ETH is a scam now?
Altcoins aren't necessarily bad to bitcoin, I don't know why people have to be so negative about altcoins. Alts are a great experimenting ground for features that could make it into bitcoin.
IF Bitcoin would adapt anything, at all. They are quite stern on refusing progress.

In fact, bitcoin remains a super secure backbone in which a lot of other things can be built.
If you allow for easy change to the backbone (bitcoin), you compromise the strong security and the understanding of what bitcoin is...
In other words, some day many folks are going to come to realize that there is a lot of value in making it difficult to change bitcoin, which by the way is no where near any kind of broken condition...
In fact, the longer the passage of time, the more and more amazing it is becoming to see that bitcoin cannot be controlled or broken by folks demanding that it becomes easily changed... hahahahahahaha..
We already have easily changed payment system, and those are all of the other centralized payment systems... We can choose to use a variety of those other various payment systems if we want (and we perceive a personal benefit to such use) and those centralized payment systems can change whenever their centralized authorities want and to change them to and under whatever conditions they want to consider profitable, political, expedient or whatever other criteria they chose, including choosing to incorporate bitcoin into their models, if they were to so choose.
