Not all the oligarchs are anonymous. Joe Lubin [1] made billions off of co-founding Ethereum and is now personally funding a group of companies (ConsenSys umbrella) with ~1000 employees and growing. All in an effort to do massive amounts of R&D in this space. Personally, I think that is pretty cool.
