**2020**

- [3652481-003](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3652481-003) [definitional/asserted] -- Third generation DAOs are defined by taking an association or organization that already holds a legal construct with completed administrative paperwork and adding the DAO to that existing legal construct.
  > The third generation of DAOs considered an actual association or organization that already has a legal construct with completed administrative paperwork. The DAO itself was then added to the existing legal construct.

**2021**

- [3782191-004](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3782191-004) [definitional/argued] -- There is no single definition of decentralization: its meaning changes with the kind of decentralization, the industry or field, the application, and the overall context, so what applies to political decentralization may be irrelevant to technological decentralization.
  > The definition of decentralization changes based on the kind of decentralization, the industry or field, application, and the overall con- text.
