The power Above the crown !
Those knuckleheads probably can't rule anything..
If you are a mastermind ruler, why in the world would you make yourself conspicuous with a crown?
The origin as someone pointed out is from the Roman Empire and later adopted by the Holy Roman Empire and before that the Hittites.
Byzantine Empire
The Byzantine Empire, also referred to as the Eastern Roman Empire, was the continuation of the Roman Empire in the East during Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, when its capital city was Constantinople
The problem occurs when people attempt to attach hidden meanings and conspiracies when there is no evidence.
- House of Habsburg
The House of Habsburg, or House of Austria, was one of the most influential royal houses of Europe. The throne of the Holy Roman Empire was continuously occupied by the Habsburgs between 1438 and 1740. The house also produced emperors and kings of the Kingdom of Bohemia, Kingdom of England (Jure uxoris King), Kingdom of France (Queen consort), Kingdom of Germany, Kingdom of Hungary, Empire of Russia, Kingdom of Croatia, ..Kingdom of Ireland (Jure uxoris King), Kingdom of Portugal, and Habsburg Spain, as well as rulers of several Dutch and Italian principalities.

...why do the Masons show the pyramid with the top really squared off...
We do not. That symbol appears no where in Masonry.
Now is your chance to own a piece of Masonic history. For the first time ever, the World Conference of Grand Lodges is being held in Washington D.C. This limited edition coin made of fine silver is a delight for collectors and historians alike, with details of the World Conference logo on one side and the much talked about "Novus Ordo Seclorum" and unfinished pyramid, as seen on the back of the U.S. one dollar bill, on the other. Don’t miss this opportunity!"
Today, the Eye of Providence is often associated with Freemasonry. The Eye first appeared as part of the standard iconography of the Freemasons in 1797, with the publication of Thomas Smith Webb's Freemasons Monitor.[7] Here, it represents the all-seeing eye of God and is a reminder that a Mason's thoughts and deeds are always observed by God (who is referred to in Masonry as the Great Architect of the Universe). Typically, the Masonic Eye of Providence has a semi-circular glory below the eye. Sometimes the Eye is enclosed by a triangle.

I was actually referring to the secret leaders...
Perhaps but not necessarily masons but clearly Masons DO have the eye in the pyramid which could represent the missing capstone.
