development.
