It sounds like it requires 40kB per transaction in the blockchain so that would limit things to 6 zerocoin tx per block or maximum 25 tx per 1MB block. Not practical with current bitcoin limitations. Let the altcoins play with it for a while.

I was under the impression that Zerocoin worked as an optional addon for Bitcoin?
So that those who want it can use it, and those that don't want it don't use it? Or is this not the case and the entire network would have to adopt it for Zerocoin to work with Bitcoin?

a beta version of something can't just be adopted by bitcoin. it needs to be tested and the bugs need to be worked out. maybe it will be adopted years from now

w3c, back in the 90's, made it so that everyone who uses the Web does so in a uniform way -- for the most part -- using standards and agreed upon protocols (xhtml, http, tcp/ip, etc.)
Do you think they were malicious in doing what they did back then?

Anyway, I don't think Bitcoin Foundation will "adopt" zerocoin. If they do it, US government and "banksters" will make more pressure to Bitcoin.
So, Zerocoin will be an useful tool for those who need it, no more.

will you buy and get more into bitcoin, if bitcoin foundation decide to adopt this when is stable?

Why we need some group of people to decide what we should use? Bitcoin Foundation is not a government.
If Zerocoin will be really useful for people, people will use it.
