- [3709041-034](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3709041-034) [design/argued] -- A distributed ledger of food origin and production methods would benefit not only consumers tracing food origin but would also help ensure the fair and sustainable treatment of food producers around the globe.

**2021**

- [3782201-001](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3782201-001) [normative/argued] -- Contrary to criticism that blockchains are designed to dodge regulation, the authors argue the actual goal of decentralized supply chain recording is effective, efficient, adaptive regulation that ultimately exceeds the current level of oversight.
  > Contrary to the criticisms that have been lobbed against blockchains as being designed to dodge regulation, the actual goal is to ensure effective, efficient, adaptive regulation in a truly decentralized manner, ul- timately exceeding the current level of oversight.
