It bothers me that there are "investors" for this and a CEO.

What happens if it takes off? There's one or two founders and a couple investors that essentially control the flow of money in the system. Bitcoin was appealing precisely because it lacked a center control.

Is there something I'm missing here?

If they're making a decentralized currency and things are sane, then the code is all open source, and their authority is only in developing the official client.
