BTC Blockchain buyout

Is it possible for corporate interests to incentivise securing alternate Blockchains instead of Bitcoin's Blockchain?Right, so this question is not the most popular (at least with Reddit) but I'm curious; given the large amount of funding and/or "partnerships" announced the last week or so where established companies like Paypal are getting into bed with Bitcoin whilst companies like Blickchain.info are getting significant "Blockchain development" funding

Blockchain president Peter Smith said:

“The company has grown exponentially in every way over the last 18 months. We are honoured to add investors and partners to the team with deep expertise in financial services and consumer technology.”

“We’re proceeding gradually, supporting bitcoin in some ways today and holding off on other ways until we see how things develop.”
