Bcash proponents believe that Blockstream is compromised by the new world order because one of the investors is AXA and the CEO of this company is a member of the Bilderberg Group. It is indeed true that AXA is invested in Blockstream, but it is highly unlikely that they can steer the entire Core team in their direction through this. Also, if you look closer to the Bcash team, there are way more reasons for conspiracy theories.
The Blockstream story
Blockstream is funded by many companies and one of them is AXA, an insurance company with a CEO who is suspected to be one of the figures of the New World Order because he is a member of the Bilderberg Group. I agree he could be a globalist and not the kind of person we want to see influence Bitcoin, but I never believe he is able steer the entire Core team with an investment of 55 million dollars
The investment makes sense
Bitcoin development is not funded through ICO’s or other easy money grabs, most of the devs work totally voluntary and hope to earn something on the appreciating of their Bitcoin holding when they improve the network. Blocksteam is a company and have to earn money on writing mostly open source code, so a funding is welcome from whatever the source is. It is understandable that Blockstream accepts funding from any company because they simply need the funds to create code that is mostly unprofitable, at least in the short term.

When you look at the investments of AXA, inclusion of Blockstream makes a lot of sense. They are also invested in IA, wearables, software security, telecommunication and more, sidechain technology is simply a valuable addition to a package of tech that can optimise the efficiency of their business model greatly and keep them ahead of competition. Blockstream is only one of the 31 companies they invested in.
What is their evil plan to compromise the alcohol test app industry or the wearable tech? Aren’t it just smart investments to stay ahead?
Blockstream is only a small part of Core
Only a few of the hundreds of Core devs work for Blocksteam and Gregory Maxwell, one of the three most famous devs just left. It is highly unlikely that a few devs are compromised by AXA and influence hundreds of other devs in a permission less system where everyone can contribute.
Are Bcash leaders true anarchists?
It often surprised me that nobody else is questioning the Bcash leaders, they are all worshipped as great anarchists by there followers, Bcash became the first choice of many in the community. If you take a closer look, doubt will arise. A small disclaimer: I don’t claim that these people have bad intentions, but only that a conspiracy theory about them is WAY more likely to be true than about Blockstream.
Roger Ver
Roger Ver is always talking about anarchism, but he is an early and big investor in Ripple, the by anarchist hated ‘banking coin’. Ripple is against everything that Bitcoin and voluntarism stands for, and Roger invested big in it. Roger bought probably 22,725,000 XRP in 2013 what is valued today at 13,862,250 USD. Having a big investment like that in a banking coin being an anarchist is way more suspicious than Blockstream being a tech company receiving funding from an insurance company.
Roger bought for 250.000 dollar XRP (BANKERCOIN) on 30 September 2013, worth today almost 14 million
Craig Wright
Craig Wright or Faketoshi is applying for hundreds of Bitcoin and blockchain patents through his companies. When one thing is against the anarchist vision (and Satoshi’s vision as well) it is patents, especially in a world of open source software. Asking the government to give you the monopoly over certain tech by force. SHAME!

Gavin Andresen
According to Bcash proponents, Gavin Andresen was the by satoshi appointed dev to take over the Bitcoin project, but if you dig back in history you will find out that Satoshi left the project because Gavin gave a presentation about Bitcoin to the CIA. Beside the principles, it is extremely risky to inform the CIA in a time that Bitcoin was still flying under the radar and relatively easy to destroy or compromise. I think this is extremely suspicious, the chance that Gavin is compromised by the CIA is way bigger than the chance that Blockstream (and let alone the entire group of Core devs) are compromised by AXA.

Conclusion
Almost all the important people in Bcash have had very questionable actions in the past that really doesn’t match with the voluntary vision where Bitcoin is build on. I believe they don’t hate the elite (NWO) because they want freedom for humanity, but only because THEY want to be the elite and rule over the common man with a centralised and thus controllable alt coin (Bcash).
Also, I think the Bcash devs are the frustrated ones that were not good enough to work on Bitcoin (See the flawed EDA / drop off of 20% of the nodes in the last fork) and moved to the anti movement. The fact that EVERYONE can contribute and review as well in Core makes it very unlikely that they are rejected, they just weren't good enough. Let alone the possibility that Core is compromised.
Don't fall for Bcash when you are freedom minded, it is centralised and will be controlled by corrupted and power hungry people, the real innovation for freedom is BITCOIN!
