Bitcon have 10 years, too much time to scale and not scaled yet, its a shame like says Roger Ver.
this moment for the altcoins, loosing bad, they are kicking our ass, they even talk about his coins in this forum called "Bitcointalk", we need to fight back and fast or else we will loose the war.
Bitcoin suddenly boomed up hence bitcoin didn't scale well. Now though? While not yet totally ready for microtrasactions, bitcoin is working fine. I could easily send BTC with only a fee of a few cents. Not to mention LN is moving fast. To be honest, most of the people that are saying that bitcoin is slow are the ones who doesn't actually use bitcoin to transact.
We all have our faith in LN that many important people says that will not work and the most important engineers work for free.
Bitcoin Foundation dont have money, lives from 10€/month each partner sends them and if you ask them some money to start a bitcoin project they say they dont have, so, why not to take the money that is lost to finance bitcoin evolution?
And where did you get those information? Can you point me to sources to prove these points?

If you think bitcoin is losing to altcoins then you simply don't understand bitcoin, and you're just probably one of those people who think that transaction fees are the only important factor in having a successful cryptocurrency. Even all the altcoins combined are still significantly dwarfed by bitcoin in terms of everything.
Bitcon is working fine because people starts to use other crypto or not using crypto anymore, look for the registry of daily transactions.
I myself stay more than 3 months (i said more than 3 mounths and i can prove it to you) waiting for confirmation of 1 transaction from December 2017 to March 2018, yeah, now its working fine, people stopped using it!

About LN everything is public, many important personalities of this market dont beleave in LN, i myself think its good idea but without block size scale at same time that will not work, LN will create more than 500 thousand transactions to open/close LN chanels and other transactions from people that will start using bitcoin but will want to transact ONCHAIN.
About engineers you can contact Elizabeth Starks enterprise or go to website and ask if they need blockchain engineers and how much can pay you!
About bitcoin foundation i myself have the emails about beeing partner, they take 10$/month.
I asked support for bitcoin projects they told me they are not supporting any projects in the moment! Maybe there is no money, bitcoin is very low

Its not transaction fees, its everything, bitcoin just have one thing better in this moment, a name that gives it hashrate support.
If the miners tomorrow decided to support BCH and forget BTC, even you and me would go after, biggest chain hashrate always win and like some say, this is not a 100mt run, this is a marathon, we never know the future.
Without developers to keep pushing and funds to support it no coin can win and bitcoin has been losing many support of many important enterprises, all them adopted BCH after saying many times they will not do it never (i remember and i have proves of Blockchain.com, Bitmain, etc) now they are using it and even Bitmain sold almost all bitcoins and bought BCH.
