- [3782210-044](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3782210-044) [condition/argued] -- A revolutionary new system of decentralized governance is a precondition for the Web3 vision succeeding, and because efficiency requires stability, the steering mechanisms must be subtle.
  > Before any of this Web@ vision of the future has a chance of success, we need a revolutionary new system of decentralized governance.

- [3808859-031](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3808859-031) [condition/asserted] -- Tokenizing an existing real-world asset such as fractional real estate cannot be done without a sufficient depth of decentralized infrastructure solutions.
  > Tokenization of existing assets, for instance, tokenized real estate is the instantiation of a fractural part of the respective piece of real estate as a whole, requires a certain depth of decentralized infrastructure solutions.

- [3808859-038](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3808859-038) [condition/argued] -- Decentralization requires its own infrastructure; the technologies of the internet era and its progeny alone may not suffice, and fully decentralized technologies require an enhanced decentralized network infrastructure.
  > Decentralization requires its own infrastructure. The technologies of the internet era and its progeny alone may not suffice. Fully decentralized technologies require an enhanced decentralized network infrastructure.

- [3808859-040](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3808859-040) [condition/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Without basic decentralized infrastructure products in place, on-chain governance of blockchains is not possible or is only limitedly possible, and the blockchain ecosystem may not be able to grow without a core decentralized infrastructure such as a functioning public blockchain to build on.
  > Without such basic infrastructure products, on-chain governance of blockchains may not be or may only limitedly be possible.
