These are all solutions (labor spreads) are things which would not exist for corporate business after globalization has homogenized the worlds populations and societies via open borders. [You can (and should) argue that it won't matter much as automation takes over.]
The winners would be the people who control the largest corporations at the time of a 'flip' to centralized economic control since they would step into those positions in the new regime. It seems that there is ample evidence that indeed, some of these people are the most active in furthering the globalization project. To a degree they use the resources of the corporations they control (and build new corporations) to do this, but it's not the main vehicle they use as I see it. They use governments (through lobbying, Epstien-esque methods, etc) and NGOs, and especially the combination of the two.

At a deeper (and to me much more interesting) level, it seems the case that their will be a homogenization and centralization of control. It's going to happen, folks, and about all we can hope for with distributed crypto-currencies is that they attenuate some people's flexibility in certain ways. The question is who will be in charge of 'it' (aka, the 'new world order')? There are two main factions as I see it:
- Resource based.
- Debt based.
The resource based folks favor smaller and more controlled populations; 'their' resources will go farther and they can induce artificial scarcity more effectively.
The debt-based crowd are better served by larger populations; there are more potential debt-slaves, and said debt slaves need the 'freedom' to most effectively service the debt that they've been saddled with.
Although highly simplified and inaccurate, these two groups could be represented by Rockefeller and Rothschild respectively.
The resource-based group has been out of the driver's seat since territory/feudalism times and the rise of modern banking, but they've had plenty of capability to set up for a recapture and have been working on it diligently for about 100 years. (The 'global warming' hoax is a minor and current artifact of their labors.) The debt-based crowd have more recently seen the danger and dug in for the fight (and Trump is a minor artifact of their reaction.)
The dynastic wealth, and even the primary combatants themselves to a large degree, have put bets on both sides. I suspect they will try for a sharing agreement since both sides are guaranteed a pretty big slice of pie (game theory.) They'll always be jockeying for an upper hand though, and ready to completely slit the throat of the other side if the opportunity presents itself.
globalisation will never homogenise, soon enough, there will be rich and poor segregating everything, also religious and national dna will continue, for through homogenisation it is now time to diversify nonwhite nonwestern countries like china, india and africa
