**2017**

- [2998033-006](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2998033-006) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Blockchain enabled services should expect the same incumbent resistance that sharing platforms encountered, so technical viability will not by itself produce rapid market acceptance.
  > future blockchain-enabled sharing services may not be accepted quickly and without resistance on the part of incumbents challenged by new ways of delivering a service or product.

**2021**

- [3995709-020](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3995709-020) [mechanism/argued] -- Cartelization of the code review industry causes significant overpricing, because clients will pay almost any price to obtain the stamp of approval from one of the top five audit firms.

  > Customers cannot afford to look for better priced code reviews and are forced into the cartel pricing to obtain market acceptance of their products. In turn, the cartelization of the market undermines any form of downward price pressure.
