A few of us on the IRC came to some of these conclusions hours ago: http://www.reddit.com/r/flappycoin/comments/23ebay/devs_where_is_the_new_wallet/cgwaahm

This thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=108716.0) contains a list of people who provide escrow services to BCC members, although you'll probably need to convert your BC to BTC first. Some charge a small fee (usually 1%); others don't. If you get in touch with one of them, you'll probably generate more interest. Alternatively, you could set an assurance contract with a threshold of X BC and gather pledges from people to donate, e.g. kickstarter.

Also, make sure to post this in the official Blackcoin thread if you haven't already. If there isn't a pre-existing bounty or one of the devs isn't already working on one, you should be able to find out there.

Have you contacted someone to hold the donations in escrow for us yet? If you do and they post here with the proper address, I'll contribute.

Are you really that ignorant of tech history? Gates bought Q-DOS from another programmer named Tim Paterson for $50,000 and furnished it to IBM after negotiating the rights to license the OS to third party OEMs. IBM agreed to this deal in large part because they saw the rights as worthless. Yet more than anything else, it was that arrangement that allowed Microsoft to prosper into the entity it is now.

If you think what made Gates successful was his programming vision, then what you are in effect saying is that his role in the growth of personal computing was actually interchangeable. After all, there would have been no shortage of people that IBM could have found to develop their BASIC computers and/or DOS PCs. It takes a shrewd entrepreneur to recognize the opportunity Gates did. And that, I believe, is precisely X's point.  (Jobs also did something distinctly similar, first with Atari and then Xerox.)
