**2019**

- [3409548-022](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3409548-022) [condition/argued] -- Managers of funds that exist entirely in cyberspace cannot assume they are judgment proof; the practical consequence of operating across a global node network is exposure to more regulation, not less.

**2026**

- [7596939-034](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/7596939-034) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Direct standing fails completely against a judgment-proof deployer that can alter its agent cheaply and undetected, failing as surely as a bribable guardian.
