Interesting. I think we have had one form of central planning or another since agriculture began. The centralization has mostly increased during that time, but without control of the money supply I anticipate the trend to reverse.
Only time will tell. It's up to us to create robust networks which oppose centralization.
A few generations from now there may be less desire to maintain decentralization and the system could falter, but I don't think so. I think the lessons learned from the bitcoin era will continue to echo as long as there is life on this planet.
