# Traceability `kaal:entity:traceability` **Status.** derived This node is assembled mechanically from the 5 claims that carry the concept tag `traceability`. It is a roster of what the corpus says under this term. It is **not** an adjudicated definition: no single statement here has been ruled canonical, and no first-appearance call has been made. Read the claims and judge for yourself. ## Every claim under this term 5 claims across 5 works, 2017 to 2025. **2017** - [2992962-023](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2992962-023) [mechanism/argued] -- The legacy infrastructure bridge between fiat and crypto currencies accelerates the growth of the blockchain based economy and infrastructure, but it cannot curtail the anonymous nature of that economy. > The legacy infrastructure bridge (fiat to crypto currencies) accelerates the growth of the blockchain-based economy and infrastructure but cannot curtail its anonymous nature.

Using public blockchains in commerce makes every and all transactions publicly visible and traceable for consumers and the government alike. Craig Calcaterra, Wulf A. Kaal, Vadhindran K. Rao, Stable Cryptocurrencies (2019).
