As. companiss get near-total control over distribution rights to hashing power for a cryptocurrency, the process of mining will becomes more centralized, thought it may take 5-10 years.

Decentralization is the better model, but lacks the control which governments and corporations desire. The end users will have to continue to be the driving force behind the decentralized model or we will end up with most likely centralized currencies.
