Bitcoin is valuable, attracting plenty of individuals who will claim to act in the name of a cause or mission. Many are simply seeking power or personal gain. Those who rise to the top often do so not through merit alone, but through luck or wealth. Businessmen, in particular, recognize opportunity when they see it and they seize it. Some individuals will start and come out unrecognizable after they are given this power and influence. This is the nature of humanity. The Bitcoin community is not immune to it.
