**Affirmed position.** ДЕЦЕНТРАЛІЗОВАНІ АВТОНОМНІ ОРГАНІЗАЦІЇ (ДАО), ЯК БЛОКЧЕЙН ДОПОМАГАЄ ЛЮДЯМ ПРАЦЮВАТИ НАД СПІЛЬНОЮ МЕТОЮ ТА ІНВЕСТУВАТИ, НЕДОВІРЯЮЧИ ОДИН ОДНОМУ brings decentralized autonomous organization into a setting described by the source as follows: Розібрано інвестиційне ДАО, як один з типів децентралізованих автономних організацій. This potentially extends Kaal's source-bound claim that In a decentralized autonomous organization a series of smart contracts grants token holders voting rights, so the blockchain-based smart contract performs the function that articles of incorporation or bylaws perform in a conventional company. The extension should be affirmed only after checking the work's methods, jurisdiction, evidence, and stated limitations.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31
